Attaching the Mirror Cell to the Telescope Tube Now that the mirror is securely housed in the mirror cell, it's time to mount it in the actual telescope tube. Four holes, 1/4" in diameter, need to be created on the bottom of the tube. These holes should be about 1/2" up from the bottom and 90° apart. Make sure that the hole placement is such that the holes will line up with the bolt inserts on the side of the mirror cell before drilling. Lower the tube over the mirror cell, matching the holes in the tube with the bolt inserts on the mirror cell. Insert the allen head bolts supplied with the mirror cell through the tube and into the cell. All collimation adjustments can be done by loosening (which pushes the mirror forward) or tightening (pulls the mirror back) the three allen head bolts located on the bottom of the unit.
