Do you need to remove the dovetail bases before installing the base of the tetrad or you can still attach in the dovetail?

The base is attached with double-sided tape, so we can go anywhere on the optical two with there's a flat spot. I installed mine on a Celestron NexStar 8 SE. Didn't have to remove anything.

My recommendation is first is to position to Telrad and make sure you like where it's at, then you can detach the base pulled off the tape for the double-sided sticky tape and place it in your favorite location and the location that works for you. And if you want you can install the Telrad mounted to the base it's all up to you I recommend first putting it in a spot that works for you and your scope.

my screw was already in the base, you have to unscrew it, attach the tail and then put the screw back in.

I had to modify my hitachi' base, by drilling another hole in it, so that the guide fence would be square with the stop blocks on the stand... I love the stand, and I love my Hitachi saw, but the modification had to be made for the full function of the stand to work with the saw.

Yes, you can remove the fence completely but the vacuum port will go along with it. You would probably have to figure out some other temporary vacuum docking system that works with the dovetail jig. This is a spiffy table though. If you haven't purchased it, I recommend it!

Dear friend, thanks for your inquiry. You don't have to remove the original tips, and install the item on it. The item is designed for protecting the original tips. Thank you.

It's not a necessity. I run mine with the mounts it came with. It is definitely usable out of the box. I've seen a lot of people run scopes higher though.

If I remember correctly the base has a conical fit. Either the fit is contaminated or is drilled at a angle.

I'm not sure why you would have removed the wingnut. You do need to remove the loop/screw top, but not the wingnut. I'm attaching a picture of where it goes on the bracket that secures the center post.

I had a similar problem and found the there is a small tube that sits inside the actual hole of the collet. I removed the collet unit and althou you can hardly see it, I managed to shake it out. Once it was out I was able to fit it on the attachments and then back in the collet and then was able to tighten the whole thing to hold the attachment. I hope this will help you because I was really frustrated until I discovered the little tube part of the collet.

yes you can remove the fence. The fence is separate from the dust port but the port is designed to attach to it. I would strongly recommend setting up a separate location for a dovetail jig though. The leigh dovetail jig is the best and in my opinion the only option for dovetail jigs.

The base support is easily removed. It comes with a ratchet torque wrench so that you know when it is always on securely. It is designed for and fits on my i530 beautifully, and it is easy to remove.

yes, you bolt these straight to the dovetail on your barrel. You do need to remove the rear sight. have questions shoot me a email, I've done this to several mosins.

Yes, you can remove the fence and use your dovetail jig however you will loose the vacuum port as it is built into the fence unit.

There's a way to do it without the base but it's more of a last resort option. I do use a base.

No, the only correct way to remove the dovetail rear sight is by removing the slide, place in a vise and tap it out from the left side to the right side with a brass tap and hammer. Leaving the slide on the rails will potentially damage the rails of the frame.

You have to use the hubs that come with the kit. The bearings are bigger and the stub shaft itself is also larger so they're a lot stronger than stock, and the hubs are really strong too. The front and rear half shaft assemblys are also the exact same with the Tekno kits so you parts interchangeability which is nice. I've been running mine for about 4 months in Afghanistan with the castle SCT setup on 3S with 6in. tall tires and the Tekno 17mm hub conversion and have only broke one front half shaft because I was running a rear locker on the street. If you are still running the stock size tires even on 3S, I don't see you ever breaking any half shaft parts. These are tough. You have to use the hubs that come with the kit.

remove the base by unscrewing the thing where the wires come out of. that will seperate the two parts and then you attach the Arms. this thing has horrible instructions.
