Place the accessory tray on the center support brace of

the tripod and align the holes on the tray with those on

the support brace.

Insert the wingnut screws through the bottom of the

tripod support brace and thread them into the accessory

tray holes (See figure 3).

With the accessory tray in place, the tripod will be much

more stable, making it easier to attach the telescope.

Installing the Counterweight Bar

With the mount securely in place, you are ready to attach some of the accessories (the telescope tube will be

added last). Start with the Counterweight Bar and Counterweight. Used to balance the telescope, the

Counterweight Bar attaches to the opposite side of the mount as the telescope. To install the Counterweight

Bar:

Locate the exposed threads on the end of the Counterweight Bar.

Thread the Counterweight Bar into the declination shaft of the mount. It threads into the mount

opposite the telescope tube.

The Counterweight Bar is now installed.

Installing the Counterweight

With the counterweight bar in place, you are ready to attach the counterweight.

Remove the safety thumbscrew on the end of the counterweight bar.

Loosen the counterweight lock screw (on the counterweight itself) so that the central hole of the

counterweight is unobstructed.

Slide the counterweight onto the counterweight bar. Move it forward to the center of the

counterweight shaft.

Tighten the counterweight lock screw to hold it in position.

5. Replace the safety screw on the end of the counterweight bar. The thumbscrew will

prevent the counterweight(s) from sliding off the bar should they ever become loose.

Attaching the Slow Motion Knobs

A slow motion knob is provided for both the Right Ascension and Declination axis.

2. Locate the Right Ascension slow motion shaft (opposite of the chrome spur gear next to the R.A.

setting circle).
