The authors aim to reproduce single-particle level spins and parities of odd-A nuclei by adjusting the strength parameter lambda and the radius parameter (r0)so of the spin-orbit part of the deformed Woods-Saxon potential. Discussion is concentrated on the A>or=210 nuclei for which comparison with the extracted experimental level spacing is done. In addition, parametrisation of the deformed Woods-Saxon potential is discussed for A=40-110 nuclei (the nuclei with 110<or=A<or=210 were studied in a previous paper). In the adjustment procedure experimental equilibrium deformations beta 2 (and beta 4, if known) are taken into account. The parameters lambda and (r0)so are subjected to smooth variations only in order to preserve the overall character of the single-particle spectrum and not to disturb the sequence of spins and parities in the neighbouring nuclei.
