USE OF A TRIPOD ADAPTER:
Many binoculars can be mounted to a tripod using a standard binocular tripod
adapter. Your binocular may contain a thread that can accept a tripod adapter.
To expose this thread, look for a tripod socket cover (typically located between
the objective lens barrel of your binocular). Twist this cover counterclockwise to
remove it. Then attach the threaded portion of the adapter to your binocular,
twisting in a clockwise direction until tight. You may then attach the bottom of
the adapter to your tripod. Note: not all binoculars contain a tripod adapter.
CLEANING AND CARE:
Cleaning must be done safely and carefully to avoid scratching the lenses and permanently damaging your
binoculars. Safe cleaning can be accomplished by following the procedure below:
1. Blow away any dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush).
2. To remove dirt, grease, or fingerprints, clean with a microfiber cloth, rubbing in a circular motion. Use of a
coarse cloth may scratch the lens surface and eventually cause permanent damage.
3. For a more thorough cleaning, photographic type lens cleaning fluid may be used. Always apply the fluid to
the cleaning cloth, never directly to the lens. Do not use any abrasives, chemical cleaners, or solvents.
4. Never attempt to clean your binoculars internally or try to take them apart. This may cause the internal
optical components of your binoculars to become misaligned resulting in a double image when looking
through them.
5. Keep the lens cover (not included with some models) on the lenses when binoculars are not in use.
6. Non-waterproof models should not be exposed to excessive moisture.
Caution: Do not view the sun with this binocular. Viewing the sun can cause permanent eye damage.
