This mount is made in Switzerland by AOK for William Optics. It is entirely aluminum made, with a stylish sanded finish and laser engraving. The knobs are stainless steel.

We called it EAZY-Touch because it's easy to set-up, and it is easy to use. Tracking stars even at high-power has never been easier. The extremely high quality allows for smooth movements without the need for any slow-motion controls. This very solid Alt-Az Mount is fitted with a Vixen bar clamp on one side and can mount Losmandy-style plates on the other, allowing you to mount two telescopes at one time. Mounting two telescopes should allow you to balance each more easily too. Two scopes, twice the fun: invite your family to observe with you, or use a larger and a smaller scope at the same time parallel-mounted.

How much can I mount on it, how big a telescope?

Provided that you are using a GOOD quality tripod, you can mount up to 10 kg on either side without any need for a counterweight. That means that a 4"-5" refractor for example, is easily handled. For larger or heavier scopes, we recommend the installation of counterweights with a counterweight bar and standard counterweights.

If you unscrew the bottom silver pillar from the black ring connection, you will find it has a 3/8 for usage on stable photographic tripods.

CHOKING HAZARD - small parts may pose a risk to children under 6 yrs.
