Aiming the Deluxe Mini Guide Scope The DMGS is mounted in a dovetail bracket that has three black thumbscrews to secure the guide scope tube in place. The tube is secured to the front of the bracket with a rubber O-ring. Although you may never need to do it in order to find a guide star, you can adjust the direction the guide scope is pointed within the bracket by alternately loosening and tightening the three thumbscrews. Just make sure that all three thumbscrews are tightened before you begin guiding.
