Solar Warning: Never look directly at the sun with the naked eye or with an optic (unless you have the correct solar filter). Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result of this. Never use your optic to project an image of the sun onto any surface. Internal heat build-up can damage the optic and any accessories attached to it. Never leave your optic unsupervised and make sure an adult who is familiar with the correct operating procedures is with your optic at all times, especially when children are present.
Turn your manual German equatorial mount into a tracking mount by adding the included RA motor drive to your telescope. This easy-to-install RA motor drive compensates for the Earth's rotation, so the telescope tracks a star's movement through the night sky from east to west.
