There are several different types of eyepiece holders:

Set-Screw-- this is a small screw on the side of the diagonal that holds in the eyepiece.

Compression ring-- again a small set screw but a brass compression ring tightens onto the eyepiece.

Plain Compression Diagonal-- the diagonal is a tight fit to the eyepiece- try binding it slightly in to get a tighter fit.

We just got our Bushnell Voyager 78-9945 Reflector Telescope. It comes with the poorest manual I have ever seen. How do you assemble the eye piece?, what is the little shiny metal triangle piece for? Does...

I think I already answered this question. Eyepieces are NOT assembled they are one piece like this picture:
http://www.amazon.com/Celestron-93342-17MM-Plossl-Eyepiece/dp/B000YKZKNI

They simply slip into the hole of the focuser -- straight in. The larger the number written on the eyepiece the LOWER the magnification.

In the picture above there is a metal triangle holding the tripod legs apart-- it is called a "tripod spreader" or a tripod "tray"-- used for holding eyepieces and other small pieces of equipment while you are using the scope.

Hope that helps you.

Where can i buy new Bushnell Voyager 78-9675 eye pieces and spoter scope

Many on line retailers sell eyepieces. They come in three sizes, .965, 1.25, and 2 inch.

Measure the hole in the focuser. The .965 inch size is harder to find.

Here are two retailers who sell eyepieces:

Will not focus, only light comes through, no image at all

All the manuals for Bushnell telescopes are located on this web site- look down the page for your model telescope:
http://www.opticsplanet.net/bushnell-warranty.html

Put the eyepiece with the LARGEST number written on it into the focuser, this is your lowest magnification.

Take the scope outside during the daytime and practice focusing on a distant object. Turn the focus knob slowly while keeping your eye on the eyepiece, watching closely for a focused image.

Read my TIPS on my profile page.

I got a beautiful scope in a estate sale but it seems as the end with the cap is on the wrong side it is right next to the eye piece? Also the elbo for the eye piece is missing can I get one?

The larger end is pointed UP, the diagonal and eyepiece go into the smaller end of the tube. Measure the hole, these come in .965, 1.25 and 2 inch sizes.

Many on line retailers sell these. Here is one retailer:

http://agenaastro.com/

a diagonal check the size of the hole:

Not worth repairing-- a new focuser for your telescope would cost as much or more than the telescope-- unless you can find a discarded telescope of the same model..... for parts.
