balance is essential if using an optional motor drive for accurate tracking.
1.
To balance the right ascension axis, move the counterweight shaft so it is parallel (horizontal) to
the ground. Slowly release the right ascension knob (#24) and see if the optical tube moves. If the
optical tube moves, then slide the counterweight up or down the counterweight shaft until the
optical tube remains stationary in the parallel position to the ground. When this happens, make
sure the counterweight lock is tight.
D.
To quickly move the telescope around horizontally
1.
Loosen the horizontal adjustment knob (#28), move the telescope to the position desired and then
tighten the knob.
F. To align the Star Pointer finderscope:
The Star Pointer is the quickest and easiest way to point your telescope exactly at a desired object in
the sky. It's like having a laser pointer that you can shine directly onto the night sky. The Star Pointer
is a zero magnification pointing tool that uses a coated glass window to superimpose the image of a
small red dot onto the night sky. While keeping both eyes open when looking through the Star Pointer,
simply move your telescope until the red dot, seen through the Star Pointer, merges with the object as
seen with your unaided eye. The red dot is produced by a light-emitting diode (LED); it is not a laser
beam and will not damage the glass window or your eye. The star pointer is powered by a long life 3-
volt lithium battery (#CR2032) located underneath the front portion of the Star Pointer. Like all
finderscopes, the Star Pointer must be properly aligned with the main telescope before it can be used.
This is a simple process using the azimuth and altitude control knobs located on the side and bottom of
the Star Pointer. The alignment procedure is best done at night since the LED dot will be difficult to
see during the day
.
1.
To turn on the Star Pointer, rotate the variable brightness control clockwise until you here a
"click". To increase the brightness level of the red dot, continue rotating the control knob about
180º until it stops.
2.
Locate a bright star or planet and center it in a low power eyepiece in the main telescope.
3.
With both eyes open, look through the glass window at the alignment star.
4.
If the Star Pointer is perfectly aligned, you will see the red LED dot overlap the alignment star. If
the Star Pointer is not aligned, take notice of where the red dot is relative to the bright star.
5.
Without moving the main telescope, turn the Star Pointer's azimuth and altitude alignment controls
(#4 & #6) until the red dot is directly over the alignment star.
If the LED dot is brighter than the alignment star, it may make it difficult to see the star. Turn the variable
brightness control counterclockwise, until the red dot is the same brightness as the alignment star. This will
make it easier to get an accurate alignment. The Star Pointer is now ready to be used . Remember to
always turn the power off after you have found an object. This will extend the life of both the battery
and the LED.
