Tasco 302012; D=114mm; F=900mm; coated optics. can anyone tell me where to get an instruction book on this item. Many thanks--Tom

Hi

You have a 4.5 inch reflector on an equatorial mount. For a manual, check with Tasco at 1-800-423-3537. For a good manual on this type of mount, check the Bushnell version at http://www.bushnell.com/customer_service/manuals/telescopes/Reflector_Equatorial_Mount.pdf

You should also explore our Telescope FAQ section at http://www.opticsplanet.net/telescope-faq.html

Lastly, we are always glad to help a beginner get started. If you have questions, call and ask for Joanie (me).
