Using the Center and Angle Adjustment Ring

There is a M42/0.75 thread on the QHY8PRO, which

can connect directly with the telescope. If it needs

adjustment, then the center and angle adjustment

ring should be used.

Center adjustment----unscrew the three screws

around the ring. The adjustment ring will sets into

the dovetail slot of QHY8PRO. By adjusting the

location of the three screws, you can achieve about

1mm center adjustment.

Angle adjustment-----slightly unscrew the three

screws. There is a small screw on the slide side of

the ring, which adjusts the size of inclination angle. If

you rotate QHY8PRO relative to the adjustment ring,

you can obtain the correct angle.

After finishing the adjustment you should lock up the

three screws.
