Assembling/Disassembling the two parts
1 To assemble the G53F Equatorial Head, rotate the RA head into the
approximate position shown below, lock the red lock knob until it emits a click,
and place the DEC head into the saddle as shown below. Attention, it may fall
out of the saddle if left alone in an unsuitably horizontal position!
Make sure the orienting pin in the lower saddle engages the hole in the DEC
head. This ensures the correct contact of the DB9 connector.
2 Next, place the upper saddle on the DEC head as shown below. Find the
position when the bolts enter their relative threaded holes in the lower saddle.
The gaps at the two sides should be approximately equal.
