Setup - Orion StarBlast 6 User Manual

Set-up: Place the telescope on the table provided.
Put the eyepiece tray in place, and put the
eyepieces in the tray. Put the 25mm eyepiece in
the telescope by removing the dust caps and
placing in the eyepiece receiver. Remove the dust
cap from the front of the telescope tube. You are
now ready to start using the telescope.
This is a "push-to" telescope, meaning that the user
manually points the telescope at the desired target.
The telescope moves on two axes: altitude
(up/down) and azimuth (left/right). To locate an
object, you simply move the telescope manually
until you find what you are looking for. Once you
find an object, you will need to reposition the
telescope occasionally, as objects will drift out of
the "field of view" (what you see through the
eyepiece) due to Earth's rotation.
