1. Штативті орнату: Extend the tripod legs to a stable height. Secure the accessory tray to the center brace of the tripod.
2. Монтажды бекітіңіз: Place the alt-azimuth mount onto the tripod head and secure it with the provided screw.
3. Mount the Optical Tube: Attach the telescope optical tube to the alt-azimuth mount using the mounting rings or screws. Ensure it is securely fastened.
4. Finderscope бағдарламасын орнатыңыз: 5x24 іздеуші сканерді оптикалық түтіктегі кронштейнге сырғытып, бекіткіш бұрандаларды қатайтыңыз.
5. Диагональды айнаны салыңыз: Remove the dust cap from the focuser tube. Insert the diagonal mirror into the focuser and secure it with the small thumbscrew. The diagonal mirror provides a more comfortable viewкіру бұрышы.
6. Окулярды енгізу: Choose an eyepiece (e.g., H20mm for lowest magnification) and insert it into the diagonal mirror. Secure it with the thumbscrew.
7. Optional: Use the Barlow Lens: For increased magnification, insert the 3x Barlow lens into the diagonal mirror first, then insert an eyepiece into the Barlow lens.

4. Пайдалану нұсқаулары

4.1 Finderscope құрылғысын туралау

The finderscope helps locate objects before viewing them through the main telescope. It must be aligned with the main telescope during daylight hours.

1. Point the main telescope at a distant, easily identifiable object (e.g., a tree top or a street light).
2. Нысанды негізгі телескоптың окулярының ортасына орналастырыңыз.
3. Издеушіні қарап, туралау бұрандаларын сол нысан издеушінің айқас сызықтарының ортасында болғанша реттеңіз.

4.2 Фокустау

Once an object is located, turn the focuser knob slowly until the image appears sharp and clear. Fine-tune the focus for optimal clarity.

4.3 Үлкейтуді өзгерту

The magnification of your telescope is determined by the focal length of the telescope divided by the focal length of the eyepiece. Lower focal length eyepieces provide higher magnification.

• Low Magnification (H20mm): Use this eyepiece for initial object location and wide-field views.
• Medium Magnification (H12.5mm): Provides a closer view of objects.
• High Magnification (SR4mm): Best for detailed observations of the Moon and planets, but requires stable atmospheric conditions.
• Барлоу линзасы: The 3x Barlow lens triples the magnification of any eyepiece it is used with. Insert it between the diagonal mirror and the eyepiece.

4.4 Terrestrial and Celestial Observation

The Discovery Spark Travel 60 is suitable for both daytime terrestrial viewing and nighttime celestial observation. For terrestrial viewing, the erect image eyepiece can be used to provide a correctly oriented image.

5. Техникалық қызмет көрсету

Proper care will extend the life and performance of your telescope.

• Тазалау оптикасы: Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optical lenses. Breathe lightly on the lens surface before gently wiping. Avoid touching optical surfaces with your fingers.
• Сақтау орны: Always store the telescope and its accessories in the provided carrying case in a dry, dust-free environment. Replace all dust caps when not in use.
• Өңдеу: Avoid sudden impacts or rough handling, which can misalign optical components.

6. Ақаулықтарды жою

Мәселелерге тап болсаңыз, келесі жалпы мәселелер мен шешімдерді қараңыз:

• Сурет бұлыңғыр: Adjust the focuser knob slowly until the image is sharp. Ensure the eyepiece is fully inserted and secured. Check for condensation on the lenses.
• Нысандарды табу мүмкін емес: Ensure the finderscope is properly aligned with the main telescope (refer to Section 4.1). Start with the lowest magnification eyepiece (H20mm) for a wider field of view.
• Сурет күңгірт: This can occur with very high magnifications or in light-polluted areas. Try a lower magnification eyepiece.
• Сурет төңкерілген немесе керісінше: This is normal for astronomical telescopes. For terrestrial viewing, use the erect image eyepiece.
