HELPFUL HINTS FOR SETTING UP YOUR TELESCOPE
1)
Unpack the tripod from the box. Next, stand the
tripod up vertically by dragging the leg extension
and spread the legs apart fully.
2)
Slide the telescope bracket (5) and adjust the holes.
3)
Remove the lens lids (11 & 1) from the eyepiece
and the objective lens (10 & 2).
OBSERVING ASTRONOMICAL OBJECTS THROUGH YOUR TELESCOPE
1)
Glance through the main telescope's eyepiece (10) for your object. (Note: You may have to alter the
angle of the telescope slightly.) The object will most likely seem to be blurry at this stage, but that
is normal. You are just trying to get the object in the viewing field of your telescope lens. Once you
have accomplished this task, fasten the knob bolt (6) to keep the accuracy of your telescope steady.
2)
Now adjust the focusing tube (9) by turning the focusing knob (12) slowly back and forth until the
blurred object becomes precise.
3)
If you are going to be looking through the telescope for a short period of time, you can insert the
eyepiece (10) directly into the focusing tube (9). To be more comfortable when using your telescope
for longer periods of time, place the diagonal mirror (13) into the focusing tube (9) and the eyepiece
(10) into the diagonal mirror.
VIEWING TERRESTRIAL OBJECTS THROUGH YOUR TELESCOPE
(Only applicable to item no. 23031)
For viewing terrestrial objects, remove the diagonal mirror (13) and the eyepiece (10) from the focusing
tube (9). Insert the erecting eyepiece (14) into the focusing tube. The erecting eyepiece can also be used as a
21x microscope by placing the objective end (the end with the transparent tube) flat on an object and
looking through the eyepiece.

SETTING UP AND REMOVING THE SMART PHONE ADAPTER
Conventional methods which help identify and locate the celestial objects often trouble the novice users
either by cost or manual labor. A new, convenient and accurate way is to utilize the smartphone software
application.
To aid in using the software application, you have a smartphone adapter to secure your smartphone onto the
telescope. Thus, your smartphone and telescope can be moved and adjusted together to locate the celestial
objects with your desired angle and direction.
To place your smart phone on the adaptor and remove it after use, follow these directions:
Attach the smartphone to the holder:
1) Loosen the large knob at the back of
the adaptor and put the smartphone on
it with face up.
2) Adjust the position of the horizontal arm to fit the
width of the smartphone and tighten the large knob so
that the smartphone is securely held in place.
Attach the telescope clip to the telescope tube:
3) Loosen the small knob on
the base of the clip.
4) Open the arc of the ring.
5) Attach clip to the telescope tube
with the flat side in upper position.
