Warning notes
- General safety instructions DANGER Risk of suffocation! Improper use of this product can result in suffocation, especially for children. Therefore, carefully observe the following safety instructions. Keep packaging materials (plastic bags, rubber bands, etc.) away from children! There is a risk of suffocation! Keep cords, ribbons, and similar materials away from children! They could accidentally strangle themselves and suffocate! NOTE Risk of material damage! Improper handling can damage the device and/or accessories. Therefore, only use the device according to the following safety instructions. Do not dismantle the device! In the case of a defect, contact your dealer. They will contact the service center and may send the device in for repair.
- Never look at the sun through an eyepiece/telescope without a certified protection filter. A moon filter can never be used for solar observation. The moon filter is only suitable for moon observation. The solar filter must be mounted in front of the telescope opening, not at the eyepiece. Otherwise, the concentrated light beam through the optics will immediately destroy the filter foil, leading to severe eye damage, including permanent blindness.
- Never leave the optics unattended. Children and inexperienced adults could point the telescope at the sun without proper precautions and lose their eyesight.
- Do not expose the device to high temperatures.

BRESSER Micro Motion Head MH-100 (Polar-Wedge)
€99.00*
Tripod head with fine adjustment for fast and precise pole height adjustment of the BRESSER StarTracker Astrophoto Mount PM-100 art. no. 4964120. The BRESSER Micro Motion Head MH-100 allows a very precise adjustment by using large dimensioned knurled screws. In order to keep the adjustment distances by using the knurled screws as small as possible, the mounting plate has a quick-release clamping device with toothing in order to be able to select a rough presetting of the pole height (latitude at the location). The Micro Motion Head MH-100 can be mounted on any photo tripod with 1/4 inch photo thread closure. The BRESSER StarTracker astrophoto mount can then be mounted on the MH-100 tripod head without the use of tools using a 1/4" photo thread screw. The complete motion head is made of black anodized aluminum and guarantees highest stability by the use of solid material. The knurled screws with fine pitch thread are even made of stainless steel and guarantee a long durability and corrosion resistance. Ideal for optimizing tracking accuracy in astrophotography. IMPORTANT NOTE: Can also be used as a stable adjustment element of a telescopic sight in astrophotography. Parallel alignment of the main telescope and the guide telescope is thus also possible quickly and precisely. Base plate connection: 3 x 1/4 inch photo thread with 35.0 mm hole spacing. Mounting plate connection: 2 x M8x1.25 thread with 35.0mm hole spacing. FEATURES Compact micro motion head with fine adjustment Functions as a so-called polar-wedge For precise adjustment of polar alignment (EQ mode)Mounting plate with quick-release clamping device and toothingCan be used with any photo tripod and 1/4inch thread adapterMade of black anodised aluminium and stainless steel Quick and easy to use deviceSuitable for BRESSER StarTracker Astrophoto Mount PM-100 Suitable for BRESSER tripod TP-100 DX Also ideal as an adjustment element of an auto-guiding scopeFor parallel alignment of main telescope and guiding telescope Base plate connection: 3 x 1/4 inch photo thread; hole spacing 35.0mm Connection mounting plate: 2 x M8x1.25mm thread; drilling distance 35,0mm SCOPE OF DELIVERY Micro Motion Head MH-100 Instruction manual
