Subject: [Leica] How to use a T4 adapter for "SL"

I have a Soligor T4 adapter marked SL, which I assume is for  the Leica SL. 
I 
also have an identical one made by Vivitar. Neither came with SL  
instructions, but with instructions how to use what it called  the T4 
"Universal 
Automatic System" for lenses made by Miranda, Nikon,  Pentax and Canon. I 
tried to 
make it work by following the instructions I  have but since I do not own 
any R 
Leicas, I am not sure how to use it. 
   The metal adapter is black on one side and says Patents  Pending, Japan, 
Soligor [or Vivitar] and Set Pin Here. The other side has a  satin chrome 
finish and what must be the Leica-R bayonet mount. 
   Anybody know how to make it work? TIA -- bob  cole
