2. Attach the Alt-Azimuth Mount:

   The alt-azimuth mount should already be attached to the tripod head. If not, secure it using the provided screw at the top of the tripod.

3. Montáž optického tubusu:

   Carefully place the 114mm reflector optical tube onto the alt-azimuth mount. Align the mounting screws or clamps on the mount with the optical tube's attachment points and tighten them securely. Do not overtighten.

4. Instalace hledáčku:

   Slide the red dot finderscope into its bracket on the optical tube and tighten the retaining screws. Ensure it is oriented correctly for easy viewIng.

5. Vložení okuláru:

   Loosen the thumbscrew on the focuser. Insert the desired eyepiece (e.g., PL26mm for lower magnification) into the focuser barrel. Tighten the thumbscrew to secure it. If using the 2x Barlow lens, insert the Barlow into the focuser first, then the eyepiece into the Barlow.

5. Návod k obsluze

5.1. Aligning the Red Dot Finderscope

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

1. During daylight, point the main telescope at a distant, stationary object (e.g., a treetop or street sign) at least a quarter-mile away.
2. Vycentrujte objekt v okuláru hlavního dalekohledu.
3. Turn on the red dot finderscope. Look through the finderscope and use its adjustment screws to move the red dot until it is centered on the same object you see in the main eyepiece.
4. Once aligned, the finderscope will accurately point to whatever the main telescope is viewIng.

5.2. Pozorování dalekohledem

1. Choose an Eyepiece: Start with the lowest magnification eyepiece (PL26mm) for a wider field of view, making it easier to locate objects. Once an object is centered, you can switch to a higher magnification eyepiece (PL9.7mm) or use the 2x Barlow lens for more detailed views.
2. Locate an Object: Use the aligned red dot finderscope to point the telescope at your desired celestial object.
3. Soustředit: Look through the eyepiece and slowly turn the focuser knobs until the image is sharp.
4. Sledování: As the Earth rotates, objects will drift out of view. Gently move the telescope using the alt-azimuth mount's handles to keep the object centered.

5.3. Using the Smartphone Adapter for Astrophotography

The included smartphone adapter allows you to capture images of celestial objects through your telescope.

1. Připojte adaptér: Secure your smartphone into the adapter's clamp.
2. Umístěte kameru: Align your phone's camera lens with the telescope's eyepiece. The adapter has adjustments to help center the camera over the eyepiece.
3. Focus and Capture: Once an object is in focus through the eyepiece, use your phone's camera app to take photos or record videos. Experiment with different camera settings (e.g., exposure, ISO) for best results.

6. Údržba a péče

• Čištění optiky: Dust on the primary mirror or eyepieces should be removed carefully. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove loose particles. For stubborn smudges, use a specialized optical cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth designed for optics. Avoid touching optical surfaces with bare hands.
• Skladování: When not in use, store the telescope in a dry, dust-free environment. Keep dust caps on the optical tube and eyepieces.
• Mechanické díly: Periodically check all screws and knobs for tightness. Do not lubricate any parts unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer.
