6. Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focusing for any distance can now be done simply by turning

the center focus knob. Make a note of your diopter setting (position of plus and minus marks on diopter ring relative

to index mark on binocular near the ring) for future reference in case the ring is moved accidentally or by another

person using your binocular.

NECKSTRAP ATTACHMENT

To attach the neckstrap, thread the ends of the neckstrap through the strap lug

(Fig. 5)

on each side of the binocular, then back through the plastic buckle on

the strap

(Fig. 6)

. Adjust the position of the binoculars on your chest as they hang

around your neck to your preference, by changing the length of the strap section

which passes through the strap channel and buckle by an equal amount on each

side. If you prefer to use an aftermarket strap that has metal O-rings, attach them

to a plastic zip tie placed on the strap lugs rather than installing them directly on

the lug, to avoid damaging the finish on the binocular via contact with the rings.

TRIPOD MOUNTING (select full size models only, not available on compact models)

To attach the binocular to a tripod or monopod (feature provided on some full size models),

unscrew or pull off (varies with model) the cap which covers the threaded (1/4-20UNC) socket

at the far end of the center hinge

(Fig. 7)

, and set it aside in a safe place. Use a compatible

binocular tripod adapter accessory (90

angle bracket), such as the Bushnell #161002CM, to

attach your full size binocular on any standard tripod in a horizontal position, to provide a stable

image during prolonged viewing, or when using high power models.

ANTI-REFLECTIVE LENS COATINGS (FULLY COATED/MULTI-COATED)

All models have lenses with a microthin layer of anti-reﬂ ective (AR) coating on every air-to-glass surface. Selected models

have multiple layers of these AR coatings on one or more surfaces (“multi-coated”), providing increased light transmission

for a brighter, clearer image. It’s important to take proper care of your binocular to avoid damage to these lens coatings

that could be caused by improper cleaning methods.
