EVEN BEFORE YOU TOUCH YOUR TELESCOPE,
PLEASE
READ CAREFULLY
General notes, in this page.
CHAPTER 2 – "WHAT IS IN THE BOX" and
CHAPTER 3 – "HOW TO HANDLE THE
TELESCOPE"
If you handle the telescope in a wrong way, you could damage it, and such
damage is NOT covered by the warranty.
General notes about all telescopes:
Never use your telescope to look at the Sun, or even
near the Sun
.
Severe eye damage or even
permanent
blindness
may result.
Always cover your telescope in daytime (or keep the dome
closed).
Never leave the uncovered telescope unattended in daytime.
Do not use
Officina Stellare
telescopes even
to project
the image
of the Sun. Pointing the Sun may produce serious damage to the
telescope. Secondary mirror, secondary mirror support or internal
electronic parts may be damaged (or even set on fire!) simply by
the STRONG heat produced by the primary mirror when pointed
to the Sun.
NEVER use Herschel prisms or eyepiece filter. NEVER!!! Any
Officina Stellare
telescope is far too big for such devices.
