Fastening the scope on the tripod
Take the scope out of the packaging and pull out the tripod
legs (11) as far as they can go. Place the tripod on an even,
stable base, like a table.
Your scope has a normed tripod adaptor thread (5), which
can be screwed onto the tripod adapter thread screw (9)
on the tripod. After attaching, tighten the fi xing screw (10)
beneath the tripod head.
Aligning the scope for viewing
Unlock the vertical and horizontal axes (12) by turning the
panning handle (13) anticlockwise.
Now you can move scope, attached to the tripod head, on
both axes (vertical and horizontal), for optimal positioning.
When you have reached the desired observing position, the
scope can be locked by turning the panning handle (13)
clockwise.

• Zoom:
Rotate the zoom control (2) to zoom in or out on an object;

• Moving the main tube:
This spotting scope has a main tube clamp (6) and fastening
screw (7). Turn the screw (7) anticlockwise to unfasten the
main tube clamp. You can then turn the entire main tube (4)
about its own axis to vary the eyepiece (1) position.
To fasten the main tube in the desired position, turn the fas-
tening screw (7) clockwise.
• Indoor versus outdoor:
Although you may casually observe through an open or
closed window, observing outdoors ensures optimal viewing
conditions. Temperature differences between indoor and
outdoor air and the low quality of window glass can blur im-
ages seen through the spotting scope.
• Sun shield:
out. But you should never look at or near the sun! To fi nd out
more, read the warnings in this manual.
Extend the sun shield (8) when strong sunshine af-
fects your visibility. Put your hand around the spot-
ting scope aperture ring and simply push the shield
