Extend the legs (Q) as shown in Fig. 1, and lock them at the  
desired height using the wing nut (1) supplied.

Connect the three legs to the tripod head (O) using the wing nut  
and the bolt (2), proceeding as shown in Fig. 2a.

Then attach the accessory tray (P) to the flanges of the tripod legs  
using the adjustment nuts and bolts supplied (see Fig. 3).

Once all of the bolts have been tightened down fully, the tele-
scope's main body can be attached to the tripod head yoke (M). 
Proceed as shown in Fig. 2b: mount the telescope's main body (H) 
in the yoke (M) and adjust it using the large locking screw (K).  
Then tighten down the yoke screw (see Fig. 2b and 2c).

 Remove the finderscope (G) with the attached bracket (F) from its  
 box. Then remove the two knurled thumbscrews from the tele 
scope's main body (H). Locate the finderscope bracket on the tele-
scope's main body so that the holes drilled in the bracket base line 
up with those exposed in the telescope's main body. Refit the two 
knurled thumbscrews and tighten them down securely
(see Fig. 4).

Insert the angle prism (D) into the focusing tube (C). Hold it in 
place by tightening down the corresponding mounting bolts
 (see Fig. 5).

Fit the eyepiece (E) into the angle prism (D). The eyepiece also 
requires adjusting using the small tightening screw (see Fig. 6).
