1. Locate the two motor cables. The longer cable attaches to the DEC motor while the shorted cable attaches to the RA

motor.

2. Insert one end of each cable into the designated port on the electronic pier.

See figure 2-5.

3. Attach the other end of the longer cable to the port on the side of the DEC

motor and the shorter cable into the port on the RA motor.

4. Thread the cable ring onto each port to hold the cable securely in place.

To properly balance the telescope, the mount comes with a counterweight bar

and at least one counterweight (depending on model). To install the

counterweight bar:

1. Locate the counterweight bar from the box containing the CGE Pro

mount (see Fig 2-6).

2. Thread the counterweight bar through the end of the declination shaft

until tight.

Once the bar is securely in place you are ready to attach the counterweight.

Since the fully assembled telescope can be quite heavy, position the mount so that the polar axis is pointing towards

north before the tube assembly and counterweights are attached. This will make the polar alignment procedure much

easier.

Depending on which telescope model you have, you will receive either one, two or three counterweights. To install the

counterweight(s):

1. Orient the mount so that the counterweight bar points toward the ground

2. Remove the counterweight safety screw on the end of the counterweight

bar (i.e., opposite the end that attaches to the mount).

3. Loosen the locking screw on the side of the counterweight.

4. Slide the counterweight onto the shaft (see Fig 2-6) until they are in the

center of the bar.

5. Tighten the locking screw on the side of the weight to hold the

counterweight in place.

6. Replace the counterweight safety screw.
