Using/Aligning the Red Dot Viewfinder:
The viewfinder is powered by a CR-2032 battery that is included. Before using the viewfinder for the first time,
remember to remove the plastic insulator that is blocking the battery from connecting.
For The Viewfinder To Be Effective, It Must Be Aligned. To do this:
• Insert the 26 mm eyepiece into
the diagonal and power on the
viewfinder by sliding the switch
on its right side to an “On”
position.
• Point the eyepiece at an easy to
identify target like a telephone
pole that is approximately 200
yards away. Center the object in
the eyepiece. Lock the telescope
into place by tightening the
locating screws on both the
altitude fine adjustment and the
altitude axis (Fig 1, #9 & Fig 2,
#10).
• Without moving the telescope,
position the red dot using the
two adjustment screws so that it
shares the same view as the one
in your eyepiece. The front screw
will move the viewfinder up and
down, and the other will move it
side to side. Your viewfinder is
now aligned.
Note: To preserve battery life, don’t
forget to turn off the viewfinder
after use.
Using your telescope:
After you have aligned your viewfinder, you are ready to start observing! Put the 26 mm eyepiece into the diagonal to
get the widest field of view. This wider field of view will make it easier to locate and track objects. Loosen the locating
screws for the altitude fine adjustment and the altitude axis to move the scope up, down and side to side until your
target comes into view in the eyepiece. When you have the object well placed in the eyepiece, you can re-tighten the
locating screws and fix the position of the telescope (Fig 1, #9 & Fig 2, #10).
It is important to remember that the rotation of the Earth means objects will move out of your eyepiece fairly quickly.
Once you have found and focused on your desired target, you can track it as it journeys across the night sky using the
panhandle.
For a closer look at an object, you can insert the 9.7 mm eyepiece. The magnification will increase from 27x to 72x.
For a more closer look at an object, you can insert the 2x Barlow lens. The magnification will increase to 54x for the
26 mm eyepiece and 144x for the 9.7 mm eyepiece.
Cleaning:
Your telescope is a precision optical device and keeping the optics free of dust and dirt is crucial for optimal
performance. To clean the lenses (objective and eyepiece) use only a photo-grade soft brush or a lint-free cloth, like a
microfiber cloth. Do not press down too hard while cleaning, as this might scratch the lens. Ask your parents to help if
your telescope is really dirty, if necessary, the cleaning cloth can be moistened with an optical glass cleaning fluid and
the lens wiped clean using very little pressure. Do not use harsh detergents!
Make sure your telescope is always protected against dust and dirt.
After use, leave it in a warm room to dry off before storing.
