How to use

Assemble the telescope on the aluminium tripod and secure the alt-azimuth mount according to the quick-setup instructions. Insert one of the supplied eyepieces into the diagonal or directly into the focuser, and use the erecting eyepiece when you need correctly oriented terrestrial views. Start with the lower-power eyepiece (12.5 mm) to locate the target and centre it in the field of view, then switch to the higher-power eyepiece (6 mm) to increase magnification. Use the mount controls to move the telescope smoothly in altitude and azimuth. Make fine focus adjustments until the observed object appears sharp.

Usage recommendations

For best results, perform observations from a stable, low-light location and let the telescope acclimatise to outdoor temperature before use. Begin with lunar and bright planetary targets when using the higher magnification, and use the erecting eyepiece and diagonal mirror for comfortable terrestrial viewing. Store the instrument in a dry place and keep the optics covered when not in use to preserve performance.
