Hi,
Look, you can't, IMHO, not completely. You'll have to carry a collimation (not focus, but optical alignment, different) system of some sort to achieve best results. They are small, not expensive, and there is an immense amount of info here in IIS about it.
I liked collimating with a Barlowed laser. I found it sufficiently effective and quick once I got the hang of it.
There are other methods which have their adherents.
Cheers
