ALIGNING THE
FINDERSCOPE
The finder is one of the most important parts of your telescope. It helps you
locate objects and center them in the eyepiece. The first time you assemble your
telescope, you need to align the finder to the telescope's main optics. It's best
to do this during the day*.
* SOLAR WARNING!
Never attempt to view the Sun through any telescope
!
without a proper solar filter

CHOOSE A TARGET
Take the telescope outside during the day and find
an easily recognizable object, like a streetlight, license
plate or sign. The object should be as far away as
possible, but at least a quarter mile away.

ADJUST THE FINDERSCOPE
Without moving the telescope, use the three finger
knobs surrounding in the finderscope bracket to move
the finder around until the crosshair appears over
the same object you are observing in the telescope's
20mm eyepiece.
TIP: Try adjusting one screw at a time. Loosen
one screw by half a turn and tighten
another by the same amount to ensure the
finderscope is securely held in place.

CENTER THE TARGET
IN THE EYEPIECE
Look through the telescope using your lower powered
20mm eyepiece. Move the telescope until the object
you chose lies in the center of the view. If the image
is blurry, gently turn the focus knobs on either side of
the telescope until it comes into sharp focus.
NOTE: The image in your telescope may appear
inverted. This is perfectly normal in an
astronomical telescope.

or dropped.

LOOK THROUGH FINDERSCOPE
Once the object is centered in your 20mm eyepiece,
look through the finderscope and locate the crosshair
reticle.
