ALIGNING THE FINDERSCOPE
The fi nder is one of the most important parts of your telescope. It helps you locate objects and center them in the eyepiece. The fi rst time you assemble your telescope, you
need to align the fi nder 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 fi lter!
1
CHOOSE A TARGET
Take the telescope outside during the day and fi nd 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.

telescope's 20 mm eyepiece.

Look through the telescope using your lower powered
eyepiece. Move the telescope until the object you chose lies in

focus knob until it comes into sharp focus.

when not in use.
