Easily control pitch and yaw
The 88-6 base accommodates all of our alignment telescopes and collimators (except for the discontinued 4030). A heavy steel plate provides support for two bronze "vees" for stable instrument support. The vees adjust from a spacing of 6¼" (15.9cm) to 9½" (24.1cm), center to center. For added security, metal clips are provided to secure the telescope to the base.
The 88-6 base has a tilting range of approximately 1¼ degrees both horizontally and vertically (pitch and yaw control). Tilt is controlled by a fine-threaded, large head screw for easy adjustment. The instrument carrier (upper portion) may be rotated with respect to the bottom plate through 360 degrees and clamped in position by socket-head set screws.
The base of 88-6 has a standard 3½"-8 internal thread for attachment to any compatible optical tooling stand.
Above, all three adjustment screws are visible (azimuth and elevation angle) at the near-end of the 88-6.
