I have to collimate 21mm, 50mm, 85mm, 180mm Zuiko by a change increment of +0.5mm

Can I go that far by adjustment(no shim)?

Do they all have the same adjustment mechanism? Where is it? What do I do?

I have the tools.

I adapted two so far to Sigma SA mount plates but I used a 0.5mm spacer. I would like to skip the spacer because that takes machining and drilling.

Thanks.

Is there something behind the name band, or is it those tiny screws under the rubber band?
