Tasco 302012

Hi everyone,

I just recovered this telescope from my garage, it obviously hasn't been used for a long time. I'm not exactly an astronomy addict, but nevertheless I would like to get it working and dabble a bit in observation if possible. The only thing is, I have no idea how these lenses or eyepieces or whatever they're called work; the telescope itself appears to be fully setup but I dont know how to use these extra bits and pieces (it has a Telrad) Or how to collimate it - I don't even know if it is out of alignment or not. The manual has also been lost, so I was wondering if any kind soul here maybe had a copy...

P.S. First post!
