A 14-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain on a German equatorial mount is a heavy setup that you don’t want to set up and align every time. The Telegizmos TGG-2 is a protective cover for exactly this combination. You leave everything in place and keep dust, dirt, and moisture away from the telescope.
The cover is intended for a 14-inch SCT on a German equatorial mount. So, calculate the assembly when you measure the setup.
Park the telescope in a fixed position and measure the setup in that position, including the viewfinder, dew cap and camera. Compare that with the dimensions of the cover. Attach the dust cap to the corrector plate and let the telescope dry first after a wet night, so that no moisture gets trapped under the cover.
For use outdoors all year round there is the T3-G2 from the 365 series. For manual collimation there are adjustment screws for a 14 inch SCT; see which version is suitable for your telescope.
