Adjust the Eyecups
The Adjustable Eyecup on the Solo®twists up and down
so any viewer can see the full field and enjoy comfortable
viewing – with or without eyeglasses. When not using
eyeglasses or sunglasses, it is recommended to keep the
eyecup fully extended. For best viewing when wearing
eyeglasses, twist eyecup down.
Adjust the Focus
To adjust the focus, rotate the Focus Wheel until the
subject comes crisply into view.
BASIC OPERATION
Cleaning
Your Solo
®
monocular requires very little routine maintenance
other than periodically cleaning the exterior lenses. The
exterior may be cleaned by wiping with a soft cloth. When
cleaning the lenses, be sure to use products that are
specifically designed for use on coated optical lenses.
• Be sure to blow away any dust or grit on the lenses prior to
wiping the surfaces.
• Using your breath, or a very small amount of water or pure
alcohol, can help remove stubborn dried water spots.
Lubrication
All monocular components are permanently lubricated,
so no additional lubricant should be applied.
Storage
If possible, avoid storing your monocular in direct
sunlight or any very hot location for long periods of time.
Note: Do not attempt to disassemble any monocular components.
Disassembling of the monocular may void warranty.
