GETTING STARTED
Before First Use
Prior to using your Spotting Scope, please read all safety and operating instructions
thoroughly. Please ensure you follow the steps below before using this product.
1. Unpack the product but keep all packaging materials until you have made sure your
new Spotting Scope is undamaged and in good working order.
2. Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and children so ensure all
packaging materials are kept out of their reach.
3. We recommend you keep the original packaging for storing your Spotting Scope when
not in use.
Setting up the Tripod
The Spotting Scope comes with a tripod which is easy to set up.
Follow the Instructions below for how to set up the tripod.
The tripod has 4 height adjustments; 3 leg height extensions and
the centre pole (vertical) extension.
1. To extend the legs, unclip the leg lock lever and pull the leg
extension out. Press the leg lock lever back into place to secure
the leg into position. Repeat for each leg until the tripod is at
the desired height.
2. To extend the centre pole, turn the vertical extension lock
(screw) anticlockwise until it loosens. Pull the centre pole up
to the desired height, then tighten the vertical extension lock
(screw) clockwise to secure the centre pole into position.
3. Spread the tripod legs (slide the tripod bracket down to the
base of the centre pole) and place the tripod onto a dry, stable
surface (Fig. 1).
NOTE: Always extend the upper leg extension sections rst. Only extend the lower leg
extensions when necessary.
NOTE: Once all the legs are fully extended, if you require more height, you can extend
the centre pole. Refer to the instructions above for how to extend the centre pole.
NOTE: Take care when moving! The tripod bracket does not clip into place and will move
up and down the centre pole when the tripod is lifted or moved.

NOTE: If you are on rocky or uneven terrain, adjust the tripod leg extensions to the
appropriate height to maintain a level position. Use the gradient leveller to check if the
tripod is level.
NOTE: You do not need to extend each leg section fully, once the leg is at the desired
length, press the leg lock lever back into place to secure the leg into position.
CAUTION: The gradient leveller is made of glass and is easily damaged. Take care when
handling the tripod. Do not drop the tripod. Do not place the tripod where it can fall, be
trodden on or damaged in any way.
Mounting the Spotting Scope to the Tripod
The high magnication of your Spotting Scope makes it
very difcult to see clearly through it when just holding
the Spotting Scope in your hand. For this reason, it is
recommended to mount the Spotting Scope onto the
tripod (supplied), whenever you are using it. Follow the
steps below for how to mount the Spotting Scope to
the tripod.
1. Remove your Spotting Scope from the carry case
(included).
2. Align the screw on the mounting plate with the
tripod mount located on the Spotting Scope
mounting head (Fig. 2). Holding the knob located
under the mounting plate with one hand, with the
other hand turn the Spotting Scope clockwise until
it is securely attached to the tripod.
3. The Spotting Scope should be positioned on the
tripod so that the gradient leveller is on the left
hand side (when the objective lens is facing away
from you and the eyepiece is closest to you) of the
Spotting Scope (Fig. 3).

Attaching the Smartphone Holder to the Spotting Scope
You can attach your smartphone to your Spotting Scope
using the smartphone holder (included). This is useful if
you wish to take a photo or record a video of your subject.
Follow the steps below for how to attach the smartphone
holder to the Spotting Scope.
1. Pull the adjustable (sprung) arm out and place your
phone in the smartphone holder so that it sits snugly
and securely. Tighten the screw on the right hand
side, by turning it in a clockwise direction, to secure
your smartphone in the holder (Fig. 4 and Fig. 5).
2. Loosen the screw on the ring of the smartphone
holder. First remove the protective cap from the
eyepiece. Then fold the eyecup (rubber edge) of the
eyepiece down (Fig. 6). Then place the ring over the
eyepiece on the Spotting Scope so that the ridge
on the ring is aligned with the top of the eyepiece.
Tighten the screw on the ring until the smartphone
holder is securely attached to the eyepiece (Fig. 7).
NOTE: Your Spotting Scope comes with a protective
cap that protects the eyepiece from dust and dirt
when not in use and during storage. Always remove
this protective cap before use simply by pulling it off
the top of the eyepiece.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove the rubber edge
from around the eyepiece! This will damage the rubber
edge and affect the use of the Spotting Scope.
3. To adjust the smartphone position, loosen the screw
located on the back of the smartphone holder.
Adjust your smart phone (slide up and down or
rotate sideways) until the phone lens is positioned
in a way where it displays the subject in question, on
your smartphone screen (Fig. 8). Tighten the screw
to secure your smartphone into position.
