The tripod that comes with your CPC telescope is adjustable. To adjust the height at which the tripod stands:
1.
Loosen the extension clamp on one of the tripod legs (see figure 3-1).
2.
Extend the leg to the desired height.
3.
Tighten the extension clamp to hold the leg in place.
4.
Repeat this process for each of the remaining legs making sure that the tripod is level when complete.
You can do this while the tripod legs are still folded together.
Remember that the higher the tripod legs are extended, the less stable it is. For casual observing, this may not pose a problem.
However, if you plan on doing photography, the tripod should be set low to ensure stability. A recommended height is to set the tripod
in such a manner that you can look directly into the eyepiece on
the telescope with a diagonal while seated.

Place the center hole in the bottom of the telescope base over the
positioning pin in the center of the tripod head.
