Hi
Thank you for letting me join your community 🙂
I just turned 60 and just got given my first scope so a total newbie, its a Skywatcher BK1309 EQ2, looks good to me, prob not brilliant but its a start.
Anyway i have put it all together but am lost on 2 items, the first is what is this piece of loose silver metal as in the pic for and should it be loose flopping around ???, and second my dust cap has two raised parts near the middle, one comes off leaving a appx 2" hole, the other is fixed as moulded so don't come off, again i can see nothing referring to this hole ????
Any help would be most appreciated
Thank you :-)
