Setting up Skywatcher.

[camerauser]

Hi everybody, I am completely new to Astronomy .

I purchased my Sky-Watcher BK 1309 several weeks ago and have just got round to "getting educated" from you experts.

I have searched YouTube for help on setting up my Sky-Watcher but none of the videos were  relevant.

I will therefore be grateful if some one can help me.

Best regards,

camerauser.
