Meade 60AZ-T instruction manual Maintenance, Specifications

The general rule regarding power: Only use as much magnification as supports a steady, well-defined image. The stability of the air varies and is one reason why having various eyepieces is highly desirable. Higher powers are no guaranty of better images; in fact, the opposite is often true. Keep in mind, that land viewing and wide-field,deep-space observation generally operate best with low-powered eyepieces.

MAINTENANCE

The Meade 60mm Compact Refractor telescope should be stored in a dry and dust-free location. It should not be stored in direct sunlight. Avoid overcleaning the lens. A little dust on the the lens hardly affects image quality.
