Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / Assembly manual
Spanish term or phrase: rayas
"Colocar las rayas del eje al par del orificio" - in a section on the assembly of camshaft bushes. I'm not sure where "par" fits in here, but that's another question!

Explanation:
As you are in doubt as to the use of "par", I guess you meant to add the whole phrase in your question.

in this case I think "al par" means "in line with"

It could be said that "rayas" is "lines", but if you use the verb "line up", then perhaps: "line up the marks of the axis with the hole"

just line up the marks with the mounts on the back of your pictures, then place the level against the wall http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-BDSL10-36-Inch-Gecko/dp/B...

Line up the marks with the blade of a circular saw and cut the frame out with a circular saw.

The marks should line up when the optical tube is parallel to (in line with) the RA axis
