would be rendered useless.

ank you for purchasing your new Bushnell Legend Ultra•HD™ Spotting Scope.
is manual will help you optimize your viewing experience by explaining how to utilize the scope’s
controls and features, and how to care for it. Read the instructions carefully before using your scope.
TRIPOD MOUNTING
After setting up your tripod on firm ground, fasten
the scope mounting base to the screw on the tripod’s
platform, so that the scope is held securely in place.
e scope’s tripod mount collar allows you to easily
change the angle and position of the scope for more
comfortable viewing without having to use the
tripod’s adjustments-just loosen the knob on the
collar, rotate the scope and tighten the knob again.
FOCUSING
e Legend Ultra HD spotting scopes feature dual
focus knobs, which provide two dierent focusing
speeds. e back knob should be used rst when
focusing-it is the fast focus knob, and may be all
you need when viewing at lower power settings and
longer distances. After setting it, use the front, fine focus knob to more slowly refine the focus sharpness.
It is especially useful at higher powers and closer distances, where focus is more critical.

USING THE ZOOM EYEPIECE
Rotate the zoom ring on the eyepiece to change magnifying power from low to high. Lower power settings
will provide a brighter image with a wider eld of view, higher powers allow observing smaller details on
more distant subjects. To reduce the need to readjust focus when zooming, set the zoom to its highest
power and focus on your subject. When you zoom back down to lower powers, it will stay in focus.
Note: the zoom eyepiece is not removable, do not attempt to take it off of the scope.
USING THE EYECUP AND LENS SHADE
If you are not wearing glasses, twist the rubber eyecup counter-clockwise to extend it. If you experience
glare or lens are due to the angle and direction of the sun relative to the front lens, pull the lens shade
out to extend it.
USING THE SCOPE GLOVE (not included with 80mm models)
A scope glove is included with some smaller Legend Ultra HD scopes, to allow convenient handheld
viewing at low magnication settings (15-20x range). Pull the wide straps away from their velcro tabs and
place the glove on the scope, making sure the tripod mount goes through the opening at the bottom, then
put the straps back in place on the velcro tabs. Slip your hand through the side strap and use the buckle
to adjust the strap length so it holds the scope tightly against your hand.
NEVER LOOK DiRECtLY At tHE SUN WitHYOUR SCOPE
AS it MAY CAUSE SERiOUS DAMAGE tO YOUR EYES

WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF
Your Bushnell Legend Ultra HD spotting scope has been designed and built utilizing the latest waterproof
and fogproof technology. e scope is O-ring sealed for complete moisture protection. Fogproof
protection is achieved from dry nitrogen purging that removes all internal moisture.
CLEANING
e lenses of your spotting scope are coated for highest light transmission. As with any multicoated
optics, special care must be taken in cleaning the lenses. Follow these steps for proper lens cleaning:
•Blow away any dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush).
•To remove dirt or nger prints, clean with the supplied micro-ber 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, “microber”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.
•For a more thorough cleaning, photographic lens tissue and photographic-type lens cleaning uid
or isopropyl alcohol may be used. Always apply the uid to the cleaning cloth – never directly on
the lens.
GENERAL CARE AND CAUTIONS
•Never disassemble your spotting scope. Irreparable damage can result from unauthorized service
attempts, which also void the warranty.
•Avoid sharp impacts. Set the scope down gently on hard surfaces.
•Store your scope in a cool, dry place whenever possible.

USING THE COMPACT TRIPOD
(not included with 80mm models)
Unfold the legs fully and set the tripod on
a stable, level surface such as a table or the
ground. If additional height is needed, extend
the center column, following these steps:
•Loosen the center column locking collar
•Raise the center column to the desired
position
•Tighten the column locking collar
Twist the pan/tilt handle counter-clockwise to
loosenit, tiltthe tripodheaduntilthemounting
platform is in a level position (parallel to the
ground), then twist the handle clockwise to
tighten it. Turn the mounting screw to attach
the scope’s tripod mount securely to the tripod
platform (do not overtighten).
To tilt the scope vertically, twist the pan/tilt handle counter-clockwise to loosen it rst, then tilt the
tripod head up or down. To pan the scope left or right, loosen the pan lock knob first, then use the pan/
tilt handle to rotate the tripod head.

Nous vous remercions d’avoir acheté une nouvelle lunette terrestre Bushnell Legend Ultra•HD.
Ce manuel vous aidera à optimiser vos observations en expliquant comment utiliser les réglages et les caractéristiques
de votre lunette terrestre, et comment en prendre soin. Lisez ces instructions attentivement avant d’utiliser votre
lunette terrestre.
MONTAGE DU TRÉPIED
Après avoir monté votre trépied dans un endroit stable,
attachez le socle de montage de la lunette à la vis de la
platine du trépied de manière à maintenir la lunette
fermement en place. Le collier de montage du trépied de
la lunette vous permet de changer facilement l’angle et la
position de la lunette pour fournir plus de confort pendant
une observation sans que vous ayez à utiliser les réglages
du trépied – desserrez simplement le bouton du collier,
tournez la lunette et serrez de nouveau le bouton.
ISE AU POINT
Les lunettes terrestres Legend Ultra•HD ont comme
caractéristique deux molettes de mise au point, qui
fournissent deux vitesses diérentes de la mise au point.
La molette arrière devra être utilisée en premier lors de la
mise au point – c’est la molette de mise au point rapide et
peut-être le seul réglage dont vous aurez besoin dans les situations de faible grossissement et de distances plus longues.
Après l’avoir réglée, utilisez la molette de mise au point anée située en avant pour ajuster plus lentement la netteté de
