Operating Instructions

Telescope Movement:

For more drastic movement move the equatorial mount, and for minor slight 

movements move the telescope main body with the degree references. Refer to 

the image for reference.

In order to move the telescope horizontally (left to right):

1. Rotating entire Equatorial Mount: Loosen Horizontal Axis Lever and

use the Short Control Cable to pan the Equatorial Mount horizontally

(left to right). After you set the telescope in the desired position tighten

the Horizontal Axis Lever.

2. Rotating Telescope Main Body with Degree Reference: Loosen

the Polar Axis Lever and use the Long Control Cable to pan the

Telescope Main Body horizontally (left to right) and use the Longitude

Scale for degree adjustments. After you set the telescope in the

desired position tighten the Polar Axis Lever.

In order to move the telescope vertically (up and down):

1. Moving Equatorial Mount: Loosen Declination Axis Lever and

Declination Axis Clamp and use the Counterweight to move the

telescope to the desired position. After you set the telescope in the

desired position tighten both the Declination Axis Lever and the

Declination Axis Clamp.

2. Moving Telescope Main Body with Degree Reference: Loosen

Latitude Lever and use Counterweight to move the Telescope Main

Body vertically (up and down) and use the Latitude Scale for degree

adjustments. After you set the telescope in the desired position

tighten Latitude Lever

Adjusting the Finder Scope:

Since the telescope has a limited field of view, it can be quite difficult to locate 

a given star or planet. For this reason the telescope is fitted with a finder scope 

with reticule for orientation. It is advisable to complete the following settings in 

daylight.

1. Insert the eyepiece with the lowest magnification in the Zenith mirror

or Zenith prism. Look at a stationary easily recognizable object that

is not further away than 300m. Turn the telescope with the horizontal

axle, and move the vertical axle until the object is in the middle of the

field of view, and then focus the image. Tighten the adjusting screw

on the mount so that the telescope remains in this position (the higher

the object is above the horizon, the easier it is to locate).
