Thank you for purchasing your new Bushnell®
Spectator Sport®
binoculars.
This manual will help you optimize your viewing experience by explaining how to set up and use the binocular, and
how to care for it. Read the instructions carefully before using your binocular.
Eyecup Adjustment
Your Bushnell Spectator Sport
binocular features twist-up eyecups
(8x25 model has roll-
down eyecups)
that provide a comfortable view of the full image and help to exclude
extraneous light. For use without eyeglasses or sunglasses, twist the eyecups up,
rotating the eyecups counterclockwise until they are in the fully “up” position
(Fig. 1)
.
If you are wearing glasses, use the eyecups in the “down” position- this will bring your
eyes closer to the binocular’s ocular lenses, allowing you to see the full field of view. To
lower the eyecups from the full “up” position, rotate them clockwise
(Fig. 2)
. The eyecups
may also be set to a position midway between fully up and fully down, which may better
suit some users.
IPD (Interpupillary Distance) Adjustment
The spacing between the pupils of your eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” varies from
person to person. To match your binoculars to your IPD:
1. Point them at a white wall or blank area of the sky (away from the sun). Hold the
binoculars and view through them as you normally would.
2. Grasp each side of the binocular firmly. Move the left and right sides closer
together or farther apart
(Fig. 3, next page)
until you see a single image with no
shaded areas.
