5. thread on the telescope adapter

7. connect your astronomy camera and the filter drawer

8. make sure that these accessories are tightly connected and the whole system has a correct back focus. You can add extra spacers(optional) to reach the required back focus

9. choose a proper filter slider according to the filter you are going to use. If it’s a 1.25" or 2" mounted filter, directly thread it onto the filter slider. And if it’s a 31mm, 36mm or 50mm unmounted filter, gently put the filter into the circular groove and superimpose a filter holding ring, fix the holding ring with 3 M2×4 countersink screws and the wrench of M1.27 to securely hold the filter between.
