Frequently asked questions

Loosen the R.A. lock lever and slide the counterweight along the shaft until it balances the telescope. The shaft should remain horizontal when you let go with both hands.

Aim the main telescope at a distant object, center it in the eyepiece, and then adjust the finder scope bracket's thumbscrews until the object is centered on the finder's crosshairs.
