length is the number printed on the eyepiece. (For

Where do I find the Telescope Focal Length

The telescope focal length is the same focal

 

 

length as the objective focal length. For this

 

 

telescope it is 900mm. Telescope focal lengths

 

 

range from 600mm to 1200mm on Bausch & Lomb

 

 

and Bushnell telescopes.

What can I see with my telescope ?

Telescopes with power ranging from 25X to

 

 

50X can be used to view Star Clusters and Nebulae.

 

 

90X to 120X telescope can view galaxies. Most

 

 

planets can be seen at any magnification.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

If after you have set-up your new telescope you are unable to see any objects, use this Quick

Reference guide to help you to understand the cause of the problem and quickly determine a remedy

1.I’ve completed the set-up yet I cannot see anything

Check to see if objective lens cover and all other lens covers have been removed.

Try to view an object that is 200 or more yards away.

If there is more than one eyepiece included with the telescope, use the lowest power (highest number) eyepiece to begin viewing.

Use the Rack & Pinion Focusing Mechanism to bring the object you are trying to view into focus
