7 Site location

Choose a dark location to avoid an interference of dark adaption throughout lights. A flat and stable

surface is recommended.

Do not observe from closed rooms. Approx. 30 minutes before starting an observation, position the

telescope and the accessories on the desired location to allow a temperature compensation.

8 Setting up the tripod

1. Press the push button on the tripod center rod and at the same time slowly pull the tripod legs out-

wards until the tripod cross is fully extended.

2. Open the upper locking clips one after the other and pull out the tripod leg middle parts completely.

3. Open the lower locking clips one after the other and extend the tripod leg lower parts to the de-

sired height.

4. Make sure that the air bubble of the circular level is centered in the circle to ensure a level stand. If

necessary, readjust the lower parts of the tripod leg.

5. Close the locking clips.

6. Loosen the fixing screw for the height adjustment.

7. Extend the tripod head to the desired height using the crank.

8. Hand-tighten the fixing screw for the height adjustment.

9 Moving the tripod head

NOTICE

Tighten locking screws/rings only by hand.

Tighten locking screws/rings only by hand. Rings and threads can break when overtighten them!

1. Loosen the fixing screw for horizontal movement to move the tripod head to the right or to the left.

2. Tighten the fixing screw by hand to set the tripod in current horizontal position.

3. Loosen the fixation for vertical movement by turning the handle counterclockwise. Tilt the tripod

head up and down.

4. Turn the handle clockwise to to set the tripod head in current vertical position.

5. Loosen the fixing screw for the tripod tilt plate to tilt the the attached optics sidewards for a viewing

position up to 90 degrees.

8 / 16

6. Tilt the tilt plate to the right and tighten the fixing screw by hand to set the tilt plate in current posi-

tion.

10 Mounting the OTA on the tripod

NOTICE

Save the OTA when installing it.

Save the OTA always with one hand when installing it! It can cause serious damage if the device is

falling down.

1. Push the locking lever on the tripod head to the FREE position and simultaneously remove the tri-

pod head plate from the holder.

2. Screw the threaded screw of the tripod head plate into the thread of the mounting base of the op-

tical tube to fix the tripod head plate to the optical tube. Make sure that the fixing pin engages in

the corresponding hole.

3. Push the locking lever on the tripod head to the FREE position and insert the optical tube with the

mounted tripod head plate into the holder. Make sure that the objective lens points in the opposite

direction to the guide handle.

4. Push the locking lever into the LOCK position.

11 Installing accessories

Illustration2: Attach accessories to the optical tube

12 Using eyepieces

The magnification depends on the focal length of the telescope and the eyepiece. By changing the

eyepieces, the magnification can be varied.

Formula for calculating the magnification:

Focal length telescope : Focal length eyepiece = Magnification

Example calculation:

400 mm : 20 mm = 20x

Three eyepieces are included with this telescope. Always start observation with a high focal length

eyepiece (= low magnification).

13 Using the diagonal mirror

The diagonal mirror is inserted into the eyepiece holder in front of the eyepiece. This allows a more

comfortable view. It causes an image inversion to an upright but laterally inverted image.

14 Smartphone holder installation

S2 S5

Illustration3: Mounting the smartphone holder

S1 Mounting ring S2 Fixing screw (mounting ring)

S3 Guide rail S4 Smartphone*

S5 Clamping bolt S6 Fixing screw (guide rail)

CAUTION!When inserting and subsequently using the smartphone holder, always ensure that

the smartphone* inserted is secured in the holder in such a way that it cannot slip or fall! The

manufacturer accepts no responsibility for damage to the smartphone caused by improper or

incorrect handling!

1. Insert an eyepiece into the diagonal mirror on the telescope and fix it in place.

2. Put the smartphone holder with the mounting ring (S1) over the inserted eyepiece and screw it

tight with the fixing screw (S2).

3. Push the clamp bolts (S5) of the holder apart and clamp the smartphone* between them. Position

the smartphone lens exactly in the center of the eyepiece so that the image can be seen exactly in

the center of the display. If necessary, use the zoom function to adjust the image to fill the display.

4. Launch the Camera app* on the smartphone*. In the Camera app*, the image captured through

the eyepiece is displayed.

10 / 16

5. If necessary, correct the position of the smartphone* until the desired image section is displayed.

To do this, loosen the fixing screw (S6) on the underside of the holder and move the smartphone

up or down on the rail in the holder.

6. Use the shutter button of the camera app to take a picture of the observation object.

NOTICE!In order to be able to create an image that is as shake-free as possible, we recommend

using a remote control* (e.g. via Bluetooth) for the shutter release process.

*not included with the purchase

15 Before starting an observation

The tube opening and the eyepiece holder are protected by fust protection caps. Remove the protec-

tion caps before starting the observation. Replace cap when storing the it.

16 Observation

DANGER

Risk of blindness!

Never look directly at, or near the sun with this device. There is a RISK OF BLINDNESS!

1. Roughly align the telescope with the desired object (e.g. the moon) and look through the eyepiece.

2. By adjusting the telescope horizontally and vertically, bring the object into the center of the field of

view.

3. The object is magnified through the eyepiece.

4. If necessary, adjust the focus with the focus wheel.

5. By changing from a high focal length eyepiece to a low focal length eyepiece, the magnification

can be increased.

17 Troubleshooting

Problem/Error Possible solution

No image Remove protective caps;

Select eyepiece with lower magnification

Blurred picture Adjusting the focus using the focus wheel

No focusing possible Wait for temperature equalization

Bad picture Do not observe through glass panes

"Crooked" image despite diagonal mirror Aligning the eyepiece socket of the diagonal mir-

ror vertically

18 Cleaning and maintenance

NOTICE

Never take the objective out of its socket and do not modify its adjustment screws.

It is not possible to reinstall the objective in an accurate manner without specialist knowledge. A signi-

ficant reduction of the optical performance is the result. In this case the warranty claims become void!
