Take time to read through this manual before setting up your telescope. Try setting it up a few times during the day until
you become familiar with the use of your telescope. It is much easier to do this in the daytime than trying to set the tele-
scope up for the first time in the dark.
Your telescope is designed to give you years of fun and rewarding observations. However, there are a few things to consid-
er before using your telescope that will ensure your safety and protect your equipment.
WARNING:
Never look directly at the sun with the naked eye or with a telescope (unless you have the proper solar filter).
Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result.
Never use your telescope to project an image of the sun onto any surface. Internal heat build-up can damage the telescope and any accessories attached to it.
Never use an eyepiece solar filter or a Herschel wedge. Internal heat build-up inside the telescope can cause these devices to crack or break, allowing unfiltered sunlight to
pass through to the eye.
Do not leave the telescope unsupervised, especially when adults unfamiliar with your telescope or children are present.
