Adjusting your Saxon Brass Telescope 15-45x50
Angle adjustments
You can adjust your telescope up or down by loosening the flip-lever located on the
right side of the mount. Once you have completed your adjustments, retighten the
flip lever to secure the telescope.
You can also adjust your telescope on a horizontal axis. To do so, loosen the
thumbscrew located near the base of the mount column. Once you have completed
your adjustments, retighten the thumbscrew to secure the telescope.
We recommend only adjusting the telescope one axis at a time. Always ensure that
your telescope is secure after making any adjustments.
Focus and zoom adjustments
To focus and use the zoom function on the telescope, turn the copper focus knob
located in front of the eyepiece. Ensure that the copper focus knob is not handled
roughly as this may result in the focusing mechanism being damaged.
