How to assemble the telescope
First, check if your telescope is comparable to version 01 or version 02 (pages 4 and 6). Before you get
started with the assembly, you should take some time to decide where you would like to set up your tel-
escope. It is important that you choose a place from which you have an uninhibited view of the sky, where
the floor is hard and even, and where you have enough space around you so that you feel comfortable.
When you've found the ideal spot, you can begin the assembly.
Version 01
Open the locking clips on the tripod legs (10). Then pull the lower parts of the tripod legs (11) downward
as far as they will go. Finally, close the locking clips again (Fig. 1). You can change the height of the tripod
at a later time by making the tripod legs a bit shorter (again, opening the locking clips, adjusting the legs,
closing the clips).
Connect the telescope (1) to the tripod by pushing the telescope connecting piece (8) into the holder on
the tripod head (9) (Fig. 2). Screw the locating screw for the vertical fine adjustment (12) into the holder in
order to firmly connect both parts.
