Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Unfold the tripod legs and adjust each leg independently to your desired length. Place the tripod on a flat surface and align one leg roughly toward True North (in the Northern Hemisphere). Check the built-in bubble level and adjust leg extension until the bubble centers perfectly.
If pairing with the TH10 tripod head, screw the 1/4" to 3/8" adapter into the base of your Seestar unit and tighten securely using a coin or coin-wrench.
Attach the quick release plate firmly to the bottom of the Seestar and tighten all fixing screws.
Attach the TH10 head to the TC20 tripod. Loosen the azimuth adjustment knob, rotate the dovetail clamp so it points True North (aligned with the north-facing tripod leg), and re-tighten the knob.
Slide the Seestar unit into the dovetail clamp and tighten the locking knob securely before operation.
