How do I Disassemble an ETX-125?

The EXT-125 is a telescope released by Meade. It comes equipped with mapping and GPS features that allow you to automatically locate objects in the sky with the press of a button. It does this by using its built-in map of celestial objects to automatically turn toward the celestial object in its database, taking the work out of locating objects in the sky. Before you can transport your Meade ETX-125, you will need to disassemble and repackage it for safety.

Instructions

    • 1

      Unscrew the body from the base by rotating the three knobs above each leg of its tripod. Lift the camera body up and off, and set it on a soft or stable surface. Be sure the lens is capped to avoid any damage.

    • 2

      Turn the knobs holding the midpoint base of each tripod leg and remove the leg from the tripod. Set each metal bar in the carrying case that comes with the telescope.

    • 3

      Hold the tube that contains the lens and unscrew the knobs to the left and right of it. Lift the lens tube out of the body and set it in its protected section of the carrying case.

    • 4

      Rest the remaining part of the body in its slot in the carrying case. It should fit snugly.

    • 5

      Close the lid on the case and press down each of the latches to snap them into place. You have now disassembled the ETX-125.
