2. After all three legs have been attached to the tube and
mount, tighten all the acorn nuts with your wrench. Be careful
not to scrape or strip the threading and over tighten them.
3. Some legs of the Qian Series brass telescopes come with a
chained brass pan. To attach this, align the chained brass pan
plates to the holes on the tripod leg locks, then attach them
together with your Phillips-head screwdriver.
If your telescope is a Type 2 Model, then continue to the
Finder Scope assembly section. Otherwise, your telescope is
now fully assembled. Remember to cap the dust cover on the
front of your telescope when not in use.
B) Eyepiece, Diagonal & Finder Scope
1. Unthread the six thumbscrews on the Finder Scope
brackets until they are level with the inside of the backet. Now
insert the brass Finder Scope into the brackets, so the larger
end is facing the front of the telescope. The grooves on the
body of the Finder Scope should line up with the
thumbscrews equally until the finder scope is secure in the
brackets.
2. Remove the brass cover on the end of the focuser
draw-tube. Insert the chrome barrel of the diagonal into the
focusuer of the telescope and tighten it with the thumbscrew.

C) Using Your Telescope
Aiming The Telescope
- The Qian series telescope allows movement along two axis: altitude (up and down) and
azimuth (left and right). Loosen the azimuth lock knob and gently rotate the telescope to the desired position, then
tighten up the lock knob again.
To move the telescope up and down, firmly hold onto the telescope's focuser tube, loosen the altitude lock lever just
enough that you can move it, but not too loose that it will fall freely, then adjust it accordingly.
Focusing The Telescope
- If you are using a Type 1 Qian Series brass telescope, just aim your telescope towards an
object in the distance, then rotate the focus ring until the object comes into sharp focus.
