GSO RC 10 Quetions

Hi everyone, I have a GSO RC 10 on order, and also a moonlight focuser at home waiting to go on it when it arrives. Is there anything specific I should consider when replacing the focuser, or does it simply screw off and on again? I just don't want to break or knock anything out of alignment.

Thanks
Erik.

The standard focuser just screws on and off (M117 thread, IIRC). It should be a pretty easy operation...

Cheers,
Rick.

I have the same combination. It is a simple unscrew old and screw on the new focuser onto the extender section.
