WHAT’S IN THE BOX We recommend saving your telescope box so it can be used to store the telescope when it is not in use. Unpack the box carefully as some parts are small. Use the parts list below to verify that all parts and accessories are present. PARTS LIST Telescope Optical Tube Finderscope Objective Lens (under lens shade) Eyepiece Tripod Head Platform Erect Image Diagonal Focus Knob Central Column Locking Knob OTHER INCLUDED ACCESSORIES: Compass White LED flashlight with carabiner clip 1.
ATTACHING THE TELESCOPE OPTICAL TUBE TO THE TRIPOD The telescope optical tube attaches to the tripod using the mounting bracket on the bottom of the optical tube and the mounting platform of the tripod. Before starting, make sure all of the knobs on the tripod are locked. 1. Remove the protective paper covering the optical tube. 2. Loosen the top right knob by turning it counterclockwise. This allows you to tilt the tripod platform up 90°.
INSTALLING & USING THE BARLOW LENS Your telescope also comes with a 3x Barlow lens which triples the magnifying power of each eyepiece. To use the Barlow lens, remove the diagonal and insert the Barlow directly into the focuser tube. Then insert an eyepiece into the Barlow lens for viewing. 3x Barlow Lens NOTE: Start by using a low power eyepiece as it will be easier to focus. To use the moon filter, simply thread the filter to the chrome barrel of the eyepiece.
