Preparation for observations
Assembling of
telescope
Mount the bracket of finder (1) onto
the telescope tube and fix it with
the screws (2). Fix the finder with
a screw (3).
For the period of observation take off
the cover from the blend of telescope
tube and from the eyepiece tube.
Telescope has high magnifications and
consequently – small fields of view.
This complicates the search of objects
in the sky, that is why the telescope is
equipped with an optical finder with a
wide field of view. With the help of the
finder you can easily find the necessary
object in the sky and then observe it in
the field of view of the telescope.
For this purpose you should adjust
the parallelism of the optical axes of
telescope tube and optical finder.
Direct the telescope at a distant
object, inserting an eyepiece into
the eyepiece tube (eyepiece is not
included into the set).
Set the image of chosen object in
the centre of the field of view. Fix this
position of the telescope.
