Setting up the spotting scope
Ideally, the spotting scope should be mounted on the supplied tripod with the
quick release plate. Your spotting scope has a tripod connection thread according
to DIN standard (6) for this purpose. This allows the spotting scope to be mounted
on any tripod with a correspondingly standardized counter screw.
WARNING!
Never look through this device directly at or near the sun.
There is a RISK OF BLINDNESS!
Important:
Remove the protective caps from the tube and eyepiece. Be sure to replace the
protective caps on the lenses each time after using the spotting scope.
Operation
• Focus wheel: Look into the eyepiece (1) and turn the focus wheel (3) in either
direction to focus on an object.
• Zoom: Rotate the zoom wheel (2) to zoom in or out of an object. Then use the
focus wheel (3) to focus.
› Moving the tube: These spotting scopes have a tube clamp (6) with a
corresponding locking screw (7). Turn the locking screw (7) counterclockwise to
loosen the tube clamp. You can then rotate the entire tube (4) around its own
axis; this allows you to vary the position of the eyepiece (1). To x the tube in
the desired position again, tighten the locking screw clockwise.
• Indoor use and outdoor use: Even if you should occasionally observe objects
through an open or closed window, the best results are still achieved outside.
Temperature dierences between the indoor and outdoor air as well as the
low quality of window glass can cause images through the spotting scope to
become blurred.
• Sun shield: You can extend the sun shield (5) in poor visibility conditions
caused by strong sunshine. To do this, enclose the ring at the spotting scope
opening with your hand and turn it to the right while facing the observation
objective. On some models, the sun shield can also be extended by simply
sliding it.

Earth Observation
When viewing terrestrial objects, look through the heat waves that form over
the Earth's surface. You may have seen these heat waves shimmering across the
asphalt in the summer. Heat waves cause a loss of image quality.
If heat waves are aecting their vision, try focusing out a bit to get a smoother,
better quality image. Use the early morning hours for your observations, before
the earth's surface has heated up too much.
Cleaning and maintenance
Your spotting scope is a precision optical instrument built to provide a lifetime
of observing experience. (It will rarely, if ever, require repair or maintenance by
the manufacturer.) Follow this guideline to keep your spotting scope in the best
condition:
› Avoid cleaning the lenses of the spotting scope. A little dust on the surface of
the corrective lens will not result in any loss of image quality.
› If absolutely necessary, dust should be removed from the front lens very
carefully with a camel hair brush or blown away with an ear syringe (available
at most pharmacies).
› Fingerprints and organic materials on the front lens can be removed with a
solution of 3 parts distilled water and 1 part isopropyl alcohol. You can also
add 1 drop of biodegradable dishwashing liquid per half liter of solution. Use
soft, white face wipes and make short, gentle movements. Change the wipes
frequently.
ATTENTION: Do not use perfumed cloths or cloths with lotions.
These could damage the optics.
› Your spotting scope is rainwater protected: This means that it is suitable to
be used by a sportsman, a sailor or an occasional user in an environment where
the spotting scope may be exposed to water, e.g. rain, fog, splash water, etc. It
is designed to be resistant if accidentally exposed to water, but it is not suitable
for diving or extensive use in water. If your spotting scope is intentionally
submerged in water for a long period of time, you risk voiding your warranty.
Also note that although your spotting scope can be used near water, water on the
lens will cause distortion of the images. Wipe the water off the entire unit with a
soft cloth when you move away from the water again.
