This is important as the Earth spins, the object moves away from the view, you only need to adjust the Declination Axis. Use a computer program star chart to locate the object, choose the equatorial coordinate system. Adjust your telescope to point to the desired location, then use the view finder to locate the object. Once it is located, start with the lowest power of eyepiece, then change to higher power if desired.<a href="http://www.healthstorebargains.com/srch/srch.php?q=Detoxification"> an</a> First, set it up so that the telescope equatoral mount polar axis align with the Earth’s rotational axis to North.

These instructions for a similar scope should get you started.

The mirror and the front lens gather the light, the eye peaces multiply the light to give you a closer and larger view on the object you are viewing.<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/online-degree/education-major-categories.htm"> Stom</a> First, is it a reflector or refracting telescope, I will explain, a reflecting telescope uses a concave mirror to gather light then there is and angil mirror near the top of the telescope, the mirror focuses the light onto the angle mirror which reflects the light through the eye peace, that is a reflecting telescope, now for the refracting telescope, it has a lines at the front that gathers the light and focuses the light into the eye peace at the other end of the telescope.
