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 differing 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 packaging, 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.

screws (12) from below through the fastening devices in the tray (No. 7a).
4.2. Model (No. 3b): First unscrew the fastening screw for the accessory tray (12). Now insert the accessory tray (10) as seen in
Fig. (No. 7b) Lastly screw the fastening screw (12) in the middle tightly, to secure the accessory tray (10).
5. Tube
Hold the telescope's main tube (1) as shown, in the middle of the alt-azimuth mount (9), and screw the screws (8) into the tube
from both sides (No. 8).
6. Vertical fine adjustment
To mount the vertical fine adjustment (17), first push the adjustment rod through holding device (X) on the mount (No. 9a). Then
undo the screw (Y) for the adjustment rod, and insert it on the other end of the rod. Then tighten it in place (No. 9b).
Important:
Do not overtighten the vertical fine adjustment fastening screw. If you do, the main tube will not be vertically
adjustable.
RISK OF BLINDNESS
Never use this device to look directly at the sun or in the direct proximity of the sun. Doing so may result in a
risk of blindness.
7. Assembling the finder scope/LED finder scope
Note: The LED finder scope's battery is safeguarded against discharge with plastic foil when shipped. The foil must be removed
before first use (No.1d).
7.1. Finder scope installation (type I): Finder scope with threaded mounting
The finder scope and finder scope mount (No. 1a, 2) are included in the packaging. Remove the finder scope mount fastening
screws on the main tube (No. 1a, 14), and set the mount onto the projecting screws on the telescope's main tube. Carefully rein-
sert and tighten the screws previously removed to securely fasten the finder scope mount in place. Now, undo the finder scope
adjusting screws (No. 1a, 3) — 3 or 6 of them depending on finder scope model — until the finder scope can easily be slid
into its mount. Important: Make sure the finder scope lens points toward the main tube end (No. 1, 4). Retighten the screws
equally to securely fasten the finder scope in place.
7.2. Finder scope assembly (type II): LED finder scope with screw threading
To assemble the LED finder scope (No. 1b, 2), remove the LED finder scope fastening screws on the telescope's main tube (No.
1c, 14). Set the LED finder scope onto the projecting screws on the telescope's main tube. Then carefully reinsert and tighten the
screws previously removed to securely fasten the LED finder scope in place.
Important: Make sure the LED finder scope lens points towards the main tube end (No. 1, 4).
7.3. Finder scope assembly (type III): LED finder scope with Quick Insert
The LED finder scope (No. 1b, 2) and mount constitute a single unit. Slide the foot of the LED finder scope completely into the
appropriate base on the telescope's main tube (No. 10, X). The finder scope mount will snap in place.
Important: Make sure the LED finder scope lens points towards the main tube end (No. 1, 4).
7.4. Finder scope assembly (type IV): Finder scope with Quick Insert
The finder scope and its mount are preassembled and included in the packaging. Slide the finder scope mount foot entirely into
the appropriate base on the telescope's main tube (No. 10, X). The finder scope mount will snap in place.
Important: Make sure the LED finder scope lens points towards the main tube end (No. 1, 4).
There are two clamping screws (No. 1c, 14) and a spring-loaded counter screw on the finder scope mount. Evenly tighten the
clamping screws until resistance is felt to securely fasten the finder scope in place.
8. Aligning the finder scope
8.1 Aligning types I and IV (finder scopes)
The finder scope must be adjusted before use; the finder scope and the telescope's main tube must be aligned parallel to one
another. Insert the eyepiece with the greatest focal length into the zenith mirror (12b, refracting telescopes only) or directly into
the eyepiece supports (No. 13, reflecting telescopes only). Point the telescope at a significant object approximately 300 metres
away (e.g. a house gable, church tower top or building facade) and adjust until the object appears in the centre of the field of
vision (No. 15a, A). Look through the finder scope and align it by turning the 3 or 6 adjustment screws until the object is visible in
the middle of the crosshairs. The image you previously saw through your telescope lens must be visible exactly in the centre of
the finder scope (2) crosshairs in order to align properly (No. 15a, C).
HINT

Some finder scopes have no integrated optical image reversion.
The image in these finder scopes will be upside down. This is not a fault.
8.2 Aligning types II and III (LED finder scopes)
The LED finder scope must be adjusted before use; the LED finder scope and the telescope tube must be aligned parallel to one
another. Insert the eyepiece with the greatest focal length into the zenith mirror (No. 12b, refracting telescopes only) or directly
into the eyepiece supports (No. 13, reflecting telescopes only). Point the telescope at a significant object approximately 300
metres away (e.g. a house gable, church tower top or building facade) and adjust until the object appears in the centre of the
field of vision (No. 15b, A). Then turn the LED finder scope (2) on using the On/Off switch (No. 1b, Z). Select setting 2 for daytime
or setting 1 for nighttime. Look through the LED finder scope and align it by turning the horizontal (No. 1b, X) and vertical (No. 1b,
Y) adjustment screws until you see the red dot in the centre of the image (No. 15b, C). The finder scope and telescope are now
aligned.
9. Protection caps
In order to protect the inside of your telescope from dust and dirt, the tube opening is protected by a dust-protection cap (No. 11,
X). To use the telescope, remove the cap from the opening.
10. Inserting the eyepiece
10.1. On refracting telescopes
Two eyepieces (18) and a star diagonal prism (19) are supplied with this telescope. The eyepieces allow you to decide which
magnification you want your telescope to have. Before you insert the eyepiece and the star diagonal prism, you must remove
the dust-protection cap from the eyepiece connection tube (6). Loosen the screw (No. 12a, X) on the eyepiece connection tube
and insert the star diagonal prism. Retighten the screw (X) on the eyepiece connection tube. Release the clamping screw (No.
12b, X) to fasten the 20 mm eyepiece into the zenith mirror in the same way, and then retighten the clamping screw to secure
the eyepiece in place. Make sure that the eyepiece is pointing vertically upward. If it is not, loosen the screw (No. 12a, X) on the
eyepiece connection tube and rotate the star diagonal prism into the vertical position. Remove the dust cap from the main tube
end.
10.2. On reflecting telescopes
Loosen the clamping screws on the eyepiece supports (6). Insert the 20 mm eyepiece (18) directly into the eyepiece supports.
Hand tighten the clamping screws (No. 13, X). Remove the dust cap from the main tube end.
PART II - HANDLING
1. Mount
Your telescope is equipped with an azimuth mount that makes it easy to adjust your telescope horizontally and vertically.
2. Setup
A dark place is essential for observations because light of all kinds (e.g. street lamps) disturb the visible details of the sky. If
you leave a bright room at night, your eyes need approximately 20 minutes to reach full night adaptation, after which you can
begin your observations. Don't observe from enclosed areas, and put your telescope in location, with the accessories, at least
30 minutes before beginning observation, in order to guarantee a temperature balance. You should also make sure that the
telescope is placed on stable and even ground.
3. Vertical and horizontal adjustment
3.1. Vertical adjustment
Loosen the fastening screw (No. 14a, X) and move the tube up or down. Once you find the right setting, hand tighten the screw
to secure the adjustment. Minor changes can be carried out by slight turns of the adjustment wheel (No. 14b, Y). Before readjus-
ting, loosen the fastening screw (No. 14a, X).
3.2. Horizontal adjustment
To move the telescope horizontally, loosen the fastening screw (No. 16, Z) and turn the device in the desired direction. Once
you've reached the desired position, hand tighten the fastening screw.
