MOUNTING THE BINOCULARS ONTO A TRIPOD
•
During periods of extensive observation in a stationary position or at large magnifications (more than
16x), it is recommended to mount the binoculars onto a tripod. To mount them properly, please use
the tripod adapter.
•
Secure the adapter to the tripod.
•
Remove the protective screw from the 1/4” threaded socket in the base of the binoculars.
•
Now, screw in the adapter screw into the binoculars' 1/4” threaded socket. The binoculars are now
securely mounted.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•
Avoid lens contamination. When you are finished using your binoculars, put the objective and
eyepiece protective caps back.
•
Aim to keep the lenses free of any dirt accumulation, as much as the conditions allow. Before cleaning
the lenses, blow on them to remove sizable particles of sand and dust.
•
When wiping optical surfaces, please use the lens cloth which comes standard with the set. If a lens
cloth cannot be found, you can use any soft, clean fabric (soft cotton cloth, flannel, silk, or a cotton
swab are best).
•
Any grease should be removed with a tissue soaked in rubbing alcohol. In field conditions or if you
do not have rubbing alcohol, breathe right onto the surface of the lens and dry the condensation off
with a soft, clean cloth.
Attention!
In order to avoid damaging the lens' coatings, never use paper (dry or wet) to clean the lens nor
apply rubbing alcohol directly onto the lens.
