Preparing for use
Commissioning
Take the supplied tripod out of the box and pull the legs 9 apart. Place the stand on a firm, level surface. Locate the tripod mount 13 below the tube clamp 4. Place the tripod mount 13 on the tripod head 12 and secure the spotting scope by tightening the mounting screw 11.
Adjustments
- Moving the scope: Use the guiding handle 10 to move the scope vertically and horizontally. Turn clockwise to fix the position and counterclockwise to unlock.
- Focus: Use the focus control 3 to sharpen the image.
- Zoom: Rotate the zoom wheel 2 clockwise to zoom in and counterclockwise to zoom out. Readjust the focus after changing the zoom setting.
- Tube moving: Rotate the locking screw 14 counterclockwise to move the tube 5. Tighten clockwise to fix the position.
Using smartphone holder
Adjust the zoom setting before mounting the holder, as the zoom wheel 2 cannot be adjusted once the holder is attached. Mount the smartphone holder head 17 on the eyepiece 1 and tighten the screw 16 firmly. Place the smartphone in the clamps 18. Loosen the phone holder lock 20 slightly to adjust the position and angle on the adjustment bar 19 so the camera is aligned with the eyepiece. Tighten the lock 20. If using a phone with multiple cameras, set it to use only one rear camera.
Cleaning and care
Never take the product apart for cleaning. Use the provided cleaning cloth 22 or a soft, lint-free cloth. If lenses are very dirty, dampen the cloth with a little clear alcohol. Always cover lenses with the dust cap 7 and eyepiece cover 21 when not in use.
Storage
Remove the tripod and phone holder after each use. Store the spotting scope in the carry bag 15. Keep the tripod and phone holder stored separately to prevent scratching the scope body. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
