TRIPOD/MOUNT
First unpack the tripod legs (18). Adjust them all at the same length by extending them by 30 to 40 cm.
Then fix the screws (19). Now prepare all the mount components (11) + (14) with the 3 long screws (16)
and the wing nuts (17).Fix the 3 tripod legs at the mount base (14). Slide the top of each tripod leg over
one of the tripod connections of the mount base (14). Then fix the screws (16) and (17) smoothly.
Note! The loose metal brackets (20) must points towards the inner side. All 3 screws (16) + (17) at the
tripod head/mount base (14) should mount into the same direction. Now unpack the tripod tray (21) and
the screws with washers (22) and wing nuts (23). Place the tripod and mount in front of you.Connect one
edge of the tripod tray (21) with one of the brackets (20) by sliding the bracket below the tray and use 1
set of screws & nuts (22) + (23) to fix it smoothly. Repeat the procedure with the 2 other edges of the
tray. Correct the fixings in a way that the tripod will stand even. Then firmly fix the tray (21) to the tripod.
Afterwards fix the screws (16) at the tripod head/mount base (14). A small triangle metal plate supplied
with the accessories serves ideally as a screw driver. Prepare the telescope mounting by fixing the
locking screw (15) tightly so that the mount won't rotate.
MOUNTING THE TELESCOPE
Unpack the telescope tube (1) thoroughly and remove the protection cover. For the time being leave the
covers at the lens (2) and at the eyepiece mount (7). Both at the left and right side within the tube there
are screw mounts with 2 wing screws (13). Remove these wing screws. At the right hand side of the
mount there is a chrome-plated screw (12). Unscrew it until the round opening in the lower fixed chrome-
plated part becomes fully free. Lift the telescope tube (1) over the mount (11). The bracket must be tilted
backwards. At the right hand side of the telescope tube there is a chrome-plated bar (8). Slide this bar in-
to the opening described at the lateral chrome-plated screw at the left side of the mount (8). Position
the telescope tube onto the mount bracket in a way that the two screw mounts match exactly with the
openings of them mount. Now screw the wing screws (13) through the bracket into the telescope tube
screw mounts. Fix the screws evenly while the telescope is in horizontal position. Also fix the chrome-
plated screw (8) at the right side of the mount. Now the two screws (13) at the telescope and the
screw (8) serve for the height adjustment of the telescope. For fine adjustment you can also use the
fine adjustment bar (9) by turning its socket union back and forth.
MOUNTING THE FINDERSCOPE
Loosen the screw (5) at the front end of the telescope tube near the eyepiece mount. Place the finder-
scope support onto the screws and fix the chrome-plated screw nuts. Now insert and fix the finderscope
using the 3 small screws. Make sure the finderscope is in center position of the support. (For details
refer to section Adjusting the Finderscope).
EYEPIECES AND ACCESSORIES
First remove the lens cover (2) at the telescope tube (1). On top of the cover, there is another small lid. If
you only remove the small lid, you can reduce the incidence of light. Now also remove the cover of the
eyepiece mount (7). When you do not use your telescope, make sure to put the covers back.
