The EQ-1 mount:

This equatorial mount already offers the possibility of exactly adjusting optical systems to the North Star. You can adjust the polar distance resp. latitude for each observation location. Through the fine movement of the right ascension and declination axes it is possible to sensitively adjust and track objects, a counterweight guarantees the correct balance of the optical system.

We supply the EQ-1 mount in two variants, with a floor tripod or table tripod; The details can be gleaned from the technical documentation. The tripod can be adjusted and positioned with a height of between 70cm and 120cm, and eyepieces or other accessories can be placed in the accessory holder.
