After years of research, ZWO developed strain wave gears to meet the astrophotography needs of low periodic error, stable transmission, and high torque output. Each mount has a PE curve for performance measurement. In addition, the belt drive is adopted to achieve 300:1 reduction to achieve high-precision control. The AM3 uses updated technology, an integrated manufacturing process, and modern industrial design concepts. It is lightweight and stable while in use. It does not blindly pursue a lightweight design, but focuses, more importantly, on stability and durability during use. A Strain Wave GearGerman equatorial mount with a lightweight design, a load capacity that can meet the capacity requirements of most astrophotography setups. The AM3 equatorial mount has the capabilities of fast response, accurate tracking, convenient operation, and wide compatibility, which can meet the needs of astronomical observation and astronomical photography, and provide better assistance for astronomy enthusiasts on their star exploration journey. The purpose of this manual is to introduce the use of the equatorial mount to users in the form of text descriptions and illustrations, and to remind users of possible improper operations or dangerous situations. Please make sure to read this manual carefully before using the equatorial mount, and strictly follow the instructions in the manual carefully. Any equipment damage and personal injury caused by improper operation are the responsibility of the user. ZWO AM3 Strain Wave Gear Mount software and hardware are developed and designed with independent intellectual property rights, which are perfectly compatible with ASIAIR, and support ASCOM, INDI and other platforms. Tips This manual can guide the user to use the AM3 Strain Wave Gear Mount safely and efficiently. Before using the equatorial mount, please make sure to read the following tips carefully, and follow the instructions in this manual during actual use. 1. When using AM3, please do not directly observe or image the sun with naked eyes through telescopes or finder glasses, without using specially designed solar filters. This will cause permanent and irreversible damage to the observer's eyes, and damage to property and equipment. With solar observing and imaging, always use specially designed solar filters. 2. Please carefully select a suitable tripod according to the size and weight of the telescope and then determine if your setup needs a counterweight. Without a counterweight bar and counterweight installed on the AM3 Strain Wave Gear Mount, the center of gravity of the telescope may deviate from the tripod and cause the tripod & telescope to tip over. Please test the center of gravity of the telescope in all directions in advance to avoid this situation, causing equipment damage or personal injury. 3. After the use of the AM3, please reset the mount’s position to zero (home position), and then power down the mount. Failing to do this step will cause the home position and GOTO function to be inaccurate at the next start up, which might further cause equipment damage or personal injury. If the mount is not at home position at power down, then by the next time it is powered on, please try to return it to home position first before you do any other operation. 4.Please do stop unsupervised children from using the mount or touching the mount. This will help avoid an accidental rollover or personal injury. In addition, small parts are included with this mount which may also cause suffocation or other injuries to children. 5.Do not place the equatorial mount in a high-humidity and high-salt environment. This will cause corrosion of the mount’s components, which may cause the equatorial mount to run poorly or reduce the accuracy of the mount, and may cause short circuits and permanent damage. 6. Do not use corrosive solutions to clean the mount, so as not to corrode the surface oxide layer and damage the mount. Also exposing the mount to the sun for long periods of time may cause the appearance of the oxide layer to discolor. 7. Do not attempt to disassemble the mount. This may damage the mount, reduce the accuracy of the mount, or even cause personal injury to the user. 8. The ZWO AM3 Strain Wave Drive Mount is a precision instrument. Please handle it with care to avoid damage to the mount and reduce the accuracy. 9. The operational temperature of the ZWO AM3 Strain Wave Drive Mount is -15°C-40°C, please do not use the mount outside this temperature range. Doing so may cause the equipment to fail to operate normally and may cause equipment damage. Included Items 1. Case x1 2. AM3 mount x1 3. 2m USB2.0 cable (Type-B to Type-A) x 1 4.
