Lost manual not sure how put together how to focus

You may have put the camera on manual focus. Two ways to do that.
1. There is a switch on the lens which allows you to select auto or manual focus. Be sure the switch is set on A or A/M. If it's on M, you are on manual focus.

2. In you menus, there might be a mode which is manual focus. Look in your manual index under Focus, manual. There might be a setting in the Focus Mode menu.

You can also try resetting your camera. This will put most things back to factory default mode, including the focus mode.

When playing around with controls, go step by step through the manual and try things out. Be sure to set the control you were playing with back to default unless you really understand that setting.

See the picture in your question --- bolt the small finder scope to the top of the main tube. Bolt the main tube to the tripod.

Put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the focuser. Practice focusing during the day time on a distant object. NO ONE has a manual for that small imported telescope. BUT-- it is similar to this one:

Bushnell manual- almost like your scope.

Put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the focuser. Make sure the lens cap is OFF.

Practice focusing during the day time on a distant object. DO NOT USE the 2 x barlow if you have one.

Here is a link to your manual:

All you have to do is agree to their terms and you get a free pdf download.

Good Luck!

You will not find a manual for this small refractor style telescope. Put the diagonal into the focuser--- then put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the diagonal.

Read my tips on my profile page and read this:

The 3 x barlow will be useless for this small telescope.

Put the 1.5 x erecting PRISM into the telescope and then put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the erecting prism. This is your lowest magnification.

Take the scope outside during the daytime and practice focusing on a distant object. Turn the focuser knobs slowly until the object comes into sharp focus.

Hope this helps all.... If the key is stuck (won't come out) and the column is NOT locked, one the gear shift there is a plastic sleeve. Put the gear shift in park...slide your hand below the knob and pull that sleeve up! Presto!!! it locks in park and the key comes out. I just put all the stuff i took apart back together on 2005 Focus... the other solutions may work but this is the first step to check... no tools and you know right away...

Should be fairly easy. Make sure to disconnect the positive battery cable. Remove the cover from around the column behind the steering wheel. Should take a star driver to remove the screws holding the cover together. Once the screws are removed pop the cover apart and you will see the multifunction switch on the column, should have two to three screws holding it to the column remove the screws and it should come out pretty easy replace with new one and put back together.

It sounds like you had the lens set for manual focus when you took the A / M switch plate off. If this was the case then when you but it back together the little arm behind the plate is on the wrong side of a moving gear assembly.

To fix, remove the auto/manual focus switch plate from the camera (just the one screw not the ribbon beneath) Push the switch over to A. Hook the bottom of the plate back to the lens and put the screw back in. Done!

If there is no other problem, he probably touched the focus adjustment in the back of the set. Open up the back and locate the flyback transformer (part with large red wire coming out the top). There will be 2 adjustment controls on it. One should be labeled screen, the other focus. Adjust the focus until crisp.
