Replaces the standard HEQ5 or EQ6 saddle with a dual-saddle device that enables both the popular Vixen (Skywatcher/Celestron) and Losmandy type dovetails to be mounted directly to the mount. 

The split clamp design provides an extremely solid locking surface with maximum contact along the entire length of the saddle.  Stainless steel guide pins and spring-loaded design maintains the proper dovetail angles.  

Manufactured from black-anodized 6061 aluminium.

Fitting the saddle is a two-minute job: Remove the three black Allen screws just underneath the saddle, lift the original saddle off, put the new one on then re-fit and tighten the three screws - job done!

Choosing the correct puck for your EQ6 mount is easy: Remove the original saddle as per instructions above then check its puck against the picture below. 

Generally, Pre September 08 EQ6 mounts require the standard-type puck whereas Post September 08 EQ6 mounts require the new-type puck. Don't worry if you select the wrong one, we'll happily change it.
