Unpacking the mount
The DDM200 mount will come in wooden crates. The crates are only held together by white fabric stripes
–
no
screws. For moisture protection the crates are covered in plastic foil.
Figure 9 - Packaging
1
Crate for DDM200 mount, electronics cabinet and telescope mounting adapters (120 x 80 x 87cm)
(length x width x height)
2
Crate for counter weights (80 x 60 x 42cm) (only included with DDM200 basic)
Additional ordered parts, such as equatorial pier or mounting mechanism, are delivered in separate crates.
You do not need any tools (except a knife) for opening the wooden crates. If you are careful with
unpacking the crates can be reused.
Remove the plastic foil and cut the white straps with a knife. Then just lift up the top lid. Then remove the
lateral parts by lifting them up.
