MEADE S102 USER’S GUIDE
WARNING!
Never use a Meade telescope to look at the
Sun! Looking at or near the Sun will cause in-
stant and irreversible damage to your eye. Eye
damage is often painless, so there is no warning to
the observer that damage has occurred until it is too
late. Do not point the telescope at or near the Sun.
Do not look through the telescope or viewfinder as it
is moving. Children should always have adult supervi-
sion while observing.
INTRODUCTION
Your telescope is an excellent beginner’s instrument and is
designed to observe objects in the night sky and also on
land. It can be your personal window on the universe or al-
low you to intimately study the behavior of nesting birds on a
distant hillside. The telescope is shipped with the following
parts:
ASSEMBLY
The tripod is the basic support for your telescope and comes
pre-assembled from the factory; except for the accessory
tray. In order to use the scope a small amount of assembly is
required. Follow the below steps to assemble the telescope.
Note: Number in brackets, e.g., (3), refer to the item numbers
in Fig. A.
1. To setup the tripod, spread the legs out evenly and place
on solid ground. Loosen the leg lock knobs and extend
the inner legs to desired height. Do this for each leg until
the top of the tripod is approximately level. Re-lock the
leg lock knob.
2. Attach the accessory tray to the tripod by threading it
into the center nut between the tripod legs.
ATTACHING THE OPTICAL TUBE ASSEMBLY (OTA)
1. Remove the two lock knobs (2) from the optical tube
mount.
2. -Slide the Slow-motion control rod (8) into the slow-mo
tion control lock knob hole (9).
3. Place the optical tube (1) between the forks of the
mount, oriented as shown.
4. Thread the lock knobs (2) through each of the holes in
the forks of the mount and tighten to a firm feel.
ATTACHING THE RED-DOT FINDER
An eyepiece (1) has a narrow field of view. The included
viewfinder (4) has a wider field of view and red dot to make
it even easier to locate the viewing object. The red dot view-
finder also comes with an easy to install dovetail bracket.
1. To install the red dot viewfinder, slide the viewfinder
bracket into the dovetail adapter ( ).Fig C
2. -Next, secure the viewfinder in place with the single lock
ing knob.
REMOVING THE DUST COVERS
1. -Remove dust covers(6) at the front of the scope by pull
ing the cover away from the telescope.
2. Remove the dustcover from the focuser by pulling it out
of the focuser draw tube.
INSERTING THE EYEPIECE
1. Slide the 26mm eyepiece (5) into focuser draw tube.
2. Tighten thumbscrew to hold the eyepiece in place.
ALIGNING THE RED-DOT FINDER
Perform the first part of this procedure during the daytime
and the last step at night.
1. Point the telescope at an easy- to-find land object such

as the top of a telephone pole or a distant mountain or
tower. Look through the eyepiece and turn the focuser
knob (3) until the image is sharply focused. Center the
object precisely in the eyepiece’s field of view.
2. Turn on the red-dot viewfinder by rotating the large knob
under the viewfinder lens clockwise (see Fig. C). Turn
the knob to adjust the intensity of the red dot as desired.
3. Look through the viewfinder. Turn one or both of the
viewfinder’s alignment screws (see Fig. C) until the red-
dot is precisely over the same object as you centered in
the eyepiece.
4. Check this alignment at night on a celestial object, such
as the Moon or a bright star, and use the viewfinder’s
alignment screws to make any necessary refinements.
5. When finished, turn off the viewfinder by turning the
large knob under the viewfinder lens counter- clockwise
until it clicks.
MOVING THE TELESCOPE
Your telescope is alt-azimuth mounted. Alt-azimuth is just
a complicated way of saying that your telescope moves up
and down and from side to side. Other telescopes may be
mounted in different ways.
1. Slightly loosen both of the star-shaped vertical control
knobs (2) and slow-motion rod lock knob (9). Loosening
these knobs allow you to move the telescope up and
down.
2. Slightly loosen the horizontal lock knob (10). Loosening
this lock allows the telescope to be moved from side to
side.
3. Once an object is found, re-tighten the control knobs.
You can then turn the slow motion control knurled
knob(8) to make smooth and precise movements as you
can follow (or “track”) an object vertically as it moves in
the eyepiece.
4. To use the slow motion control feature (8) aim the tele-
scope at an object and tighten the control knobs (2,9).
Then lock the altitude lock knob (2) and rotate the slow
motion control (8) to follow the target in the vertical di-
rection.
CARING FOR YOUR TELESCOPE
Your telescope is a precision optical instrument designed for
a lifetime of rewarding viewing. It will rarely, if ever, require
factory servicing or maintenance. Follow these guidelines to
keep your telescope in the best condition:
Avoid cleaning the telescope’s optics. A little dust on the mir-
ror or lens surfaces of the telescope will not cause loss of
image quality. When absolutely necessary, dust on the lens
or mirrors should be removed with very gentle strokes of a
camel hair brush or blown off with an ear syringe (available at
most pharmacies)
Fingerprints and organic materials on the optics may be re-
moved with a solution of 3 parts distilled water to 1 part iso-
propyl alcohol. You may also add 1 drop of biodegradable
dish washing soap per pint of solution. Use soft, white facial
tissues and make short, gentle strokes. Change tissues of-
ten. CAUTION: Do not use scented or lotioned tissues or
damage could result to the optics. DO NOT use a commer-
cial photographic lens cleaner.
CHANGING THE VIEWFINDER BATTERY
If the viewfinder red dot does not illuminate, verify the view-
finder is on by rotating the knob below the viewfinder lens
clockwise. If the red dot does not illuminate, the battery may
need replacing. To replace the battery, press the left side of
the viewfinder housing labeled “push”. The battery compart-
ment will slide out on the right side of the viewfinder (see Fig.
E). Replace the battery with a Lithium CR-2032 battery with
the positive side up. Then push
the battery compartment back into the viewfinder and power
on.

A NOTE ABOUT THE TELESCOPE
The Meade 102mm refracting telescope uses lenses to
achieve focus and is designed primarily for night-sky view-
ing where image orientation is not important. However when
looking at daytime objects often image orientation is import-
ant. For day time terrestrial use, the refracting telescope will
present an image that is left-to-right reversed and words will
appear backwards. This is normal behavior for refracting tele-
scopes.
For those interested in correct image orientation, Meade sells
the #928 45° Erect-Image Diagonal Prism (1.25”) that will
orient the image correctly.
