Unpacking the telescope
The AZ800 telescope will be delivered in 2 wooden crates (1, 2).
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.
There is a third wooden crate (3) that includes the telescope cabinet. The tool box (4) is mounted on top of this
crate.

separately in future (e.g. for recoating).
