Abstract
We present the design of the tools and equipment needed for mounting and dismounting the M1, M2, and M3 mirrors and DDRAGO/CAGIRE instrument of the Colibrí telescope at the observing room floor and from there to the ground level outside the building. Also, it includes the tool needed to balance the instruments that will be attach to Nasmyth stations and the ones needed to handle the mirrors in the vacuum chamber. Our designs confront the problem of handling these components in the very limited space available in the dome of a fast alt-az telescope.
