  Beam de­sign and beam op­tics stud­ies for the HIE-ISOLDE trans­fer lines have been car­ried out in MadX, and bench­marked against Trace3D re­sults. Mag­net field er­rors and align­ment im­per­fec­tions lead­ing to de­vi­a­tions from de­sign pa­ra­me­ters have been treated ex­plic­itly, and the sen­si­tiv­ity of the ma­chine's lat­tice to dif­fer­ent in­di­vid­ual error sources was stud­ied. As a re­sult, the tol­er­ances for the var­i­ous er­ror-con­tri­bu­tions have been spec­i­fied for the dif­fer­ent equip­ment sys­tems. The de­sign choices for the ex­pected mag­net field and power sup­ply qual­ity, align­ment tol­er­ances, in­stru­ment res­o­lu­tion and phys­i­cal aper­ture were val­i­dated. The method­ol­ogy and re­sults of the stud­ies are pre­sented.
