THE MOST RARE AND REMARKABLE
SPECIES ARE ALSO THOSE MOST
SPECIFICALLY ADAPTED TO THEIR
ENVIRONMENT.
Conversely, to see them all, you and your optics
have to be remarkably versatile. Our NatureView
spotting scopes thrive in virtually any setting,
offering bright, crisp views of your quarry near and
far. Fully multi-coated optics and premium lead free
glass help you catalog every detail. A compact
tripod with integrated car window mount and both
soft and hard carrying cases are included. They’re
a natural selection for wherever your next field trip
takes you.
®
Enviro-Friendly. All NatureView
spotting scopes feature lead free
glass.
High Quality Optics. BaK-4
prisms and fully multi-coated
optics work together to deliver
ultra-bright, razor-sharp images.
Durable. Rugged, non-slip rubber
armor absorbs shock. NatureView
spotting scopes are waterproof
and nitrogen purged (fogproof)
for clear, reliable viewing in all
weather conditions.

TRIPOD MOUNTING
After setting up your tripod on a stable, level surface, fasten the scope’s mounting base to the screw on the
tripod’s platform, so that the scope is held securely in place (see “Using the Mini Tripod” on the next page if you
are using the included tripod). The scope has a rotating tripod mounting collar. Loosen the tripod collar knob,
then twist the scope to the desired position (for example, you may prefer to position the focus knob o to one
side instead of on top), then tighten the knob back clockwise to secure the scope in place.
USING the ZOOM EYEPIECE and FOCUSING
Remove the tethered objective lens cap before viewing by pulling the tab at the top of the cap out and
letting the cap hang down. While looking through the scope, rotate the zoom ring on the eyepiece to adjust
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 (45x or 60x depending on your model) and focus on
your subject. When you zoom back down a lower power, it will stay in focus. If you don’t wear eyeglasses, twist
the eyecup at the end of the eyepiece counter-clockwise until the eyecup is in a position which allows you to
view the full image. To retract the eyecup back down, twist it in a clockwise direction. Note: the NatureView
scope’s zoom eyepiece is not interchangeable. Do not attempt to remove it from the scope.
WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF
Your Bushnell NatureView spotting scope has been designed and built utilizing the latest waterproof and
fogproof technology. The scope is O-ring sealed for complete moisture protection. Fogproof protection is
achieved from dry nitrogen purging that removes all internal air which can retain moisture.

USING the MINI TRIPOD
• Unfold the legs fully and set the tripod on a
stable, level surface such as a table or the ground.
• Attach the scope by lining up the screw at the
top of the tripod with the 1/4”-20 socket on the
bottom of the scope’s tripod mounting base,
then turning the mounting knob on the tripod
until the scope is securely attached to the tripod
(do not overtighten).
• To tilt or rotate (pan) the spotting scope, twist the
pan handle counter-clockwise, move the scope
to the desired position, then tighten the pan
handle (clockwise) to hold it in place.
• To adjust the tripod height, loosen the height
lock collar, move the center column up or down,
then tighten the lock collar.
• To remove the car window mount section of the
tripod for separate use, loosen the large clamp
bolt fully and pull the top section o of the plate
at the top of the center column.
• When using the car window mount, roll your
window down part way and place the padded
clamp of the mount onto it, then carefully
tighten the clamp bolt (do not overtighten!).
Finally, attach the scope to the mounting screw.

USING the SLIDING SUN SHADE
If you experience glare or lens are due to the angle and direction of the sun relative to the front lens, pull the
sun shade forwards to extend it. Push straight back on the sun shade to collapse it for storage.
CLEANING
The lenses of your NatureView spotting scope are fully multi-coated for highest light transmission. As with
any multi-coated 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. A 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
microber 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.
NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN WITH YOUR SCOPE
AS IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR EYES
