User Instructions
Monoculars can open up a whole range of new and exciting impressions when travelling on
holiday, taken to sporting and leisure events or used as part of a hobby such as bird or butterfly
watching. To help you get the best results from your equipment please read the following
instructions carefully.
Focusing. To focus at different distances simply rotate the focusing band until a clear and sharp
image is obtained.
Adjustable Lanyard. Packed separately with each monocular the lanyard is fitted by clipping onto
the lug on the body of the monocular.
Rubber Eyecups are designed to position your eyes correctly to get the maximum comfortable field
of view with or without glasses.
Using glasses. To maximise field of view with glasses on, fold the rubber eyecup to the ‘down’
position - remembering to fold it back up if you or anybody else wants to use the instrument
without glasses.
Close Focus Scale. The body of the Gallery Scope has a printed scale to help with macro focusing.
Compact Microscope. The Gallery Scope can be converted to a compact microscope by
connecting the 30259 Microstand with LED illuminator (Available to purchase separately). This
useful accessory multiplies basic monocular magnification by a factor of 3.
Care and cleaning. Monoculars require little maintenance but occasionally the outside surfaces of
the eyepieces and objective lenses will need cleaning. To avoid damaging these surfaces please
read the following instructions carefully.
(i) Gently remove excess dirt and dust using compressed air or blower brush.
Caution: Hard and persistent rubbing of dirty surfaces can cause abrasive scratches on the
surface of the glass which may distort viewing.
(ii) Breathe on exposed glass surface and then wipe with an optical cleaning cloth (code 30277) in
a circular motion until the surface is clean again.
Do not attempt to dismantle the instrument as this will invalidate the guarantee.
Cold weather. In cold weather, equipment not hermetically sealed and filled with nitrogen may
steam up due to heat transfer from the hands through the casing to the cold air trapped inside. Try
to avoid this by using gloves and leaving the instrument to stand when transferring from a cool to
a warm environment.
WARNING. Never under any circumstances use this monocular to view the Sun. Doing so will
cause serious damage to your eyes.
We hope you will get a great deal of pleasure from your new Gallery Scope. If you have any
problems or damage it in any way our Service Department is on hand to help you.
