Setting up the Tripod
For maximum rigidity, the Celestron heavy duty tripod has a leg support
bracket/accessory tray. This bracket fits snugly against the tripod legs,
increasing stability while reducing vibration and flexure. However, the
tripod must be shipped with the leg support bracket detached so the
tripod legs can collapse . To set up the tripod:
1 . Hold the tripod with the head up and the legs pointed toward
the ground .
2 . Pull the legs away from the central column until they will not separate
any further . The top of each tripod leg presses against the tripod head
to indicate maximum separation .
3. Remove the tension knob, located on the central column. See figure 3-1.
4 . Place the leg support bracket over the central rod so that the cups on
the end of each bracket are directly underneath each leg .
5 . Rotate the tension knob until the bracket is secure against the tripod
legs . Do not over tighten.
The tripod will now stand by itself. Once the telescope is attached to the
tripod, readjust the tension knob to ensure that the leg support bracket
is snug. Once again, do not over tighten!
Start by removing the telescope and tripod from their shipping cartons
and set the telescope’s round base on a sturdy flat surface. Always
carry the telescope by holding it from the lower portion of the fork arm
on the hand control side and from the handle on the opposite side .
Remove all of the accessories from their individual boxes . Remember to save all of the containers so that they can be used to transport the
telescope . Before attaching the visual accessories, the telescope should
be mounted on the tripod and the tube should be positioned horizontal
to the ground .
