Experiments and calculations are described which test the effects of misalignments in the Michigan radial sector FFAG betatron. In the experiments, one magnet is moved and the equilibrium orbit deviation measured. The calculations are done in the "hard-edge" approximation, where the effects of magnet edges are approximated by impulsive lenses. Agreement between theory and experiment is considered good.
