See what this new Legend is made of.

e new generation of Bushnell’s Legend binoculars has
been redesigned with even higher-performance optics and
a lighter, tougher body design-no wonder we call them
“Ultra•HD.” For the ultimate in detailed resolution and
color delity, they’re engineered with high density ED
Prime Glass. e razor-sharp optics are fully multicoated­in fact, each lens is individually custom treated with our
new Ultra Wide Band Coating that optimizes brightness
and contrast. New Rainguard® HD forces moisture
to “bead up” tighter than ever, and even boosts light
transmission while ensuring foul weather or your own
breath will never cost you a view. We cut the weight by
adding a magnesium chassis. With class-leading eld of
view and extra-long eye relief, the latest chapter of the
Legend covers more country with less eort than ever
before.

ED Prime Glass. ED Prime Extra-Low
Dispersion uorite glass delivers
amazing color resolution and contrast,
and virtually eliminates chromatic
aberration and color-fringing to bring
out the most distinct details possible in
low-light conditions.

Ultra Wide Band Coating. An anti­reection coating process that is
customized for every lens element in
the optical path, in order to allow the
best possible light from the front glass
all the way back to the eyepiece. The
result? Optimum brightness and true
color across the light spectrum.

Rainguard® HD. This patented*,
permanent, water-repellent coating
causes moisture from rain, snow, sleet
or condensation to bead up and scatter
less light, so you get a clear, bright view
when other optics would be rendered
useless.

ank you for purchasing your new Bushnell Legend Ultra HD™ Binoculars.

is manual will help you optimize your viewing experience 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,”
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 rmly. Move the barrels closer
together or further apart (Fig. 1) until you see a single
circular eld. 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 Legend Ultra HD binocular has a diopter setting
feature which allows you to ne-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. e diopter adjustment ring is located directly below the right eyecup.
Make sure the diopter adjustment is set to “zero” (small vertical mark
on diopter ring is lined up with vertical index mark on right side of
binocular). (Fig. 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. Using the center focus knob (Fig. 3), focus on a distant object with ne
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. Rotate the diopter adjustment ring to bring the object into focus in the
right side of the binocular. 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
and that the center focus knob was not moved from its original setting.
e diopter adjustment only aects the right side.

7. Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focusing for any
distance can now be done simply by turning the center focus knob.
Make a note of the diopter setting you made (which small mark on the

diopter ring scale is opposite the vertical index mark on the
binocular) for future reference.

EYECUP ADJUSTMENT:

Your Bushnell Legend Ultra HD binocular is tted with twist­up 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. 4). 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 eld of view. To lower the
eyecups from the full “up” position, rotate them clockwise (Fig.

5). e eyecups may also be left at positions “in between” fully up
and fully down, which may suit some individuals better.

NECKSTRAP ATTACHMENT :

To attach the neckstrap:

1. read the narrow black section on one end of the strap
through the small lug on one side of the binocular (below
the eyepiece).

2. Loop the black part of the strap back into the plastic strap
buckle, threading it through the lower part of the buckle
(loosen and push the strap that’s already going through the
top part of the buckle out of the way rst, to make this easier
to do).

3. Repeat this process for the other side of the strap and
binocular.

4. Adjust the length of the strap so the binocular hangs around
your neck in a comfortable position (you may need to loosen
the strap slightly rst, so it pulls easily through the plastic strap
buckles-being careful that the binocular remains supported
so it cannot fall to the oor). Any excess length of black strap
that sticks out after making your nal adjustments can then
be secured in place by sliding the small plastic sleeves over it.

5. Be sure to check that the strap is securely fastened by tugging
on the binocular (keep a grip on it) while wearing the strap
around your neck before you start using your binoculars for
the rst time.

WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF

Your Bushnell Legend Ultra HD binocular has been designed and built utilizing the latest waterproof
and fogproof technology. e 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 Legend Ultra HD binocular will provide years of trouble-free service if it receives the
normal care you would give any ne 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 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“microber”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 microber cloth.

3. 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.

