Do you know where I can get an assemby manual for this telescope. We cannot see anything out of the telescope, I think it is put together wrong. I have lost the manual. Thanks, Shawna

Go to the URL below it is the online complete manual for this telescope from Bushnell, it is free

Put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the telescope. Practice focusing on a distant object during the day time,. Also line-up the small finder scope with the main telescope.

The moon should be your first target at night.

This is a small 60mm refractor telescope. You will not find an exact manual but this one may help you put it together.

I think you have the wrong PICTURE shown in your question? This is a REFLECTOR style telescope I believe. Does it have a mirror inside?

Then point the end with the focuser UP-- the mirror is the bottom of the telescope. Take the lens cap off if there is one. Put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the focuser. DO NOT USE the 2x barlow if you have one.

Go outside during the day time and practice focusing on a distant object.

Read my Frequently asked questions tip on my profile page.

First you have what we call a department store telescope. It is 60mm, not much bigger than a pair of 10x50mm binoculars. Do NOT use the 2xbarlow if you have one, Put the eyepiece with the largest number written on it into the telescope and go outside during the day time and practice focusing on a distant object.

You probably will not find a manual-- however Meade telescopes maintains a web site for their scopes. Look under REFRACTOR on this page for one similar to your telescope. They all work the same way:

Did you put the eyepiece into the diagonal? ------- after you put the diagonal into the telescope. Erecting lens is a DIAGONAL by the way. "erecting diagonal"

Most astronomical telescope show upside down images-- no problem as up or down do not exist in space!

You can buy an "erecting" diagonal for terrestrial use.

if the scope is below 70mm of aperture it is hard to see anything, try using the lowest mag power example: 25mm lens.
