The Next Generation of FLP Spotter, Forged by Bushnell.
Built on the groundwork laid by Bushnell’s original Excursion® FLP spotting scopes, the new Legend T Series(Tactical Series) 15-45x 60mm FLP scope with mil-hash line reticle delivers exceptional eld performance, a bright, razor sharp image and a 100% waterproof design that excels in the most unforgiving conditions. The Folded Light Path (FLP) design provides the benets of a long focal length optical path in a relatively short, compact chassis. The ED Prime Extra Low Dispersion glass, fully multi-coated optics and premium BaK-4 prisms capture the moment with vivid clarity and contrast, even in low light conditions. Lenses are protected by the ultra-eective Rainguard® HD hydrophobic coating, for the clearest possible view in the face of foul weather or condensation from breath.
ED Prime Glass. ED Prime Extra­Low 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.
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.

TRIPOD MOUNTING
After setting up your tripod on rm ground, fasten the scope’s mounting base to the screw on the tripod’s platform by rotating the mounting bolt on the tripod, so that the scope is held securely in place (do not over tighten to avoid potentially damaging the scope).

FOCUSING
e Legend T Series FLP spotting scope with mil-hash reticle has two focus related controls. e rst is the diopter ring which allows you to adjust the sharpness of the reticle for your eyesight-especially convenient when not wearing glasses. is is a ne focus adjustment like the diopter ring typically located on one eyepiece of a binocular. e diopter can be preset before you begin actually using the scope. Aim the scope at a white wall or clear area of sky (away from the sun) and simply rotate the diopter ring until the mil hash reticle appears as sharp as possible. Note the position of the raised index ridge relative to the diopter index dial (+ / 0 / -) for future reference (especially if others will be using the scope).
e main focus control is located at the middle of the eyepiece, between the diopter ring and the zoom ring. Once the diopter has been set for your eyesight, it should normally be left alone-always use the main focus ring to bring your subject or target into focus.
USING THE ZOOM RING
Rotate the zoom ring to change magnifying power from low to high (15x to 45x on the power index dial). Lower power settings will provide a wider eld of view and brighter image, 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 temporarily (45x), then focus on your subject. When you zoom back down to lower power settings, the subject should remain in focus, or need only a slight readjustment. If both subject and reticle appear out of focus after zooming, refocusing on the subject using the main focus ring will normally bring the reticle into sharp focus as well. If not, only adjust the diopter ring after using the main focus. Never use the diopter ring to adjust the subject’s focus-just the reticle.
USING THE EYECUP
If you are not wearing glasses, twist the rubber eyecup counter-clockwise to extend it. Twist clockwise to retract. e eyepiece is normally left in the retracted position when the user wears eyeglasses.

WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF
Your Bushnell Legend T Series FLP 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:
First, blow away any loose dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush).
A good quality 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. To remove oily deposits or ngerprints, clean with the 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.
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. e zoom eyepiece is not removable/interchangeable.
Avoid sharp impacts. Set the scope down gently on hard surfaces.
Store your scope in a cool, dry place whenever possible.

NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN WITH YOUR SCOPE, AS IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR EYES !
USING THE MIL HASH TACTICAL RETICLE
e “mil-hash” reticle used in the Legend T Series FLP spotting scope is a hashmarked reticle that uses MRAD based subtension lines for ranging, holdover and windage corrections. 1 mil (milli-radian or MRAD) = 3.6 inches at 100 yards.
In order to facilitate accurate holdover and windage compensation, this reticle uses hash marks spaced in 1 mil increments with .5 mil graduations. It provides a total of 10 mils of holdover below the center dot on the vertical crosshair and a total of 10 mils of subtension lines on the horizontal crosshair. ere are also more precise subtensions of .2 mils on the last mil hash on both outer ends of the horizontal crosshair and on the bottom of the vertical crosshair.
Because the mil-hash reticle is positioned in the rst focal plane (FFP), reticle measurements can be used with the scope set at any magnication. When the zoom ring is used to vary the scope’s magnication, the relative size of the reticle will “track” right along with the zoom setting.

La nouvelle génération de lunette FLP, forgée par Bushnell.
Conçue sur les bases posées par les lunettes terrestres Excursion® FLP originelles de Bushnell, la nouvelle lunette Legend Série T(Série tactique) 15-45 x 60 mm FLP avec réticule Mil-Hash linéaire ore une performance exceptionnelle sur le terrain, une image lumineuse et très précise, ainsi qu’une conception 100 % étanche qui excelle dans les conditions les plus extrêmes. La conception FLP (Folded Light Path, parcours lumineux replié) ore les avantages d’un parcours optique à longue distance focale dans un châssis relativement court et compact. Le verre à dispersion très basse ED Prime, les lentilles traitées multi-couches toutes surfaces et les prismes de première qualité BaK-4 capturent l’instant avec une clarté et un contraste vifs, même à faible lumière. Les lentilles sont protégées par un revêtement Rainguard® HD ultra­ecace pour restituer l’image la plus claire possible en dépit du mauvais temps ou de la condensation de votre propre soue.
Verre de Qualité Supérieure ED à Très Faible Dispersion. Le Verre en uorine
de Qualité Supérieure ED à Très Faible Dispersion restitue une résolution et un contraste des couleurs étonnants, et élimine virtuellement les aberrations chromatiques et les franges de couleur pour faire ressortir le plus de détails possibles dans des conditions de faible luminosité.
Rainguard® HD. Ce revêtement breveté* permanent et hydrofuge fait que l’humidité de la pluie, de la neige, de la neige fondue ou de la condensation perle et disperse moins de lumière, vous avez donc une vue claire et lumineuse quand les autres optiques seraient devenus inutilisables.
