EYEPIECE CADDY SET INSTRUCTIONSPARTS LIST
2" Eyepiece Bracket with 1¼" plastic inserts
1¼" Eyepiece Bracket(4) Knurled Knobs
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Eyepiece Caddy Set.
This versatile accessory attaches to the yoke armsof your Tele Vue mount and places five eyepieces
conveniently at your fingertips. Available clearance
holes at the ends of each Caddy can be used as
mounting points for your DSC / Computer.
The Caddy Set is precision machined aluminum,and powder-coated for lifetime durability. You maywish to remove them and pack separately whencarrying a mount head in luggage.

Knurled Knobs

INSTALLATION
The most current yoke and cradle heads have the attachment holes
already drilled into the arms. If your mount arms are not predrilled,
you can use a drill press and the enclosed templates to make theholes yourself.
Attach each Caddy bracket by passing the screws through theclearance holes in the yoke arms and tightening the thumb knobs.
The angled edge will match the arms, so that when viewing
from the telescope eyepiece position, the (3) 1¼" holes will be on
the left side, while the (2) 2" holes with removable 1¼" plastic plugs
will be to your right.
USE
You can place up to (5) 1¼" eyepieces in the Caddy Set, or byremoving the plastic inserts, use (3) 1¼" and (2) 2" eyepieces.
To remove the 1¼" inserts, push up from the bottom. To reinstallthe 1¼" inserts, push them in from the top by running your thumbs
around the outer lip.
If you have dual barrel eyepieces you can use either 1¼" or2" holes, but the outside lock screw in the 2" eyepiece barrel must
be removed.
Of course, your Barlow or Powermate units, or 2" to 1¼"adapters can also be placed in the Caddy Set.
Attaching DSC / Computer Mounting Bracket
The ends of the Eyepiece Caddy make a good mounting location if
your DSC / Computer comes with a mounting plate. There are two
5/32" clearance holes available there on each Caddy. Typicallythe DSC / Computer is attached by Velcro to the plate. When using
shorter scopes like our Tele Vue--76 or Tele Vue-85, make sure you
leave enough finger room between the DSC / Computer / plate
setup and the focuser knobs on the telescope.
