POLAR ALIGNMENT
TAKE THE TELESCOPE OUTSIDE AROUND 30 MINUTES BEFORE YOU ARE READY TO OBSERVE.
THIS WILL LET THE TELESCOPE COOL DOWN TO THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE. THIS WILL
ALLOW THE TELESCOPE TO PERFORM AT IT'S BEST.
ONCE IT'S DARK YOU ARE READY TO DO A POLAR ALIGNMENT. LOCATE THE STAR POLARIS,
AND POINT THE TELESCOPE'S R.A. AXIS TOWARD THE STAR POLARIS. TO DO A POLAR
ALIGNMENT, THE R.A. & DEC. AXES MUST BE LOCKED DOWN AND MUST NOT MOVE. TO GET
POLARIS IN THE EYEPIECE YOU MUST MOVE THE MOUNT IN AZIMUTH AND LATITUDE TO
CENTER POLARIS IN THE EYEPIECE. ONCE THIS IS DONE, LOCK THE AZIMUTH & LATITUDE
LOCK KNOBS, AND YOU ARE READY TO OBSERVE. NOW, TO MOVE THE TELESCOPE TO AN
OBJECT (MOON, JUPITER, SATURN ETC.) YOU MUST ONLY MOVE THE TELESCOPE IN THE
R.A. & DEC. AXES AFTER THE POLAR ALIGNMENT HAS BEEN COMPLETED. LOOSEN THE
R.A. & DEC. AXES AND MOVE THE TELESCOPE TO AN OBJECT BY LOOKING THROUGH THE
FINDER (WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN ALIGNED), AND PLACE THE RED DOT ON THE OBJECT.
START OBSERVING BY USING THE 25MM EYEPIECE WHICH GIVES YOU THE WIDEST FIELD
OF VIEW AND BRIGHTEST IMAGE. WHEN OBSERVING THE MOON AND PLANETS START OUT
WITH THE 25MM EYEPIECE. WHEN YOU WANT TO GET A LARGER IMAGE, CENTER THE
OBJECT IN THE EYEPIECE, AND CAREFULLY TAKE THE 25MM OUT AND REPLACE IT WITH
THE 10MM.WHEN USING THE BARLOW, IT MUST BE PLACED INTO THE FOCUSER BEFORE
THE EYEPIECE . THE 3 X BARLOW WILL TRIPLE THE POWER YOUR EYEPIECE
PRODUCES.
