Is that the model with a little eyepiece you look through? Its pretty easy; just look through the eyepiece and along the bottom you will see the compass reading; along the side is the elevation -- just turn your body to the correct azimuth then raise the unit up to the desired elevation of the satellite you want and align the crosshairs; if nothing is in the way then you have a clear site to the satellite.

As I understood i looked in the eyepiece for azimuth and then look for the elevation on side with eyepiece, one question on the side there are two numbers one the left and the other on right, which one i should go by.

Hmmm... then maybe your model has elevation on one side and azimuth on the other. The elevation side should be 0 to 90 and the azimuth should be 0 to 360.
