I need help with 2X 2" Powermate & Parac orr

I have a TeleVue Powermate 2X 2" and have just received a TeleVue Paracorr w/ a tunable top. To use both in my scope TeleVue's page on the Powermate says to put the Paracorr into the Powermate and on the Paracorr page it says not to use Barlow's w/ the Paracorr. Does that mean Powermates? I'm confused. I need some help on using these two togeather.

The Powermate is not a Barlow, so Tele Vue's recommended installation -- Paracorr into Powermate -- is valid.

When Tele Vue uses the term "Barlow," they do not mean Powermate.

Best wishes.
