Pointing the telescope at the sun
Start with checking the solar filter - it has to be completely intact and firmly installed onto the
telescope. It is very easy to point the telescope to the sun - just hold a piece of white paper
about 20cm behind the telescope tube and watch the shadow on the paper. See Fig. 2. Point the
telescope to the approximate position of the sun and watch the outline of the telescope shadow
on the paper. Move the telescope until the area of the shadow is at its minimum. Now the sun can
be observed through the telescope with the 20mm eyepiece. For finding the sun, please only use
the 20mm eyepiece and without the Barlow lens. After you have centered the sun in the field of
view of the eyepiece you can increase power by using the Barlow lens to see more details.
Notes on use: Eyepiece magnification
Please use only the 20 mm eyepiece supplied for solar observation either by itself or together
with the 2x Barlow lens to limit maximum magnification to 18x or 35x. Greater magnification, e.g.
using the 4 mm eyepiece, yields blurred solar images. This is a design feature and not a defect.

Maintenance and cleaning

Clean the foil only if it is absolutely neccessary! For cleaning use a lint-free and soft cloth and
moisten it with a little water. Then clean the foil with the cloth very carefully and without pressure.
Note that the foil is very sensitive and it must not be used even with minor damages!
To avoid premature aging of the filter, it is recommended to store the filter in a light-protected
environment when it is not in use.
