6) After all nuts and bolts have been firmly tightened, the telescope optical tube
assembly can be attached to the yoke. Mount the optical tube assembly in the yoke as
shown in Fig. 6 and tighten the two altitude control locking knobs.
7) Locate the vertical fine adjustment rod. It is a chrome-plated metal rod about 6
inches long. Insert the smooth end into the chromed holder located on the side of the
yoke (See Fig. 7). You may have to loosen the large locking knob in order to insert
the chromed rod. Once the rod is inserted (with the end with the hole facing the
focusing assembly) tighten the large locking knob just enough to prevent the rod from
falling out. Locate the chromed post on the side of the telescope tube near the
focusing assembly. Remove the screw from the post. Insert it through the hole in the
end of the vertical fine adjustment rod and into the post. Turn the screw clockwise
until it is tight (See Fig. 8).

8) Remove the finder scope (with attached bracket) from the box. Remove the two
knurled thumbscrews from the telescope main tube (See Fig. 9). Position the finder
scope bracket onto the telescope tube so that the holes in the base of the bracket
line up with the exposed holes in the telescope tube. Replace the two knurled
thumbscrews and tighten securely (See Fig. 10).
