Tasco EQ Reflectors-2 SKUs-6LIM 6 6 6/5/07 9:35:02 PM

CAUTION! Viewing the sun can cause permanent eye damage.

Do not view the sun with this telescope or even with the naked eye.

BALANCING YOUR TELESCOPE

Precise controls were built into your equatorial mount to hold the telescope

steady. When viewing at high magnications, even a slight breeze vibrating the

body can impair your ability to see detail. So to stack the cards on your side as

much as possible against the limitations of nature, it is important to balance your

telescope .

1. Level tripod by adjusting legs.

2. Loosen polar axis clamp and adjust polar axis to correspond to your observing

latitude. If you do not know your latitude, consult a map or atlas. Retighten clamp

screw.

TELESCOPE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Remove the three tripod legs (U) from the box. To attach tripod legs to tripod head (N) align the holes of the tripod legs with those of the equatorial mount. Secure each leg by inserting a large (3”) bolt with washer into the hole and secure with a wing nut and washer. Tighten bolts (Figs. 1 & 2).

2. Stand tripod and spread legs. Loosen the adjusting lock on each leg. Grab the equatorial mount

and lift. Extend the tripod legs to the desired height (at equal lengths). In addition,

tighten each leg’s adjusting locks to hold them in position (Figs. 3 & 4).

3. Remove telescope main body (J), counterweight (R), counterweight rod (S), and the two exible control cables (A) from the box. Carefully rest the telescope

main body tube in the cradle (Fig. 7) Be sure the cradle is positioned at the center of the telescope main body tube for proper balancing. Tighten the cradle locking knobs (Fig. 8). Attach the control cables (Fig. 13) to the declination (P) and hour axis (Q) cable studs. Loosen counterweight clamping screw (Fig. 11). Slide weight into rod. Thread counterweight rod into the threaded hole located below the declination axis (Fig. 11).

4. Remove the nderscope with nderscope bracket (H) attached from the box. Position the nderscope bracket on the telescope main body (Fig. 6).

5.Insert the eyepiece (Fig. 10) into the focus tube. Secure by tightening small

retaining screw. When using the Barlow tube, Insert eyepiece into open end of

Barlow and secure (Fig. 12).

The telescope is now fully assembled and ready for use.

Tasco EQ Reflectors-2 SKUs-6LIM 7 7 6/5/07 9:35:02 PM

BALANCING YOUR TELESCOPE

3. Loosen declination clamp screw and rotate telescope about the declination axis

so that “90°” on the declination scale is aligned with the xed pointer. Retighten

clamp screw.

4. Loosen hour axis clamp, rotate scope until the counter weight rod is in a

horizontal position. Do not tighten clamp screws.

5. If telescope is balanced, it will remain in place.

6. If telescope is out of balance, loosen counter weight thumb screw and slide

weight along rod until telescope remains in place. Tighten weight and hour axis screws.

TO USE THE STARPOINTER

1. The StarPointer 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 into the night sky. The star pointer is a zero magnication pointing tool

that uses a coated glass window to superimpose the image of a small red dot into

the night sky. Like all nderscopes, the StarPointer must be properly aligned with

the main telescope before it can be used.

2. To turn on the StarPointer, rotate the variable brightness control clockwise until you hear a “click.” To increase the brightness level of the red dot, continue

rotating the control knob about 180° until it stops.

3. Locate a bright star or planet and center it in a low power eyepiece in the main

telescope. If the StarPointer is perfectly aligned, you will see the red LED dot overlap the alignment star. If the StarPointer is not aligned, take notice of where

the red dot is relative to the bright star.

Without moving the main telescope, turn the StarPointer’s azimuth and altitude

alignment controls until the red dot is directly over the alignment star.

If the LED dot is brighter than the alignment star, it may make it difcult 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 StarPointer 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.

FINDING OBJECTS

1. Look through the StarPointer nderscope and pan the telescope until the object appears in the eld of view. Once it’s in the eld, tighten the altitude and azimuth

locks.

2. To center the object with the red dot in the StarPointer, use the ne adjustment

ring on the altitude slow motion rod assembly.

