Choosing Whether to Install a Counter Weight
Counter weight Installation Steps
If the combined weight of the telescope is less than 13kg there is no requirement to have a
counterweight installed. If the combined weight of the telescope reaches 13kg or more, a
counterweight should be used.
The total weight of the telescope should not exceed 20kg.
In order to ensure the stability of the equipment, it is recommended to use a counterweight
when the total weight of the telescope reaches 10kg.
1、Find the mounting screw hole for the counterweight at the bottom of the AM5 mount body.
The screw hole will have a silver color plug in.
2、Turn the plug counterclockwise until fully unscrewed.
3、Install the counterweight bar and tighten clockwise, then install the weight.
