Abstract
The work on the technical transform of the mounting system of the primary mirror of the 1.2m alt-az telescope at the Yunnan Observatory is introduced and discussed in this paper. The side supporting method by using the mercury bag, for the 1.2m primary mirror, is adopted. The tested results indicate that the mounting system of the 1.2m mirror meets the needs for all the designed accuracies.
