Setup Instructions

Unpack and lay out all of the parts in a large, clear area where you will have 

room to assemble the pieces.

1. Fully extend the legs of the tripod apart

2. On the head of the tripod is the Vertical Axis Screw and lock nut. Separate the 

    Vertical Axis Screw from the lock nut by holding the Vertical Axis Screw in 

    place and unscrewing the lock nut off the screw

3. Under the base of the telescope is the mounting platform. Align the head of the 

    tripod to the mounting platform so that the screw in the mounting platform lines 

    up with the holes of the mounting platform. Insert the Vertical Axis Screw 

    through the holes to attach the tripod to the telescope pieces together with 

    lock nut. 

Initial set up is shown in the picture on the left. Should look like picture on the 

right when finished.

4. Remove caps from telescope

Note: When mounting the parts ensure that the securing screws are not tightened 

too tightly. Tightening too tightly could result in damage the parts or the internal 

thread of the holders.
