..Installation: ..

Remove the tripod from the box and extend the legs by unlatching the lock and pulling

each of the legs out to full extension. Lock the latch back in place to secure the legs,

then spread apart the tripod on a flat and stable surface. Take the main body of the

telescope and attach it to the top of the Main Body Connecting Screw, aligning the

threaded hole with the screw. Tighten the knob on the underside of the attaching

bracket. Then, unscrew and remove the two bolts on the top of the telescope. Place the

Finder Scope over the screws. Make sure the Finder Scope bracket fits over the two

screws on the telescope securely, then tighten. Make sure that the Finder Scope is

facing the forward direction as shown above.

Install one of the two lenses included (F=6mm and F=12mm) into the focus tube and

secure it by tightening the screw. Make sure not to over tighten it. For easy viewing, you

can first install the Diagonal Periscope Viewer into the Focus Tube. Then insert one of

the lenses into the Diagonal Periscope Viewer and tighten it. Make sure the end on the

Diagonal Periscope Viewer without the screw is inserted into the focus tube of the

telescope.

..Using Your Telescope:..

Make sure the tripod is placed on a flat and stable surface.

Apply small and slow adjustments for focusing.

Use the Finder Scope first to acquire the target object, then use the Focus knob to

obtain a clear image.
