I recently purchased a Bausch & Lomb Harbormaster Tellescope and when it arrived the viewing field was block when looking through the aperture. I ssupect one of the internal lenses was dislodged in shipment. Can it be fixed and if so how?

The front lens is multi-coated on PURPOSE! You do not want a telescope with an uncoated main lens. This coating increases light throughput --

This is considered a toy telescope. Sorry. No manuals exist and you will not get any support at all on this brand.

Sorry. Next time you need to buy a real telescope. Something like this:

Here is a site with some scopes, one of which is hopefully your model. They also have specs on the different models:

Good luck, and hope this helps.

It's very doubtful that it can be fixed economically with a bent tube. You can try contacting Bushnell at this web site:

but I doubt that they can help you.
