ank you for purchasing your new Bushnell Inﬁnity™ binocular. is unique precision instrument combines the

ﬁnest optical materials, craftsmanship, and technology. In addition to Bushnell’s exclusive Rainguard® hydrophobic

lens coating, the new Inﬁnity features SHR Prism Coating Technology. SHR is a prism coating with super high

reﬂectance that provides a higher level of light transmission eﬃciency. e new Inﬁnity chassis is constructed with

reinforced polycarbonate composite materials for reduced weight without compromising strength. And, a full body

rubber coating adds even more durability to your Inﬁnity binocular.

is manual will help you optimize performance by explaining how you can adjust the binocular to your eyes, and

how to care for this instrument. Read the instructions carefully before using your binocular.

EYE ADJUSTMENTS

How to Adjust for Distance Between Your Eyes

e distance between the eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” or “IPD”, varies from person to person. To achieve

perfect alignment of lens to eyes, follow these simple steps.

1. Hold your binocular in the normal

viewing position.

2. Grasp each barrel ﬁrmly. Move the

barrels closer together or further apart (Fig. 1)

until you see a single circular ﬁeld.

Always re-set your binocular to this

position before using it.

How to Adjust for Individual Eye Strength

As individual eyesight varies from one person to another, your Bushnell Inﬁnity binocular has a diopter setting feature

which allows you to ﬁne-tune the binocular to your vision. Follow the focusing instructions on the next page.

FOCUSING

1. Adjust the interpupillary distance (Fig. 1) until you see a single circular image.

2. Keep both eyes open at all times.

3. Using the attached lens cap or your hand, cover the objective (front) lens on the right side of the binocular as

you look into the eyepieces.

4. Rotate the center focus knob, focusing on a distant object with ﬁne detail (e.g., brick wall, tree branches, etc)

until it appears as sharp as possible on the left side.

5. Uncover the objective lens on the right side, and cover the left objective lens while continuing to view the same

object.

6. Pull up the center focus knob to unlock the diopter adjustment (Fig. 2) and bring the object into equally sharp

focus in the right side of the binocular. e diopter adjustment provides ﬁne focus for the right eyepiece only.

7. Avoid over-turning or forcing the diopter mechanism. If you are unable to bring the object into focus in the

right side by adjusting the diopter ring, make sure the left side is still focused (return to step 3 if necessary).

8. Once the diopter adjustment is set for your eyesight, push the focus knob back down to lock it in place .

9. Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focusing for any distance can now be done simply by

turning the center focus knob.

EYECUP ADJUSTMENT: (Fig. 3 and 4)

Your Bushnell Inﬁnity binocular is ﬁtted with twist-up eyecups designed for your comfort and to exclude

extraneous light. For users without eyeglasses, twist the eyecups up, rotating the eyecups counter- clockwise until

they lock into the fully “up” position (ﬁg. 3). If you wear glasses, make sure the eyecups are in the down position-

this will bring your eyes closer to the binocular lens, allowing you to see the full ﬁeld of view. To lower the

eyecups from the full “up” position, rotate them clockwise while pushing down (ﬁg. 4). e eyecups may also be

left at positions “in between” fully up and fully down, which may suit some individuals better.

NECKSTRAP ATTACHMENT : (Fig. 5 and 6)

To attach the short strap adapter, ﬁrst align the strap with the plastic post positioned as shown in Fig. 5. Push the post

straight down onto the release button (white arrow), then slide it up towards the eyepiece (black arrow) as shown in Fig.

5, until it clicks into place. Make sure the release button pops back up. e long neckstrap may be looped through

the lugs on the short straps either before or after this procedure. To remove the strap, press the release button, and slide

the post back out of the socket (Fig. 6).

TRIPOD SOCKET : (Fig. 7)

To attach the Inﬁnity to a tripod or monopod, unscrew (counter-clockwise) the “B” logo cap which covers the threaded

socket inside the center hinge, and set it aside in a safe place. Use a compatible binocular tripod adapter, such as the

Bushnell model #161001, (an “L” shaped device which goes between the binocular and tripod) to attach it to any

standard tripod in a horizontal position to provide a stable image during prolonged viewing.

NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN WITH YOUR BINOCULAR

AS IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR EYES

WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF

Your Bushnell Inﬁnity binocular has been designed and built utilizing the latest waterproof and fogproof technology.

Inﬁnity binoculars are O-ring sealed for complete moisture protection. Fogproof protection is achieved from dry

nitrogen purging that removes all internal moisture.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CARE

Your Bushnell Inﬁnity binocular will provide years of trouble-free service if it receives the normal care you would give

any ﬁne optical instrument.

1. Avoid sharp impacts. Set the binocular down gently on hard surfaces.

2. Tug on the strap after attaching it to make sure it is securely fastened to the binocular before placing it around

your neck.

3. Store your binocular in a cool, dry place whenever possible.

CLEANING

1. Blow away any dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush).

2. To remove dirt or ﬁnger prints, clean with a soft cotton cloth rubbing in a circular motion. Use of a coarse

cloth or unnecessary rubbing may scratch the lens surface and eventually cause permanent damage. e

included, washable“microﬁber”cleaning cloth is ideal for the routine cleaning of your optics. Simply breathe

lightly on the lens to provide a slight amount of moisture, then gently rub the lens with the microﬁber cloth.

3. For a more thorough cleaning, photographic lens tissue and photographic-type lens cleaning ﬂuid or isopropyl

alcohol may be used. Always apply the ﬂuid to the cleaning cloth – never directly on the lens.
