Adjusting Azimuth:

 

Moving the binocular in 

azimuth (left/right) is a simple matter of turning 
the mount on its pivot disk. There is no azimuth 
lock feature.  

 

Adjusting the Height of the Binocular:

 

A nice 

feature of the Paragon-Plus binocular mount is 
that when the binocular is pointed at an object, 
the height can be adjusted for different viewers 
without moving the binocular off its target. To do 
this, simply move the binocular so that only the 
parallelogram part of the mount is moving. Do 
not adjust the tilt angle of the binocular or move 
the mount on its pivot disk.
