Assembling SkyProdigy
Your SkyProdigy comes in three major sections: the optical tube,
fork arm and tripod. These sections can be attached in seconds
using the quick release coupling screw located under the tripod
mounting platform and the dovetail mounting clamp located on
the inside of the fork arm. To begin, remove all of the accessories
from their individual boxes. Remember to save all of the contain-
ers so that they can be used to transport the telescope. Before
attaching the visual accessories, the telescope tube and fork arm
should be mounted to the tripod. First, install the accessory tray
onto the tripod legs:
1. Remove the tripod from the box and spread the legs apart
until the center leg brace is fully extended.
2. Locate the accessory tray, and place it on top of the tripod
center support brace in between the tripod legs
(see gure 2-1).
3. Rotate the accessory tray so that the central hole in the tray
slides over the ange post in the center of the support
bracket.
4. Finally, rotate the tray so that the locking tabs slide under the
locking clips on the support bracket. You will hear the tray
snap into place.
It is a good idea to level the tripod and adjust the height of the tripod
legs before attaching the fork arm and tube. Minor adjustments can
be made later. To adjust the height of the tripod legs:
1. Loosen the tripod leg locking bolt located on the side of
each leg.

3. Adjust the tripod height until the bubble level on the tripod
leg is centered (See gure 2-2).
4. Tighten the tripod locking bolts to hold each leg in place.
Attaching the Hand Control Holder
SkyProdigy comes with a snap-on hand control holder that con-
veniently attaches to any of the tripod legs. To attach the hand
control holder simply position the holder with the square plastic
tab facing up and push against the tripod leg until it snaps into
place (See gure 2-3).
Attaching the Fork Arm to the Tripod
With the tripod properly assembled, the telescope tube and
fork arm can easily be attached using the quick release coupling
screw located underneath the tripod mounting platform:
1. Place the fork arm base inside the tripod mounting platform.
2. Thread the coupling screw into the hole at the bottom of the
fork arm base and hand tighten (See gure 2-4).
