Loosen the mount adjustment handle to adjust the direction where you want to focus, then adjust the focus wheel (9) to get a clear and sharp view.

MAGNIFICATION

Changing the eyepiece will change the power or magnification (see the EYEPIECE CHART ON NEXT PAGE). Focus re-adjustment may be required.

USE 2x BARLOW

Using the 2x Barlow will double the magnification or power. The Barlow is placed between the telescope and the eyepiece. Please note that the Barlow lens can not be used in conjunction with the diagonal prism. (see diagram below)

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR TELESCOPE

Always keep your eyepiece lens in the pouch. Use lens cloth or soft and lintless cloth when cleaning or wiping the lenses. Never attempt to clean the telescope internally or take it apart.Avoid sudden temperature fluctuations likely to cause any dampness in the air to condense on the telescope’s lens. If this phenomenon occurs, place the lens at a moderate distance away from a heat source and let the dampness evaporate away progressively.Warning: To avoid any eye injury never look directly into another optical instrument through the telescope and never observe the sun with unprotected eyes!This product is designed and intended for ages 13 years and older.
