13.To attach the altitude encoder board and altitude encoder disk, you must first remove the telescope mounting bracket. Rotate the altitude axis tensioning knob counterclockwise and remove it completely. You’ll see two flat washers and a ball bearing ring remaining on the mounting bracket’s shaft. To remove them you have to rotate the outer washer counterclockwise to “unthread” it from the bolt shaft, then slide the ball bearing ring and inside washer off of the shaft. Now remove the telescope mounting bracket from the side panel.

14.Insert the compression spring into the hole just below the hole for the altitude axis bolt on the inside surface of the side panel. When inserted as far as it will go, the spring will still protrude from the hole by several millimeters (Figure 11).

15.Now you will install the altitude encoder board. Place two wood screws through the mounting holes in the board, and then place two washers over the screw tips as shown in Figure 12a. Thread the screws into the pre- drilled mounting holes with a Phillips screwdriver until the board is secured, making sure that the large hole in the encoder board is aligned with the hole in the side panel and the board is pressing squarely against the compression spring that you installed in the previous step (Figure 12b). The screws should not be fully tightened; they should be tight, but not tight enough to prevent the altitude encoder from moving up and down within the slots in the encoder board.
