Transporting the Telescope
• Carry the telescope with one hand using the handle and the other grabbing the platform and
base together. An alternate way is to use the “football hold” as pictured below.
• Try not to bump the zoom eyepiece or the finder scope.
• Place the telescope on the car seat so that the eyepiece and the black finder do not bump into the
seat back or the seat buckle.
• Buckle the telescope in the seat as you would a person, as pictured below.
