SPOTTING SCOPE INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Model# : 712060G 02-14

Congratulations on the purchase of your Bushnell®spotting scope,

a versatile high-performance spotting scope offering a wide range

of terrestrial viewing.

MOUNTING THE SCOPE AND SETTING UP THE TRIPOD

Remove the spotting scope from its case. Spread out the tripod

legs and place the tripod on a level surface. To extend the legs to

the desired height, open a leg lock lever, pull the leg section out,

then close the leg lever back down to lock the leg position. The

tripod will be more stable if you extend the upper sections of the

legs first, then use the lower leg sections as well if necessary. Once

all the leg sections are fully extended, if you need more height,

extend the center column as well. To do this, loosen the elevation

height lock, turn the elevation crank handle, then retighten the

height lock. Press the quick mount latch forward as far as it will go

and hold it open. Lift the quick mount plate to remove it out of

the mounting platform, then release the latch. Lift the wingnut

handle on the bottom of the quick mount plate so that it stands

straight out. Attach the quick mount plate bolt into the scope

using the wingnut handle to turn the bolt until it is secure, but do

not overtighten. Press the quick mount latch again and slide the

quick mount plate (with scope attached) onto the tripod. Let go of

the latch. If the latch does not close, reorient the plate until the

plate lies flat within the tripod base.

CHANGING MAGNIFICATION

Grasp and rotate the zoom ring located at the base of the

eyepiece to change the scope's magnifying power. When rotating

this ring, the image appears to zoom in and out. It may be

necessary to re-focus after the magnification has been changed.

FOCUSING

Rotate the focus knob located on the right side of the scope's

body, in front of the eyepiece. By turning this adjustment, the

image will sharpen until in focus.

SETUP and OPERATION

OPERATION, CARE and CAUTIONS

USING THE PAN ARM TO MOVE THE SCOPE

To pan the scope side to side or up and down, first loosen the side

and/or vertical lock. Then unlock the pan arm by rotating it

counterclockwise and use it to move the scope as desired. To lock

the scope in place, rotate the pan arm clockwise and tighten the

side/vertical locks.

USING THE EYECUP AND SUNSHADE

If you wear eyeglasses, fold down the rubber eyecup if you have

difficulty seeing the entire image. If the sun is at an angle to the

scope rather than behind you, glare may be a problem, causing

reduced image quality. If so, extend the sunshade out past the end

of the scope.

CARE

The optics of your spotting scope are treated with special anti-

reflective coatings for increased light transmission. As with any

coated optics, special care must be taken in cleaning the lenses.

Moisten the surface of the lens slightly and wipe dry using a

circular motion starting at the center of the lens. Wipe or brush off

any dirt or dust on the outside of the spotting scope.

CAUTION

Never disassemble your spotting scope. Special tools and

equipment are required for service and irreparable damage can

result from repair attempts by untrained persons. Unauthorized

service may also void the warranty.

CAUTION: DO NOT LOOK AT OR NEAR THE SUN

THROUGH THIS SPOTTING SCOPE, AS SEVERE

DAMAGE TO YOUR EYES MAY RESULT !
