BASICS FOR YOUR
ZHUMELL DOBSONIAN TELESCOPE
TRANSPORTATION
1.
IMPORTANT
- never try and transport both the base and OTA as a
single unit. Gently lift the OTA off the base and secure in a telescope
case for transportation. Move the base separately, as a single unit,
and handle with care.
2.
If you do not have a case for your Dobsonian, let common sense
dictate your transportation storage. It is vital that the OTA does not
roll or move around at all during travel, as this will affect the telescope
alignment. Pad and secure your telescope accordingly.
