- WARNING: Never look directly at the sun through the telescope or its finderscope. Doing so can cause immediate and irreversible eye damage, including blindness.
- Always supervise children when they are using the telescope.
- Ensure the tripod is stable on a flat, firm surface to prevent tipping.
- Keep all optical components clean and free from dust.

4.1. Assembling the Tripod
- Unfold the tripod legs and extend them to the desired height. Secure each leg with the locking clamps.
- Ensure the tripod is stable and level on a flat surface.
4.2. Attaching the Telescope Optical Tube
- Locate the mounting plate on the top of the tripod head.
- Align the telescope optical tube with the mounting plate and secure it using the provided screw. Ensure it is firmly attached.
Image: The Vivitar Refractor Telescope is shown fully assembled on its adjustable tripod, with the optical tube securely mounted and the eyepiece in place.
4.3. Installing the Diagonal Mirror and Eyepiece
- Remove the dust cap from the focuser tube at the back of the telescope.
- Insert the diagonal mirror into the focuser tube and tighten the small thumbscrew to secure it.
- Insert your chosen eyepiece (e.g., 20mm for lower magnification, 12.5mm for higher magnification) into the diagonal mirror and secure it with the thumbscrew.
4.4. Attaching the Finderscope
- Attach the finderscope to its bracket on the main telescope tube.
- Align the finderscope with the main telescope by looking through both at a distant object during daylight. Adjust the finderscope until the object is centered in both views.

5.1. Finding an Object
- Begin with the lowest magnification eyepiece (e.g., 20mm) for a wider field of view, מאכן עס גרינגער צו געפינען אַבדזשעקץ.
- Use the finderscope to aim at your desired object. Once centered in the finderscope, it should be visible in the main telescope eyepiece.
- Adjust the telescope's position using the panhandle mount for precise aiming.
5.2. פאָקוסינג
- Turn the focus knob slowly until the image appears sharp and clear.
- If the image is blurry, continue adjusting the focus knob in small increments until clarity is achieved.
5.3. Changing Magnification
- Once an object is in focus with a low-power eyepiece, you can switch to a higher-power eyepiece (e.g., 12.5mm) for greater magnification.
- Re-focus as necessary after changing eyepieces.

6. וישאַלט
- רייניקונג לענסעס: Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optical lenses. Gently wipe the lens surface. For stubborn smudges, use a small amount of optical lens cleaning fluid.
- סטאָרידזש: Store the telescope in a dry, dust-free environment. Keep all dust caps on the optical tube and eyepieces when not in use.
- ויסמיידן עקסטרעם טעמפּעראַטורעס: Do not expose the telescope to extreme hot or cold temperatures, as this can damage the optical components.

| די בילד איז בלערי | Out of focus; atmospheric conditions | Adjust the focus knob slowly. Wait for better viewing conditions if atmospheric distortion is suspected. |
| Cannot find object | Finderscope not aligned; using too high magnification | Align the finderscope during daylight. Start with the lowest magnification eyepiece. |
| בילד איז טונקל | Light pollution; small aperture; high magnification | Move to a darker viewing location. Use a lower magnification eyepiece. |
