I just purchased a B.L model 4000 telescope. I do not have the owners manual. It has the feature that allows you to program the unit so it stayes on a object by compansating the earths rotation. How do I go about prograing this feature?

You will not find a manual. This scope has been out of production for several DECADES!
The small wedge must be polar aligned in order to track the sky. The legs must be adjusted for your latitude.
It has a motor inside that rotates the scope to compensate for the motion of the sky once the scope is polar aligned.
