Finally, let us consider the remaining case.
A closed orientable flat Seifert 3-orbifold has point orbifold diffeomorphic to 222 if and only it appears in the following table:

Two of those Seifert fibred orbifolds are orientation-preserving diffeomorphic if and only if they are in the same line of the table.
Again we will divide the proof in four steps.
Step 1: The base orbifold must be |$\ast 2222,2\!\ast\!22,22\ast$| or 22 ×.
Step 2: All possible Seifert invariants for a fibration of |$\mathcal{O}$| are listed in the table.
As in the previous case, using Theorem 3.8 one can check that those listed in the statement are all the possible Seifert fibrations with base orbifold as in Step 1.
Step 3: Seifert orbifolds in the first three lines are orientation-preserving diffeomorphic.
On the left a fundamental domain for the action is shown, and on the right the quotient |$ 22\ast$| is shown.
On the left a fundamental domain for the action is shown, and on the right the quotient |$ 2\!\ast\!22$| is shown.
A fundamental domain is shown in Figure 15, and |$\mathbb{R}^2/\Gamma_{[e_2]}$| is diffeomorphic to |$ 2\!\ast\!22$|. As in the previous case, since |$(2_02_1\ast_1)$| does not have vertex points, all local invariants of the fibration f2 over a corner point must be |$1/2$|. Moreover the singular locus of |$(2_02_1\ast_1)$| has two connected components, which implies that the local invariant for f2 over the cone point must be |$1/2$|. Indeed, if it was |$0/2$|, then the fibration |$(2_0\ast_12_12_1)$| would have three connected components, see Figure 18 (E). Therefore |$\mathbb{R}^3/\Gamma$| is diffeomorphic to |$(2_1\ast_02_12_1)$|, where the boundary invariant is determined by Remark 3.13 as before.
On the left a fundamental domain for the action is shown, and on the right the quotient 22 × is shown.
Figure 16 shows a fundamental domain, and |$\mathbb{R}^2/\Gamma_H^{[e_1]}$| is diffeomorphic to 22 ×. Since the singular locus |$(2_12_1\ast_0)$| has two connected components, the local invariant over a cone point for the fibration f1 is necessarily |$0/2$|. Therefore |$\mathbb{R}^3/\Gamma$| is diffeomorphic to |$(2_02_0\overline\times)$|.
Step 4: The orbifolds |$(\ast_12_02_02_12_1)$| and |$(2_0\ast_02_02_0)$| are orientation-preserving diffeomorphic.
By construction, Γ has a translation in the invariant direction |$[e_3]$|, |$G=\Gamma_H^{[e_3]}$| and the fibration |$f_3:\mathbb{R}^3/\Gamma\to\mathbb{R}^2/\Gamma_H^{[e_3]}$| induced by the parallel lines with the direction |$[e_3]$| is equivalent to the fibration |$(\ast_12_02_02_12_1)$|.
The singular locus of |$(\ast_12_02_02_12_1)$|, which has S3 as underlying manifold, and all the edges have the singularity index equal to 2.
Step 5: The orbifolds in different lines are not diffeomorphic.

The orbifolds in (A)–(C) and (E) have S3 as underlying manifold; the one in (D) has underlying manifold |$\mathbb R P^3$|. All the edges have the singularity index equal to 2. In (E) we can recognize the Borromean link, see also [18, Example 13.1.5] for a nice description of this orbifold. The figures (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) represent the singular set of the orbifolds |$(2_0\ast_02_02_0)$| |$(\ast_02_02_02_02_0)$| |$(\ast_12_02_12_02_1)$| |$(2_1\ast_12_02_0)$| and |$(2_0\ast_12_12_1)$|, respectively
All the orbifolds in the first column of Table 2 can be distinguished using the information from the last two columns, with two exceptions.
|$(2_0\ast_02_02_0)$| and |$(\ast_12_02_12_02_1)$| have the same number of vertex points and components of the singular locus, but they are not diffeomorphic since in the former all vertex points lie in one connected component of the singular locus, while for the latter they are in different components. See Figure 18(A) and (C).
|$(2_02_1\ast_1)$| and |$(2_12_1\ast_0)$| have the same number of vertex points and components of the singular locus. Suppose by contradiction that they are orientation-preserving diffeomorphic. Since each of them has two inequivalent fibrations, there would exist a flat orbifold with four inequivalent fibrations with point orbifold equal to 222. This is impossible by Proposition 5.4 and Step 1, since such an orbifold can have at most three inequivalent fibrations, one for each invariant direction.
