Finding the Sun:

NEVER look "up" along the telescope towards the Sun, or operate

the telescope without the solar filter unit installed or eye damage

may result.

1) Observe the shadow of the telescope, and point the telescope until the

smallest shadow is obtained.

2) Observe the rear white screen on the bullet finder. Adjust the

pointing of the telescope so that the bright dot appears in the center of

the target.

3) Install your widest eyepiece, such as a 25, 32 or 40mm to locate the

Sun in the eyepiece.

Using the Quark Jr. Filter Unit on other telescopes:

The Quark Jr. solar filter portion of the Scout can be removed by

unscrewing it from the cone section of the Scout. With the addition of

optional 1.25" or 2" snouts (part # SZ12, not included) it can be used on

other refractors in the F/4-F/9 focal ratio range. Note that the Scout

60mm filter unit has a 16mm clear aperture, slightly smaller than a

standard Quark and therefore offers a slightly smaller field of view on

other telescopes than a standard Quark.

In this application,

the Quark should

usually be placed

after the telescope

diagonal.

Telescopes over

80mm of aperture

will require the use

of an Energy Rejection Filter. Either use a UV/IR cut filter placed before

the telescope diagonal, or use a front mounted yellow/red glass Energy

Rejection Filter custom built to your telescope.

Please note, a Herschel Wedge or white light filter cannot be used with

the Quark. These filters pass very little light by design and so will result

in an extremely dark image if used with the Quark.
