First information
Never look at the sun with a telescope or
any other optical device. Permanent and
irreversible damage would be done to
your eyes, which could lead to blindness.
For solar observation, there are special
solar filters that are mounted in front of
the front lens of the telescope. Please also
consider the small finder scope, which
must also be covered or equipped with a
solar filter.
Do not use eyepiece solar filters, as they
may crack and cause you to lose your
eyesight.
Also, please do not use the telescope for
solar projection. The heat generated inside
may destroy the telescope/eyepiece.
Never leave the telescope unattended,
especially when children are around. They
could endanger themselves and others
through lack of knowledge.
Only use the telescope for the type of ob-
servation described in these instructions.
