Coronado has designed a portable, stable, and rugged tabletop mount for use with the Personal Solar Telescope or PST 0.5A as well as the CaK PST. By removing certain sections of the custom foam packaging, the disassembled MALTA will fit in with the PST to provide an all-inclusive package for easy transportation and set up.
Once you have attached the MALTA to the PST you only need to remove the legs for returning the PST to its case. The mount remains attached.
Secure the mount head by threading the tension screw through the swivel base and into the mount head from the top down.
Attach the individual legs by threading them to the swivel body.
Adjusting the Manual Altitude-Azimuth (MALTA) mount.
By adjusting the tension screw the mount will be easily manipulated along the Azimuth or horizontal axis. Re-tightening the tension screw will hold the PST in place.
The silver tension screw on the mount head will adjust the Altitude or vertical axis and will hold the PST firm when tightened down.
