Stuck at home waiting for the Coronavirus to go away, Optics Central's astrophotographer, Bill, talks about how to set up a simple equatorial mount. He discusses the parts of the mount, how to put them together, how they work, and how to align the mount so it tracks stars as they move relative to Earth. • This video will help you set up mounts such as the saxon or Sky-Watcher EQ1and EQ2, and similar equatorial mounts made by Celestron and other brands. • It shows azimuth and altitude adjustment, polar alignment, slow-motion controls, Right Ascension (RA) and Declination (Dec) axes, their clutches, how tube rings work, how to attach and balance the scope, as well as other aspects of a simple equatorial mount. • This video goes with a detailed set of notes which is available at https://www.opticscentral.com.au/blog... • • • **** • OpticsCentral is Australia's Optics Superstore and authorised Australian retailer of 20+ favourite telescope, binoculars, microscope brands.
