How to disassemble the Saga telescope

If you are not a professional, disassembly is not recommended.

If you do not have extensive experience adjusting telescope optical systems, cleaning telescope lenses should be limited to the outer surfaces of the objective and eyepiece lenses, which are also the most susceptible to staining.

For dust falling on the lens, you should first blow it off with a blower (available in photographic equipment stores) or a medical ear cleaning ball (available in pharmacies). Be careful not to blow the mirror surface with your mouth, otherwise it will fall on the lens. Saliva on the mirror can make subsequent cleaning more difficult.

If you can’t blow it off, try gently brushing it off with a fine camel hair brush. If the dust cannot be brushed off, you can use absorbent cotton balls (available in pharmacies) or cosmetic absorbent cotton swabs (available in supermarkets). Dip in distilled or purified water and gently stick it off.

After confirming that there are no dust particles visible to the naked eye on the surface of the lens, you can use a "mirror pen" (which looks like a thick pen, with a fine brush on one end and a soft leather pad with detergent on the other end) on photographic equipment. soft leather cushions (available in stores).

Wipe the lens in a spiral path from the center to the outside. Pay attention to the lens pen rotating continuously during the wiping process, and use moderate force.
