Mount the spotting scope on
a tripod.
Use the screw of the tripod

hole (1/4 screw hole) on the
bottom side of the scope’s
mounting plate.

Remove the cap in front of
the lens and extend the
lens hood.
Extending the lens hood
protects the lens against
rain drops. It also cuts out
excess sunrays, which
leads to a better effect
when looking through the
scope.
Rotate the cap on the
eyepiece to the left and
remove it. Be careful to not
use excessive force in order
to avoid removing the lens
itself.
2.
Locate the object and adjust
the spotting scope so that the
center of the scope is facing
the object. There is a sight line
on the lens hood which can be
used to get an approximate
idea when adjusting the scope
while looking for the object. It
is easier to see the object in
the field of view if the object is
aligned with the sight line.
While looking through the
eyepiece with one eye, turn
the coarse focusing ring on
the spotting scope body to
adjust the focus. For fine
tuning, turn the fine
focusing ring (next to the
coarse focusing ring) to
adjust the focus.
5.
The magnification can be
changed by turning the
zoom ring. When you have
changed the magnification,
turn the focusing ring again
to adjust the focus.
Adjust the eye point.
The eyepiece has a
twist-up aperture, which
should be extended for use
by non-glasses wearers. If
you are wearing glasses,
please do not extend the
eyepiece.
