About
When these were still in active use, periscopes were attached by inserting the unit into the corresponding brackets and lifting the hook part into place. After that, they were tightened into place with the knurled roller. If, during a battle, one of the two glass lenses shattered, the lens could be quickly removed and replaced by opening the side knobs near the damaged lens on the periscope, which released the lens for replacement. Another option was to replace the entire periscope.
