JC-1000 Instruction Manual FINDERSCOPE ADJUSTMENT As the telescope only offers a limited field of view, it may be fairly hard to locate a given star or planet for observation. This is why the telescope is fitted with a cross-hair finderscope for orientation purposes.

JC-1000 Instruction Manual ALTITUDE-AZIMUTH MOUNT The telescope is fitted with an Altitude-Azimuth mount. “ Altitude ” refers to the telescope's up and down or vertical movement, while “Azimuth” refers to its sideways or horizontal movement. The Altitude Azimuth mount used in conjunction with the microad- justable Altitude control and Azimuth Lock (N) lets you see the entire night sky or any celestial body without having to move the tripod.
