Install machine gun in mount. Center machine gun in shield slot. Place two 1/16-1/8 inch (2-3 mm) thick spacers (4) between blocks and shield plate so pintle flange is 1/16-1/8 inch (2–3 mm) below shield plate. Using a level, check to see that pintle flange (3) and shield plate (1) are level. Make sure machine gun is still centered in slot. Remove machine gun. Use a welding machine and tack weld pintle flange to shield plate (1) in four places.
