Part I—Construction
1. General/Location
These instructions detail the assembly and use of refracting and
reflecting telescopes with alt-azimuthal mountings.
Parts of these instructions contain differing instructions for the differ-
ing telescope models.
Before you begin construction, choose a suitable location for your
telescope. It is best to build this appliance in a place where you have
a clear view of the skies, a stable footing and sufficient space around
you.
Before beginning construction, remove all the parts from the packag-
ing, and, using the diagram, check to make sure no parts are missing.
NOTE
Important: Only secure screws finger tight. Do not
overtighten screws.
2. Tripod legs
First pull the centre of the three legs (13) out to the desired length.
Then screw the fastening screws (11) into the legs and tighten them
(No. 5).
3. Mounting and tripod
Securely fasten the mount (9) and tripod together. Insert the mount
into the tripod head (16), and push the screws (15) with washers
through the drilled holes in the tripod head and the mount fasteners
(No. 6). Add a second washer and a butterfly nut to each screw, and
tighten the nuts to permanently affix the mount to the tripod.
NOTE
Make sure the fastening devices (22) for the
accessories tray on the tripod legs face inward.
i HINT
Place a small spirit level on the accessories tray to
help you level your telescope during set up.
