4. Impostazione

Per assemblare il telescopio, segui questi passaggi:

1. Montare il treppiede: Extend the tripod legs to a stable height. Ensure the tripod is placed on a level surface.
2. Fissare il supporto: The altazimuth mount is pre-attached to the tripod. Ensure all knobs are tightened for stability.
3. Collegare il tubo ottico: Secure the telescope optical tube to the mount using the provided screws or clamps. Make sure it is firmly attached.
4. Installare il cercatore: Slide the finderscope into its bracket on the optical tube and tighten the retaining screws. Remove the dust caps from both ends of the finderscope.
5. Inserire lo specchio diagonale: Loosen the thumbscrew on the focuser and insert the diagonal mirror. Tighten the thumbscrew to secure it.
6. Inserire un oculare: Loosen the thumbscrew on the diagonal mirror and insert either the K10mm or K20mm eyepiece. Tighten the thumbscrew. The K20mm eyepiece provides lower magnification and a wider field of view, useful for locating objects.
7. Rimuovere il tappo antipolvere: Remove the large dust cap from the front of the telescope's optical tube.

5. Funzionamento del telescopio

Once assembled, you can begin observing.

5.1 Allineamento del cercatore

The finderscope helps you locate objects quickly. It must be aligned with the main telescope tube:

1. Puntare il telescopio principale verso un oggetto distante e fermo (ad esempio un albero o un edificio) durante le ore diurne.
2. Centrare l'oggetto nell'oculare del telescopio principale.
3. Guardare attraverso il cercatore e regolare le viti di allineamento finché lo stesso oggetto non risulta centrato nel reticolo del cercatore.

5.2 Messa a fuoco

To achieve a clear image, rotate the focuser knob until the object appears sharp. You may need to make fine adjustments as objects move or as your eyes adjust.

5.3 Osservazione

Use the altitude and azimuth lock knobs to move the telescope up/down and left/right. For fine adjustments, use the slow-motion control knob.

• Osservazioni astronomiche: Start with the K20mm eyepiece to locate celestial objects. Once centered, you can switch to the K10mm eyepiece for higher magnification.
• Terrestrial Observations: The diagonal mirror provides a corrected image for land viewing.

5.4 Using the Barlow Lens

The 3x Barlow lens increases the magnification of any eyepiece by three times. Insert the Barlow lens into the focuser first, then insert an eyepiece into the Barlow lens. This is useful for observing finer details on planets or the moon.

• Pulizia generale: Pulisci il tubo del telescopio e la montatura con un panno morbido e asciutto.amp stoffa. Evitare detergenti abrasivi.
