Reassembling an X-Cel...


The Warthog

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have, or know where I can get, an exploded diagram of a 5mm X-Cel? I decided to clean mine, as it had some dirt in the inside of the eye lens, but when it came apart, some of the pieces fell out, and I'm not sure which way to put them back in, and the whole thing doesn't fit back into the tube anyway.

*sigh*

OK, on second thought, I had another go at putting it together, and managed to get it all back into the box. Tried it out outside, and brought the trees down the street into sharp focus, but now there are some tiny black spots on the FOV - looks sort of like a black-on-white diagram of the Pleiades, and there's a partial fingerprint in the inside edge that a CSI team could use to get me 12 to 20 for abuse of a fine optical instrument.

If I can see little black spots, are they probably on the field lens?
