Manual: FCCT - Filter Changer Camera Tilter
6. First remove the ring dovetail from your
QHY camera, as here in the example
of the QHY294. To do this, you need a
normal, small Phillips screwdriver (not
included in the scope of delivery). Store
the screws and the ring dovetail carefully.
Make sure that the screws do not fall
onto the cover glass of the chip chamber!
7. Now remove only the marked three of
the six screws on the outermost edge
of the camera housing, as shown in the
illustration.
Caution:
Do not remove all six screws,
as this could cause the chip chamber
to leak. However, removing only three
screws at 120° intervals does not reduce
camera tightness.
8. Place the Ø 90 FCCT-QHY-flange
6
in
such a way onto the camera that the filter
slider will later be parallel to the short
side of the camera sensor, when it is
pushed into the FCCT (as indicated with
the red lines).

9. Now secure the FCCT-QHY-flange
6
with the three M2 hex screws (
9
in the
scope of delivery on page 4) instead of
the original screws by QHY which you
have removed before.
