ASSEMBLY OF YOUR
ZHUMELL DOBSONIAN TELESCOPE
STEP 2:
You are now ready to place the OTA onto the Base Assembly. Be sure to have the base
assembly ready to align with the OTA before you lift the optical tube. The indentations on the Base
Assembly will perfectly fit the silver Side Bearings on the OTA.
STEP 3:
Locate the Finderscope Bracket on the OTA. Loosen the thumbscrew on the bracket with your
fingers and slide the Finderscope into place. Tighten the screw so that the Finderscope is secure.
You are now ready to insert an eyepiece and begin using your Zhumell Dobsonian
telescope. Continue reading for instructions and viewing tips.
STEP 1:
Remove the (2) bolts found on the opening on one side of the OTA. This is where you will
connect the silver Side Bearing. Align the bearing (top bolt first) and tighten into place. Repeat on the other
side of the OTA.
