This altazimuth mount with a lightweight aluminum tripod is a perfect choice for both terrestrial observations and stargazing. Levenhuk Ra ATZ has precise altitude and azimuth slow-motion control mechanisms; and is much easier to use than any equatorial mount. Besides, this mount is very compact and lightweight, which allows you to easily carry it to the observation site. This mount is a perfect addition to your equipment, as you do not have to adjust it before every stargazing session.
The durable aluminum tripod may be adjusted to a height within the range of 35.4"–51.1" (900–1300 mm). This mount may be used with Newtonian telescopes and refractors of less than 150-mm (5.9-in) aperture. Total weight of the mount and the tripod is 14.3 pounds (6.5 kg).

Is it able to hold the weight? I mean..it's possible to attach dovetail plate, right? It's just... Dobsonian mount is not for me. It needs to be smoother, it loses the object even after a weak touch... Levenhuk Customer Service:
In theory the Levenhuk Ra ATZ mount is able to hold the weight of the Levenhuk Ra 200N Dob telescope's tube. But we strongly prevent you from making any modifications to the telescope by yourself.

Does it fit Levenhuk Ra 200N Dob Telescope? Or what do I use to replace the dobsonian mount? Levenhuk Customer Service:
Levenhuk Ra 200N Dob Telescope has no dovetail plate, so it's impossible to install it on any other mount. Besides it is supposed to be used with dobsonian mount.
