Smile Help Please - never used a telescope before!!

Hi All

I have just been given a telescope as I have moved out to the country and it was thought I would be able to get some good use out of it.

It is a Bushmaster StarExplorer SE114900. Unfortunately the instruction manual is missing, and the people who gave to me have never used it, so couldn't advise me how it works.

I have never used a telescope before at all. Any information on how to use it and set it up would be greatly appreciated.

I live in Gisborne, Victoria and there have been some really clear nights and I think it would be great to be able to "have a go" at a bit of amateur astronomy....even if I don't know what to look for!

Any suggestions or assistance would be great.

Thank you.
