Unpacking
Unpacking your scope
1. With the box flaps open and the top foam pad removed, orient the box
so the Teleport logo on the top of the cover is right-reading.
2. Slide a hand down each side about two inches and insert your fingers
below the cover flaps and into the altitude rings (see Fig 4, page 5)
3. Grasp both rings firmly, lift the Teleport straight up out of the box and
set it down gently.
Removing and Storing the Slip Cover
The Teleport cover is designed to protect your telescope from sun,
airborne particulates and dew or brief, light rain. It is not intended to
withstand prolonged or heavy rain. If such conditions occur, move your
telescope to shelter.
1. Pull the flaps around the top loose from
their velcro tabs and fold the top back.
2. Grasp the cover by the side openings and
lift it off.
3. Fold the body of the cover flat (Fig 6),
4. Fold in half along the corner seams (Fig 7).
5. Fold horizontally (Fig 8) up into the lid
6. Pull the top flaps around the folded body
and press the velcro tabs in place.
7. Align the folded cover on the lower front
of the scope and press it onto the velcro
strip provided.
Replacing the Slip Cover
1. Pull the cover away from the velcro, unfold
it and orient it over the scope.
2. With the lid up, slide it onto the scope until
the straps rest on the top plate. Close the
lid and press the velcro tabs in place on
front and sides
2. The top may be lifted to access the handle
for straight level carrying. The side tabs
allow access to the altitude rings for more
controlled movement such as in and out of a
vehicle, through doorways, on stairs, etc.
