5.1. Aligning the Red Dot Finder

The red dot finder helps you quickly locate objects in the sky. To align it:

1. Негизги телескопту күндүзгү убакта алыскы, кыймылсыз объектке (мисалы, даракка же имаратка) багыттаңыз.
2. Look through the main telescope's eyepiece and center the object in the field of view.
3. Turn on the red dot finder. Look through the finder and adjust its alignment screws until the red dot is centered on the same object you see in the main telescope's eyepiece.

5.2. Solar Observation

CRITICAL: Ensure the certified solar filter is securely attached to the front of the telescope before attempting any solar observation. Never remove it while observing the sun.

1. With the solar filter securely in place, point the telescope towards the sun using the red dot finder. Do not look directly at the sun through the finder without proper solar protection.
2. Look through the eyepiece. You should see a safe, filtered image of the sun.
3. Adjust the focuser knob until the image of the sun is sharp and clear.

5.3. Night Sky Observation

For night sky viewing, remove the solar filter. Use the red dot finder to locate celestial objects.

1. Окулярды тандаңыз: Start with the H-20mm eyepiece for a wide field of view to easily locate objects. For higher magnification, switch to the SR-4mm eyepiece or use the 2x Barlow lens with either eyepiece.
2. Locate Object: Use the red dot finder to point the telescope at your desired celestial object (e.g., the Moon, a planet, or a bright star).
3. Фокус: Look through the eyepiece and slowly turn the focuser knob until the object appears sharp.
4. Көз салуу: Жер айланган сайын, объектилер андан чыгып кетишет view. Gently move the telescope using the azimuthal mount to keep the object centered.

5.4. Using the Smartphone Adapter

The included smartphone adapter allows you to capture photos of your observations.

1. Attach your smartphone to the adapter, ensuring the camera lens is aligned with the adapter's opening.
2. Carefully slide the adapter (with phone attached) over the eyepiece.
