[Glen01246]

Hi I'm a complete novice just got my first telescope a skywatcher 130 with an eq2 but don't have a manual on how to set it up for the first time do you no were I could find one as who I got it from says you should set it up with the dials, hope I don't sound to daft, but I want to get the best out of it thanks Glen.

Hi Glen and welcome to SGL, although you now have a link to the manual for your scope, you might also like to have a look at this web site,  themcdonalds.net  under the section "setting up an equatorial mount" there is a wealth of information which you may find useful. Enjoy your new scope and the forum
