With the bracket firmly attached to the telescope, you are ready to attach the finder to the bracket.
1. Slide the O-Ring over the back of the finderscope and position it on
the tube toward the objective end of the finderscope.
2. Slide the eyepiece end of the finderscope into the front ring of the
bracket (the front ring is the one without the adjustment screws),
then through the back ring. It may be necessary to push down the
spring loaded pivot screw so that the finder will pass through the
back ring (see figure 3-8)
3. Push the finder back until the O-Ring is snug inside the front ring of
the finder bracket.
4. Hand tighten the two adjustment thumb screws until they make
contact with the findersocpe.
Aligning the Finderscope
The finderscope is adjusted using two adjustment screws, located on the top and on the right (when looking though the finder) of the
finder bracket and a spring loaded pivot screw (located on the left side of the bracket). This allows you to turn the top adjustment screw
to move the finderscope up and down, and turn the right adjustment screw to move the finderscope right to left. The spring loaded pivot
screw puts constant pressure on the finder so that the adjustment screws are always making contact with the finder.
To make the alignment process a little easier, you should perform this task in the daytime when it is easier to locate objects in the
telescope without the finder. To align the finder:
1. Choose a conspicuous object that is in excess of one mile away. This will eliminate any possible parallax effect between the telescope
and the finder.
2. Point your telescope at the object you selected and center it in the main optics of the telescope.
3. Lock the azimuth and altitude clamps to hold the telescope in place.
4. Check the finder to see where the object is located in the field of view.
5. Adjust the thumb screws on the finder bracket, until the cross hairs are centered on the target.
Remember that the image orientation through the finder is inverted (i.e., upside down and reversed from left-to-right). Because of this, it
may take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the directional change each screw has on the finder
Attaching the hand Control
In order to protect your CPC telescope during shipping, the hand control unit has
been packaged along with the other telescope accessories and will need to be
plugged in to the drive base of your telescope. The hand control cable has a phone
jack style connector that will plug into the designated jack outlet located on the top
of the drive base (see figure 3-10). Your telescope also comes with a hand control
holder that must be attached to the fork arm. To connect the hand control to the
fork arm:
• Locate the hand control holder and slide it down into the slot located on the
fork arm (see figure 3-9)
• Push the connector into the jack until it clicks into place.
The hand control can now rest in the holder on the fork arm of the telescope.
