Mr.Q ,

There are special tools which ought to be used for the procedure which you describe .

Sadly , in the cases of most of the binoculars discussed in this forum , requiring alignment adjustments , spinning the objective lenses alone would NOT solve the problems encountered .

Kind Regards
Kenny
