The Ambassador mount is easy to move wherever you want to point it.
The up and down (altitude) is controlled by the altitude lock (Figure 2-12).
Loosen the altitude lock by turning it counterclockwise and when at the
desired location tighten the lock by turning it clockwise.
Note: Before tightening the altitude lock all the way on the 80mm, the target
object you are seeking should be located in the finderscope.
Figure 2-12
The side-to-side (azimuth) motion is controlled by the azimuth locking knob
(Figure 2-13). Loosen the azimuth locking knob by turning it
counterclockwise and when at the desired location tighten the lock.
Figure 2-13
When both knobs are loose you can find your objects easily and then lock
the controls. The images are shown for the 50mm and the 80mm are similar.
Note: If the up/down (altitude) motion appears too stiff or too loose, you
can adjust the tension. To do this, you can tighten or loosen the round knobs
(one on each side of the mount directly across from each other). Make sure
the locks in both axes are tight to begin. Hold both round knobs at the same
time and turn them slightly to loosen or tighten them. Then release the
altitude lock and check the tension. Keep adjusting the knobs until the
tension is satisfactory to you. The round knob is located directly above the
altitude lock as seen in Figure 2-12a.

A finderscope is a very small telescope mounted on the main telescope to make it easier to locate objects.
To install the finderscope:
1. Figure 2-14 shows the finderscope (at top) and the brackets with
mounting screws.
2. Mount the brackets in the holes on the optical tube (Figure 2-15) with
the thumbscrews and tighten. The mounted brackets are shown in
Figure 2-16.
3. Remove the lens caps from both ends of the Finderscope.
4. Put the finderscope inside the mounting brackets with the larger
diameter lens (objective end) facing towards the front (objective lens) of
the optical tube. You will need to back up the screws in the brackets so
the finderscope will fit inside them.
5. The Finderscope should be fit into the brackets where the thumbscrews
can be tightened inside the small grooves in the finderscope. Then,
hand tighten the thumbscrews. Figure 2-14
