Screw the extension column
onto the tripod and lock in
place using the hand screw
located under the tripod head.
OPTIONAL COLUMN EXTENSION
Column extension kit is sold seperatelyand can be purchased from your local dealer.
The Star Adventurer GTi can be equipped with an optional column extension that raises the height of the
mount head. This is normally required for longer telescopes to clear the tripod legs.
The column extension has been designed to be complete disassembled for transportation. We advise then
transporting the mount to detach the column extension and store it seperately from the mount head and
tripod. To prevent loss and damage of the thumb screws, do not leave them on the column extension.
Parts list:
1. Star Adventurer GTi mount head
2. Column lock
3. Column extension
4. Thumb screws
Step 3
Stand the tripod upright and
place the mount head with the
column lock into the column
extension and tighten the
thumb screws to hold the
mount head in place.

Do not transport the Star Adventurer GTi full assembled. While the column lock
can be left on the mount head during transportation, damage can occur if the
entire mount and tripod are not disassembled.
Ensure that the tripod is fully extended while using the column extension.
