  This paper reports on the installation and observations of a new solar
telescope installed on 7th October, 2014 at the Kodaikanal Observatory. The
telescope is a refractive type equipped with a tunable Lyot H$_{\alpha}$
filter. A CCD camera of 2k$\times$2k size makes the image of the Sun with a
pixel size of 1.21$^{\prime\prime}$ pixel$^{-1}$ with a full field-of-view of
41$^{\prime}$. The telescope is equipped with a guiding system which keeps the
image of the Sun within a few pixels throughout the observations. The FWHM of
the Lyot filter is 0.4\AA~and the filter is motorized, capable of scanning the
H$_{\alpha}$ line profile at a smaller step size of 0.01\AA. Partial-disk
imaging covering about 10$^{\prime}$, is also possible with the help of a relay
lens kept in front of the CCD camera. In this paper, we report the detailed
specifications of the telescope, filter unit, its installation, observations
and the procedures we have followed to calibrate and align the data. We also
present preliminary results with this new full-disk telescope.
