-Newtonian reflectors perform at their best when primary and secondary mirrors are accurately aligned. Such alignment, called collimation, is critical for achieving a sharp, highly resolved view through the telescope.
-The Laser Collimator, designed specifically for collimating the optics of Newtonian reflectors, provides a quick, easy way to a) determine if one or both of your telescope's mirrors need adjustment, and b) make the necessary adjustment(s) quickly and easily.
-It uses a low wattage laser to project a red beam down through the telescope's focuser. The beam reflects off the secondary mirror to the primary mirror, then bounces back up to the secondary mirror and exits through the focuser onto the angled, bulls-eye viewing screen of the collimator itself. The beam is generally not visible, but you'll see a bright red dot on each reflected surface. The Laser Collimator works equally well to collimate telescope optics in daylight or at night in the dark, and has been precisely aligned within its housing at the factory.
The Laser Collimator is powered by one CR2032 battery (Not Included). When the laser beam starts to dim or completely fades, it's time to replace the battery. To do so, unscrew the knurled battery compartment cap at the top of the collimator. With a knife tip or the end of a paper clip, lift the edge of the expired battery out. Insert a fresh CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side up. Then replace the cap. The CR2032 is a commonly used battery in watches, calculators, cameras, and other electronic devices, so you'll be able to find one at most drug/hardware stores or online.
Your Laser Collimator is manufactured of the highest quality components. The internal laser diode is precision aligned with the mechanical axis of the housing at the factory and tested to meet stringent specifications. Like all electronic equipment, the Laser Collimator should be handled with care. If it is dropped or handled roughly, the internal laser could become misaligned. Avoid exposing the collimator to water, dust, heat. To extend battery life, store the collimator in a cool, dry environment.
This adjustment tool can be used in all 1.25" focusers. We provide you with precise instructions in German and English, with a step-by-step explanation of how to adjust a Newtonian telescope using this laser unit. So, even if you are a newcomer to amateur astronomy, it is very simple to get the optimum performance out of your telescope.
