Level the mount by adjusting the tripod legs. Use the build-in Bubble Level Indicator on the mount
base or an external leveler for this purpose.
Step 3. Adjust latitude
The HAE69 mount has three latitude range settings: 0°~34°, 28°~62° and 56°~90°. The default
position is 28°~62°.
To adjust the latitude, loosen both the Primary and Auxiliary Alt. Locking Lever on the RA base. Use
the Altitude Adjustment Knob to move the mount to the desired latitude by aligning the scale to the Latitude
Mark line. Tighten both Primary and Auxiliary Locking Lever. There are holes on the Altitude Adjustment
Knob. An Allen wrench may be inserted for increased adjustment torque, if needed.
