Knobs: Black plastic, 13 mm (1/2”) diameter Threads: Black anodized aluminum alloy
Notes:
The
factory dust cover may contact the knobs when installed. We provide a
set of spacers that attach to the inside of the dust cover to move it
slightly away from the secondary assembly. You can also press the center
of the cover from the inside to contour it for additional clearance.
Some post-2004 Meade 8” telescopes have four screws or six screws
on the secondary housing. The 4-screw and 6-screw secondary require
different knobs (Items B and C below) Do not use knobs for the 3-screw
secondary on the 4-screw or 6-screw secondary. The screws on 3-screw
knobs are too short.
Some very early Meade 8” model 2080 telescopes have two collimation screws. Please contact us using the link at the bottom of this page for knobs to fit this scope.
An Allen wrench for removing the factory collimation screws is included with your order.
