The telescope requires eyepieces to view images. An eyepiece is not included 
with the VMC260L.

  Choose a conspicuos target in the distance 

and place the target in the center of the field 

of view of the telescope.

In the illustration, a distant tower is brought 

into the center of the field of view of the 

telescope.

  As you look through the finder scope, you 

should find the same target somewhere 
within the finder‘s field of view. The finder 
scope has a crosshair.

  Align the optical axis (field of view) of the 

finder scope with the optical axis (field of 

view) of the telescope. Adjust the finder 

scope by loosening or tightening two of the 

three adjustment screw at a time, in turn, 

until the target is in the same position, in 

the center of the crosshair.
