CARE OF YOUR TELESCOPE

A telescope is carefully aligned during construction and great care should be taken to maintain this alignment over the life of the telescope. Cleaning should be done as little as possible and then only with a mild soap solution and soft, lint-free cloth. Do not rub elements when cleaning. Blot optical components gently and allow telescope to air dry. Store telescope in box when not in use. Do not use alcohol or solvents to clean any parts of the telescope. Do not remove optical elements from telescope as doing so may affect the alignment of optical components when reassembled. If telescope needs realignment, contact Zhumell or another professional.