Tasco EQ Reflectors-2 SKUs-6LIM 8 8 6/5/07 9:35:02 PM

FOCUSING

1. Once you have found an object in the telescope, turn the focus knob until the

image is sharp.

2. To focus on an object that is nearer than your current target, turn the focus knob toward the eyepiece (i.e., so that the focus tube moves away from the front of the telescope). For more distant objects, turn the focus knob in the opposite

direction.

3. To achieve a truly sharp focus, never look through glass windows or across objects that produce heat waves, such as asphalt parking lots.

MAGNIFICATION

The magnication (or power) of a telescope varies depending upon the focal

length of the eyepiece being used and the focal length of the telescope.

To calculate magnication, use the following formula, in which FL = focal

length: Magnication = FL (telescope) in mm FL (eyepiece) in mm

SOLAR OBSERVATION

CAUTION! Viewing the sun can cause permanent eye damage. Do not view the sun with this product or even with the naked eye. Never leave a telescope unattended during the daytime; a child could look at the sun with it and suffer permanent damage to vision.

THE MOON FILTER

A moon lter has been included with your telescope for removing glare and increasing contrast when viewing the moon. To attach it to the telescope eyepiece, screw the lter onto the threaded end of the eyepiece.

CAUTION! The moon lter should only be used to view the moon. It is not

intended for viewing the sun. Viewing the sun through this telescope (with

or without the lter), or even with the naked eye, can cause permanent eye

damage.

EQUILIBRER LE TELESCOPE

Des dispositifs de contrôle précis ont été prévus sur la monture équatoriale an de maintenir le télescope bien en place. Dans le cas de grossissements importants,

le moindre tremblement de votre corps risque de vous cacher les détails. Dès

lors, pour bénécier des meilleures garanties, il convient de bien équilibrer votre

télescope.

1. Réglez les pieds pour poser le trépied de niveau.

2. Desserrez la bride de l’axe polaire et réglez l’axe polaire an qu’il corresponde

à la latitude de votre observation. Si vous ne connaissez pas la latitude, consultez

une carte ou un atlas. Reserrez la vis de la bride.

INSTRUCTIONS POUR L’ASSEMBLAGE DU TÉLESCOPE.

1. Sortez les trois pieds (U) du trépied de la boîte. Pour rattacher les pieds au

corps du trépied, alignez les trous dans les pieds par rapport à ceux de la monture

équatoriale. Serrez les boulons (Fig.1 & 2).

2. Levez le trépied et étendez les pieds. Desserrez le verrou de réglage de chaque pied. Saisissez la monture équatoriale et levez-la. Etirez les pieds du trépied

jusqu’à la longueur voulue (à hauteur égale). En plus, resserrez les verrous de réglage de chaque pied an de les maintenir en position (Fig. 3 & 4).

3. Sortez de la boîte le corps principal du télescope (J), le contrepoids ( R), la tige du contrepoids (S) et les deux câbles de contrôle exibles (A). Posez doucement

le tube principal du télescope sur la monture (Fig. 7). Veillez à ce que la monture

se trouve bien au centre du tube principal du télescope, an d’obtenir un équilibre

parfait. Serrez les verrous du support (Fig. 8). Rattachez les câbles de contrôle (Fig.13) aux goujons de l’axe de déclinaison (P) et horaire (Q). Relâchez les vis du contrepoids (Fig. 11). Glissez le poids dans la tige. Tournez la tige du contrepoids

dans le trou leté situé sous l’axe de la déclinaison (Fig. 11).

4. Sortez le télescope chercheur avec support (H) de la boîte. Placez le support du

télescope sur le corps principal du télescope (Fig.6).

5. Introduisez l’oculaire Barlow (Fig. 7) dans le tube de focalisation. Serrez à l’aide de la petite vis. Introduisez l’oculaire dans l’extrémité ouverte de l’oculaire

Barlow et serrez (Fig. 12).

Le télescope est à présent entièrement assemblé et est prêt à être utilisé.

ATTENTION: L’observation du soleil peut entraîner des lésions permanentes aux yeux. N’observez jamais le soleil ni à travers ce télescope, ni à l’oeil nu.
