Unbolt the rings from the dovetail and then slide the dovetail on to the mount. Reattach the rings and then adjust the telescope for balance. Leave the rings attached to the dovetail and remove the telescope from the rings when not in use.

Thanks for the reply, to do this i will need to remove the two circlular screws either side of the hexagonal screw or all of them?

Edit: All good I got it, thanks for the advice! 😁

Hello, 

Just recieved my first telescope and am having difficulty getting the telescope to slide onto the mount. I have followed the instructions perfectly but the green part won't slide into the mount on the tripod. I have even scratched the paint on it from trying for so long. I have also tried removing the bolt in the center as that's what seems to be blocking it, but have not been able to. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
