Setup und Installation

Follow these steps to properly install and use your Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal:

1. Attach to Telescope: Thread the diagonal onto the visual back of your telescope. Ensure it is securely tightened but do not overtighten.
2. Okular einsetzen: The diagonal comes with a 1.25" adapter sleeve pre-installed. To use a 1.25" eyepiece, simply insert it into the adapter.
3. Sicheres Okular: Rotate the orange twist-lock ring clockwise until the eyepiece is firmly held in place. The twist-lock mechanism provides even pressure around the eyepiece barrel, ensuring proper alignment and preventing damage.
4. Using 2" Eyepieces (if applicable): If you have a 2" eyepiece, first loosen the twist-lock ring and carefully remove the 1.25" adapter sleeve. Then, insert your 2" eyepiece directly into the diagonal's main barrel and secure it by rotating the twist-lock ring.

Bedienungsanleitung

Once installed, the Dielectric Star Diagonal operates passively, redirecting the light path. The primary operation involves inserting and securing eyepieces or other 1.25" or 2" accessories. Always ensure the twist-lock mechanism is fully engaged to prevent accessories from falling out, especially with heavier eyepieces. Adjust the orientation of the diagonal on the telescope's visual back to achieve the most comfortable viewing position for your setup.

Wartung

• Reinigung der Optik: Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optical surfaces. For stubborn smudges, use a small amount of optical cleaning fluid. Avoid touching the mirror surface directly.
• Gehäusereinigung: Wipe the aluminum housing with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Lagerung: Store the diagonal in a clean, dry environment, preferably in its original packaging or a protective case, to prevent dust accumulation and accidental damage. Keep dust caps on when not in use.

Fehlerbehebung

• Dim or Blurry Images: Ensure all optical connections (diagonal to telescope, eyepiece to diagonal) are secure. Check that eyepieces are clean and free from dust or smudges. Verify telescope focus.
• Eyepiece Not Holding Securely: Ensure the twist-lock ring is fully tightened. If using a 1.25" eyepiece, confirm the 1.25" adapter sleeve is correctly inserted into the diagonal before inserting the eyepiece.
• Diagonal Feels Loose: Re-tighten the diagonal onto the telescope's visual back. If the issue persists, consult your telescope's manual for proper attachment procedures.
