EQUATORIAL WEDGES

For optimal performance in astronomical observing that involves setting circles or motorized tracking, Celestron’s telescopes with a fork mount and motor drive must be mounted on an Equatorial Wedge. The wedge allows you to tilt the telescope so that its polar axis (R.A. axis) is parallel to the earth’s axis.

The angle of tilt will depend on your latitude when the telescope is level. The angle between the horizon level and the polar axis will equal your latitude when the telescope’s axis is parallel with that of the earth’s. Once properly mounted and adjusted on the wedge, the telescope is said to be equatorially mounted and its setting circles can be used to locate deep-sky objects.

C5 Wedge — #93654

Is standard with the C5+ telescope. An optional upgrade for the C8 telescope is to use the C5 Wedge, which allows the C8 to be used more easily as a tabletop telescope. The C5 Wedge comes with height adjustment screws and

a bubble level, and has a latitude range of 0° to 90°.

Standard C8 Wedge — #93656

Is Standard with the Celestar 8 Deluxe telescope. It can be used as an upgrade for the basic Celestar 8 telescope when used with an adjustable tripod or as a tabletop telescope.

Deluxe Latitude Adjuster – #93528

Raise and lower the tilt plate of the C8 wedge

(#93656) with fine precision, using Celestron’s Deluxe #93528 Latitude Adjuster. Used during the polar alignment

process, this adjuster is a real time saver. Especially convenient if you observe from a variety of different sites, which necessitates readjusting your polar alignment for each location.

The Deluxe Latitude Adjuster consists primarily of a heavy-duty latitude adjustment bar with a large central adjustment knob. Also included are bolts with oversized knobs for attaching the telescope to the wedge, and for locking

the tilt plate to the side of the wedge.

Heavy-Duty Wedge — #93655

For Celestron‘s C8 and C11 telescopes. It is available for the more serious observer. It is standard with the Ultima 91/4 and Ultima 11 telescopes. It is sold as an option for Ultima 2000 — 8" telescopes. It can also be used as an upgrade for the standard C8 telescopes. It increases the rigidity of the telescope while giving a 0° to 90° range of operation. An upgrade kit with a deluxe latitude adjuster and azimuth controls for easy polar alignment is available (#93662).
