Instructions
Solar Safety First!
–
prevent
your solar filter from falling off
your telescope. For your own
safety
–
attach safety straps
Utmost care is necessary when positioning your solar filter in
front of your objective lens or telescope. It is therefore mandatory
to use the three safety straps supplied in this package.
Please consider that a strong gust of wind, a loosely fastened
centering bolt - as well as someone not familiar with the severity
of damage that may be caused to the observers eyesight, could
cause even a well fastened solar filter to detach from your
objective lens or telescope and have the immense amount of
solar energy fall into the observers eye.
This set of three safety straps provides an easy to use and
repeatable protection to prevent the solar filter from falling off
your solar observation device under any circumstances.
Please read the instructions on how to mount the safety
straps thoroughly and carefully. Do not miss to make use
of this important safety feature.
