EyE adjUStMEntS

How to adjust for dis­tance between your
eyes:

The distance between
the eyes, called “inter­pupillary distance,”
varies fr o m person to
person.

To achieve perfect alignment of lens to eye, follow
these simple steps:

1. Hold your binoculars in the normal viewing
position.

2. Grasp each barrel firmly. Move the barrels
closer together or farther apart until you see a
single circular field. Always reset your binoculars
to this position before using.

FOCUSInG

Focus the binocular for
o ne ey e at a t i me b y t u rn ­i n g t h e o c u la r (e y ep i e c e)
until you see an equally
sharp image with each
eye. If more then one
person will be using the
binoculars, you should
mark the lef t and right eyepieces for your own
vision to permit quick readjustment.

rOLL-dOWn EyECUpS

Your binoculars fitted
wit h ru b be r ey e c u ps
de s ig ne d to exc lu de
extraneous light. If you
wear eye g lasses, you
may be able to roll-down
the eyecups. For eye­glass wearers, lowering
or rolling down the eyecups will bring your eyes
closer to the binocular lenses, thus providing an
improve d fi e l d of view.

ranGEFIndEr rEtICLE

7x50RF has a built-in step rangefinder with a mils
scale for d i stance, angle and height detection.

DISTAN C E

If the height of a
vi ew ed o b j e c t is
known, use the fol­lowing equation
substituting height
of object for vari­able H:

L = H/MILS x 1000

ANGLE

To calculate the
included angle of a
viewe d o b j ect, use the fo llowing fo r mula:

x° = 0.06 x MILS

HEIGHT

If the distance to a viewed object is known, use
the following equation substituting distance to
object for variable L:

H = L x MILS /1000

2M TARGET BASED SCALE

A 2m target fits between the numbered baseline
and the main horizontal line. If the 2m target fits
between the 4 and the right horizontal post of the
main line the target is 400 m away. If the same
tar g et fi t s be t we e n the 7 a nd t h e ri g ht po st of m ain
line the arget is 700 m away.

CarE and CLEanInG

By following these simple guidelines, your
binocular will provide optimal performance for
many years:

1. Keep binocular lenses clean and free of
moisture and dirt.

2. W h en n ot i n us e , do n ot ex po se yo ur bi no cu ­lars to direct sunlight for long periods of time
(e.g. on the da s hboard of your ve h i cle) .

3. Store your binocular in a cool, dry place.
Always store your binocular in its carrying
case, with the rubber roll-down eyecups in the
“up” position.

4. Binoculars are precision instruments ­handle them with care. Do not drop, shake,
bump or rat tle your binocular. Its precision
optics can become misaligned (out of collima­tion) as a result of rough treatment, which can
render the instrument virtually unusable.

Collimation problems usually require repair by
a tr ai ne d te ch ni ci an , an d ar e g e ne ra ll y no t c o v­ered by t h e Warrant y.

To clean your binocular, follow these simple
steps:

1. Before attempting to clean any of the lenses,
carefully remove all grit, sand, dirt, dust, or
other substances which may scratch the sur­face of the optics. Avoid touching lens surfaces
with fingers or coarse materials. Use a soft lens
brush, lens cleaning tissue, a lint-free cotton
cloth, a clean cot t o n swab, or “cann e d” air.

2. For materials that remain on the lenses, use
a liquid substance designed to remove grease
(e.g., commercial lens cleaner, household
window cleaner or rubbing alcohol).

CAUTION: Do not apply liquid directly onto a
len s, w hi ch m ay re sul t in t he l iq ui d se ep in g int o
the barrel of the binocular. Apply the solution
onto a c loth or swa b, and use th e c loth or swa b
to remove the foreign substance with circular
motions. Take care as to not rub away antire­flectant lens c o at ings. Use a light touch.

If a 2m target fits
between these two
lines then the target
is 4 0 0m aw ay.

If a 2m target fits
between these two
lines then the target is
70 0m a way.
