Red-dot Finder
An
eyepiece
(fig.1, #12) has a narrow field of view. A
red-dot viewfinder
(fig.1, #17) has a wider field of view, which makes it easier to locate objects.
Once the
red-dot viewfinder
is aligned to the optical tube, the red-dot
can be used to locate and place objects more easily in the telescope’s
eyepiece.
STEP 1:
Remove the two
thumbscrews
(fig. 1, #8) from the optical tube.
STEP 2:
Take the
red-dot viewfinder
and place the bracket onto the
threaded screws, with the viewfinder lens forward towards the front of the
telescope.
STEP 3:
Use the two
thumbscrews
to secure the
red-dot viewfinder
bracket to the optical tube. Tighten to a firm feel.
