Neckstrap Attachment
To securely attach your binocular to the binocular
strap:
1. Thread the end of the strap from the bottom up
through the strap attachment loop.
2. Hold the buckle and thread the end of the strap
inside the buckle.
3. Adjust the overall length and pull the strap
webbing tight so it is secure within the buckle.
Waterproof / Fogproof Models
ALPEN binoculars are designed and built utilizing
the latest waterproof and fogproof technology (this
will be noted on the product packaging). Water-
proof models are O-ring sealed for complete mo-
isture protection. Fogproof protection is achieved
from dry nitrogen purging that removes all internal
moisture.
Tripod Mounting
(tripod and tripod adapter not included)
To attach the binocular to a tripod or monopod,
unscrew (counter-clockwise) the cap which covers
the threaded socket at the far end of the center
hinge, and set it aside in a safe place. Use a compa-
tible binocular tripod adapter accessory to attach
your binocular to any standard tripod in a horizontal
position to provide a stable image during prolonged
viewing.
Care and Cleaning
Your binocular will provide years of trouble-free ser-
vice if it receives the normal care you would give any
fine optical instrument.
• Do not expose non-waterproof models to heavy
rain or other excessive moisture.
• If your binocular has roll-down, flexible eyecups, store
it with the eyecups up. This avoids excessive moisture.
• Avoid sharp impacts. Use the included neckstrap
to avoid accidentally dropping the binoculars to
