Mounting Description
Accessories and ConditionsThere are 10 unit telescopesEach unit will have accessories, i.e. a set of eye-piece (5, 9, 15, 20, 25 and 40 mm)Flip mirrorTelescope mounting position is already in N-S alignmentAstronomy practical test will be held at nightStudents private items should be prepared (jacket, medicine, etc.)
How to control the telescopeManual operation by lock/unlock clamps
Students will doLock/unlock R.A. clamp and Declination clamp (screw) on the both side of the mounting telescope (see mounting picture)Focusing telescope on the back side of the optical tube, if necessary.Choosing appropriate eye-piece
R.A. and Declination clampsTelescope will not move when R.A. and Declination clamps are tightenUnlock clamp one by one either R.A. or Declination clamp. Do not unlock both clampsIf R.A. clamp is loose, Declination clamp should be locked, vice-versaMove telescope to desired position. Lock R.A. clampUnlock Declination clamp. Move telescope. Lock Declination clampVice versa
DontDo not move telescope when telescope are in lock clampsDo not touch the finder scopeBe careful with the tripod telescope
