Step 1 - If using 1¼” eyepiece, insert the eyepiece into 2” to 1¼” adapter and thread on the supplied 2” extension tube. If using 2” eyepiece, thread the extension tube directly onto the eyepiece. With eyepiece in and lens cap off, insert system into your focuser.
Step 2 - Push thumb tab 1 to the center position (Fig. B) and bring to focus. If focus is not achieved, then withdraw system from focuser. |
 |
|
Step 3 - Un-thread adjustable sleeve out approximately 1/4’’ and re-insert into your focuser. Bring to focus. If focus is achieved proceed to step 4. If not, repeat this procedure until focus is achieved. |
Step 4 - With focus achieved, tighten lock ring. No further adjustment will be necessary unless used in a different newtonian. |

| FILTER SLIDE INSTRUCTIONS |
The EarthWin Optical Power/ Filter Slide includes two empty filter cells which can be loaded with 2’’ filters by the user. Filters are held in place by a non-marring nylon tipped set screw and tightened with a supplied hex wrench. The Filter Cells can be loaded or easily withdrawn from the housing and replaced by different cells in a matter of seconds. Extra 2” filter cells and 1 1/4” adapter cells can be purchased separately and come in square plastic filter cases. The Filter Slide is independent of the Power Slide so filters can be introduced at any time. |
|
| Step 1 - Using the thumb tabs (3 & 4), pull both holders out of the Filter Slide. Insert your filters and seat to the bottom of the holder. Tighten set screw firmly to hold the filter in. |
| Step 2 - Re-insert the filter holders into the slide (filter holders are marked “L” and “R” on top corners). You are now ready to Filter Slide. Fig. F shows no filter in the light path. Figure G and H show filters pushed into position. |
