QUICK SETUP GUIDE
1
Unpack your telescope and verify that all parts are
present. Your Travel Scope 70 includes: a telescope
tube, a tripod and mount head, two eyepieces, a
finderscope, an erect image diagonal and backpack.
To extend the tripod’s central column, turn the
locking knob counterclockwise, lift up the tripod
head until it is at the desired height and turn the
locking knob clockwise to secure.
Rotate the mounting platform so it is horizontal and
tighten the knob to secure it.
To set up the tripod, spread the legs outward until
they are fully extended and push down on the center
leg brace.
Loosen the knob on the side of the tripod head
mounting platform and rotate the platform 90
degrees so it is standing vertically.
Remove the cap from the focuser end of the
telescope tube and make sure the two setscrews do
not protrude into the opening.
Extend the legs of the tripod by unlocking the three
tripod lock levers on each leg. Pull each leg section
all the way out and push the lever on each lock
downward to secure it in place.
Match the threaded bolt in the mounting platform
to the threaded hole on the bottom of the telescope
tube and thread the two together. Do not overtighten.
This should be snug, but not tight.
Locate the erect image diagonal and remove the
plastic covers. Insert the barrel of the diagonal into
the focuser and secure in place by tightening the
setscrews.

Insert the barrel of the 20mm eyepiece into the
diagonal and tighten the setscrew.
Remove the lens cap from the front of the telescope.
To observe, look through the eyepiece as shown.
Focus the image by turning the knobs below the
focuser.
To move the scope right and left, hold a tripod leg
with one hand while the other hand uses the panning
handle to move the scope. You can loosen or tighten
the azimuth locking screw to adjust the tension.
Remove the knurled nuts on the threaded posts at
the focuser end of the telescope tube.
Locate the finderscope and remove the plastic caps
on the front and back lens. Orient the finderscope so
that the larger lens is facing towards the front of the
tube as shown. Place the finderscope over the posts
on the tube and replace the knurled nuts to secure
it in place.

CENTER THE TARGET
IN THE EYEPIECE
Look through the telescope using your lower
powered eyepiece. Move the telescope until the
object you chose lies in the center of the view. If the
image is blurry, gently turn the focus knobs until it
comes into sharp focus.
LOOK THROUGH FINDERSCOPE
Once the object is centered in your 20mm eyepiece,
look through the finderscope and locate the
crosshair reticle.
ADJUST THE FINDERSCOPE
Without moving the telescope, use the three finger
knobs on the finderscope bracket to move the finder
around in the bracket until the crosshair appears
over the same object you are observing in the
telescope’s 20mm eyepiece.
TIP: Try adjusting one screw at a time. Loosen one screw by half
a turn and tighten another by the same amount to ensure the
finderscope is securely held in place.
YOUR FINDERSCOPE IS
NOW ALIGNED!
It should not require realignment unless it is bumped
or dropped.
The finder is one of the most important parts of your telescope. It
helps you locate objects and center them in the eyepiece. The first
time you assemble your telescope, you need to align the finder to
the telescope’s main optics. It’s best to do this during the day*.
* SOLAR WARNING! Never attempt to view the Sun through any
telescope without a proper solar filter!
CHOOSE A TARGET
Take the telescope outside during the day and find
an easily recognizable object, like a streetlight,
license plate or sign. The object should be as far
away as possible, but at least a quarter mile away.

With the Moon visible in the sky, set up your
telescope with the 20mm eyepiece installed.
Look through the telescope’s 20mm eyepiece.
Gently turn the focus knobs to adjust the sharpness
of the image.
You can view many other celestial objects, such as
planets, star clusters and nebulae using this same
technique if you know where to find them in the
night sky.
Celestron’s free Starry Night & SkyPortal app for iOS
and Android can help you locate and identify a wide
array of celestial objects quickly and easily.
The best and easiest target for you to try to view first is the Moon.
Try observing the Moon at different points in its phase cycle. The
best time to view the Moon is from two days after a New Moon up to
a few days before a Full Moon. During this period, you will be able
to see the most detail in the craters and lunar mountain ranges.
To get a closer view of the Moon, loosen the set
screws on the focuser and remove the 20mm
eyepiece. Replace it with your 10mm eyepiece
and tighten the set screws to secure it in place.
The 10mm eyepiece will give you significantly more
magnification, making the Moon appear much larger.
NOTE: You may need to adjust the focus knobs when you change
eyepieces, to make sure you are getting the sharpest
image possible.
Move the telescope so that it is roughly pointing
toward the Moon.
Look through the finderscope and locate the
crosshair reticle. Continue moving the telescope
until the crosshair appears over the Moon.
CONGRATULATIONS!
