JMI Wheeley Bars - 14 Inch Dobsonian
JMI Wheeley Bars - 14 Inch Dobsonian creates an easy way to move mounted telescopes to and from observing locations. This is a customized model with four large 10″ all-terrain pneumatic wheels and a tow handle, consisting of a sturdy base with locking wheels and leveling bolts. Easily move, lock and level the complete telescope assembly from location to location without the need to disconnect and reconnect all the electrical and computer cabling during transport.
Standard Wheeley Bars are designed to be used on hard flat surfaces only. The optional large-wheel upgrade, with great care in maneuvering and ideal conditions, can be used on grass, dirt and gravel surfaces.
Compatible with:
- Orion SkyQuest XX12g GoTo Dobsonian
- Orion SkyQuest XX14g GoTo Dobsonian
- Orion SkyQuest XX14i IntelliScope
- Adaptable to other Dobsonians with 28″ to 32″ Diameter Ground Board
Note: Depending on the Dobsonian, the feet on the ground board may sometimes need to be relocated to accommodate the Wheeley Bars. The heavier the telescope mounted on the Wheeley Bars, the more careful one must be in moving the complete system by pulling or pushing below the center of gravity. JMI is not responsible for incorrect loading or operation.
NOTE: The ground board feet may need to be moved. Due to variations in foot placement, one or more of the three feet on the base of your scope may need to be moved in order for this scope to fit the Wheeley Bars.
