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.
