My thoughts are to look through the eyepiece like a 25mm and find the moon (but that is coming up late 3am). You could even look at the moon during the daytime but as long as it is not near the Sun. You may have to manually move the scope with hands to find it and that will then allow you to align the finderscope on the moon. In fact you should be able to get a crater fairly central and then align the finderscope on the crater. Even if the moon is out of focus you should be able to find it. Once scope and finderscope are aligned go to Jupiter and do the fine tuning of the alignment of the scope and finderscope. If you can not see anything phone the people you bought it from and seek their advice. Good luck.