Voyez de quoi cette nouvelle Legend est faite.

La nouvelle génération des jumelles Bushnell Legend a été
reconçue avec une optique de plus haute performance et
une conception de corps plus léger et plus résistant-nous
appelons ceci “Ultra HD”. Pour le maximum de résolution
de détails et de délité des couleurs, ils ont conçus le Verre
de qualité supérieur ED à haute densité. Les optiques
pointus sont entièrement traités multi couches, chaque
lentille est individuellement traitée avec notre nouveau
revêtement à bande ultra large qui optimise le contraste
et la luminosité. Le nouveau Rainguard® HD provoque
un “perlement” de l’humidité plus serré que jamais, et
même augmente la transmission lumineuse assurant une
continuité de la vision qui pourrait être dégradée par le
mauvais temps ou même votre propre soue. Nous avons
allégé en ajoutant un châssis en magnésium. Avec un
champ de vision de première classe et un écart œil-anneau
oculaire extra longue, le dernier Legend couvre plus de
terrain avec moins d’eort que jamais auparavant.

Merci d’avoir fait l’acquisition des nouvelles jumelles Bushnell Legend Ultra HD™.

Ce manuel vous aidera à optimiser les performances de vos jumelles en vous indiquant comment les régler à
votre vue et comment en prendre soin. Lisez ces instructions attentivement avant d’utiliser vos jumelles.

REGLAGES DES YEUX

Comment ajuster l’écart entre vos deux yeux

La distance entre les deux yeux, également appelée “écart inter pupillaire”,
varie d’une personne à l’autre.

Pour que les yeux soient parfaitement en face des lentilles, suivez ces quelques
étapes très simples :

1. Tenez vos jumelles normalement, comme si vous regardiez au loin.

2. Tenez fermement chaque lunette. Rapprochez les lunettes ou éloignez­les l’une de l’autre (Fig.1) jusqu’à ce que vous puissiez voir un seul
champ circulaire. Remettre toujours vos jumelles sur cette position avant
de les utiliser.

Comment ajuster la dioptrie

La vue varie d’un individu à l’autre, c’est pourquoi vos jumelles Bushnell
Legend Ultra HD sont équipées d’un dispositif d’ajustement dioptrique qui
vous permettra de régler les jumelles à votre vue de manière précise. Suivre les
instructions concernant la mise au point situées sur la page suivante.

Fig. 1-Réglage de la
distance interpupillaire

MISE AU POINT

1. Régler l’écart inter pupillaire (Fig. 1) jusqu’à voir une image circulaire
unique.

2. La bague de réglage dioptrique est située juste en dessous l’œilleton droit.
Assurez-vous que le réglage dioptrique est déni sur « zéro » (le petit
repère vertical sur la bague de réglage dioptrique doit être aligné avec le
repère vertical sur le côté droit des jumelles)(Fig. 2). Gardez les deux yeux
ouverts pendant la durée du réglage.

3. En utilisant les caches lentilles xés ou votre main, couvrir la lentille de
focalisation (avant) sur le coté droit des jumelles en même temps que vous
regarder dans les œilletons.

4. En utilisant la molette centrale faire la mise au point (Fig. 3) sur un
objet lointain doté d’une multitude de détails (par exemple un mur de
briques, les branches d’un arbre, etc.) jusqu’à ce que celui-ci soit le plus
net possible sur le coté gauche.

5. Découvrir la lentille de focalisation sur le coté droit et couvrir la lentille
de focalisation gauche tout en continuant de visualiser le même objet.

6. Tourner la bague du réglage dioptrique pour mettre au point l’objet sur le
coté droit des jumelles. Eviter de trop tourner ou de forcer le mécanisme
dioptrique. Si vous êtes dans l’incapacité de mettre au point l’objet dans le
coté droit en réglant la bague dioptrique, assurez vous que le coté gauche
est toujours mis au point et que la molette de mise au point centrale
ne s’est pas déplacée de son réglage d’origine. L’ajustement dioptrique
n’aecte que le côté droit.
