into the back of the angle prism, as

set screw that holds the eyepiece in

Step 9 

Check the flip mirror switch.  This 
switch lets you choose to observe

top of the telescope. To observe using 
the back of the telescope, the switch 
should be oriented parallel to the tele-
scope tube, as shown in Figure 9. 

Figure 9 – The flip mirror is set so that
