THE EYEPIECE
Your telescope comes with two eyepieces. The 25 mm which will give low magnification with a moderately wide field of view. The
9 mm will give you higher magnification, but a narrower field of view. Additional eyepieces can be purchased to increase or decrease the
magnification to your desired level. When first locating an object, it is best to use the 25 mm eyepiece, then, once the object is centered,
change to the 9 mm eyepiece to “zoom in” on it.
THE STARPOINTER FINDERSCOPE
Your telescope comes with a StarPointer red-dot finderscope
that you will use as a sighting tool when aiming the telescope
at a target.
To install the finderscope:
1. Loosen the two Philips-head screws on the side of the
finderscope and slide the clamp over the dovetail bracket near
the telescope focuser. The large window on the finder should
be facing the front of the telescope.
2. Secure the finderscope in place by tightening the two Philips-
head screws. Do not over tighten these screws, just make the
connection snug.
3. Remove the small plastic tab under the battery cover by pulling
it straight out. This is installed to prevent the battery from
accidentally discharging during transportation.
To install the eyepiece on a 60LCM and 80LCM refracting
telescopes:
1. Loosen the setscrew on the open end of the star diagonal.
2. Insert the silver barrel of the 25 mm eyepiece into the star
diagonal.
3. T ighten the setscrews to secure the eyepiece in pace.
4. To see the sharpest image possible, focus by looking through
the eyepiece and slowly turning the focusing knobs until the
image comes into sharp focus.
To install the eyepiece on a 114LCM Newtonian telescope:
1. Loosen the setscrews on the end of the focuser and remove
the dust cap.
2. Insert the silver barrel of the 25 mm eyepiece directly into the
focuser.
3. Tighten the setscrew to secure the eyepiece in place.
4. To see the sharpest image possible, focus by looking through
the eyepiece and slowly turning the focusing knobs until the
image comes into sharp focus.
