Unboxing and Checking Contents
After removing the trusses, you will find two boxes, Figure 3. The smaller one contains the mirror box and the other
contains the rocker box. On the outer left you can see one of the altitude wheels. Remove all parts from the box and
unwrap everything. When you open the lid of the mirror box you will see the following setup:
Inside the mirror box, Figure 4, you will see a foam insert that contains some small parts, clutches, extension and
the red dot finder. This foam insert also protects the main mirror during transit. It also gives you the opportunity
to store/transport eyepieces or accessories. Remove the insert and the protective paper from the main mirror but
leave the foam pieces surrounding the edges of the mirror in place to protect the collimation system.
We recommend keeping the soft paper covering because it can protect the mirror from dust and dirt without giving
off fluff.
In the other box there is the secondary mirror cage unit and the rocker box:
Take both parts out of the box and carefully remove the protective paper from the secondary mirror.
