2. Remove the counterweight safety screw on the bottom

end of the counterweight bar by turning it counterclock-

wise. This screw prevents the counterweight from falling

off the mount in the case the counterweight locking screw

comes loose.

3. Loosen the locking screw on the side of the counter-

weight.

4. Slide the counterweight over the counterweight bar and

move it about halfway up the bar.

5. Tighten the locking screw on the side of the counter-

weight to hold it in place.

6. Replace the counterweight safety screw.

Tip: The hole in the center of your counterweight is slightly

larger on one side. When you slide the counterweight

onto the counterweight bar, make sure that the smaller

hole is facing the equatorial head. This allows you to

slide the counterweight over the safety screw at the

bottom of the counterweight bar in case you need a

little bit more adjustment to balance additional acces-

sories mounted on your optical tube. The smaller hole

prevents the counterweight from completely sliding

over the safety screw.

Attaching the Hand Control Holder

The Advanced VX telescope models come with a hand

control holder that attaches to a tripod leg. The hand control

holder comes in two pieces: the Leg Clamp that snaps

around the tripod leg and the holder which attaches to the

Leg Clamp. To attach the hand control holder:

1. Place the leg clamp up against one of the tripod legs

and press ﬁrmly until the clamp wraps around the leg.

2. Slide the back of the hand control holder downward into

the channel on the front of the legs clamp until it snaps

into place.

Attaching an Optical Tube to the Mount

The telescope attaches to the mount via a dovetail slide

bar which is mounted along the bottom of the telescope

tube. Before you attach the optical tube, make sure that the

declination and right ascension clutch knobs are tight and

the counterweight(s) are securely installed. This will ensure

that the mount does not move suddenly while attaching the

telescope. To mount the telescope tube:

1. Loosen the two mounting screws on the side of the

telescope mounting platform. This allows you to slide

the dovetail bar onto the mount.

2. If your telescope is equipped with one, remove the safety

screws located beneath the dovetail bar.

3. Slide the dovetail bar on the telescope tube into the

mounting platform of the mount. Slide the telescope so

that the back of the dovetail bar is close to the back of

the mounting platform.

4. Tighten the mounting screws on the side of the mounting

platform to hold the telescope in place.

Now that the optical tube is securely in place, the visual

accessories can now be attached to the telescope. This is

covered in detail in the section of this manual dealing with

the use of optical tubes.

Moving the Telescope Manually

In order to properly balance your telescope, you will need to

move your telescope manually at various portions of the sky

to observe different objects. To make rough adjustments,

loosen the R.A. and DEC clutch knobs slightly and move

the telescope in the desired direction.

Both the R.A. and DEC axis have lock levers to clutch down

each axis of the telescope. To loosen the clutches on the

telescope, rotate the lock levers counterclockwise.
