Accessories such as cameras, dew caps, tele-extenders or a 2" star diagonal affect the balance of your telescope. Counterweights compensate for the imbalance, make it easier to operate and improve tracking

You don't need perfect balance to use your telescope. However, it should hold its position as well as possible when you loosen the clamps on the right ascension and declination axes. Celestron counterweights help you to balance your telescope as well as possible and reduce vibrations.
