The interpupillary distance, or the distance
between the pupils, varies from person to
person. The binocular must be correctly aligned
(adjusted) to the distance between your pupils
to achieve a single, clear image. To adjust this
distance, lift the binocular up to your eyes (using
both hands) and look through them at an object
in the distance. Move the two barrels (halves)
of the binocular closer together or further
apart until you see a single, clear image (Fig. 2).
Check that the interpupillary distance is set
correctly every time you use your binocular.

To ensure a crisp, sharp image the focusing
system of the binocular must be set to
compensate for any differences in your
eyesight. This is achieved by setting the
diopter (located on the right eyepiece) before
use. To set the binocular to your eyesight
follow the instructions below.
1. View an object in the distance through
the binocular.
2. Cover the right objective lens with your hand
or the objective lens cap.
3. Rotate the focus wheel until the image
viewed with your left eye is clear and sharp.
4. Cover the left objective lens with your hand
or objective lens cap.
5. Viewing the same object, adjust the diopter
ring until the image viewed with your right
eye is clear and sharp.
6. Your binocular is now adjusted to your eyes
and focusing on any object can now be
achieved by simply turning the focus wheel.

Model 71422
The Cavalry 7x50 utilizes an individual focus
system which requires you to focus each
eyepiece to ensure a crisp, sharp image. This
is achieved by setting the diopter (located on
each eyepiece) before use. Once the binocular
is adjusted to your eyesight at a distance of
approximately 100 yards, the binocular will be in
focus without additional adjustment to an infinite
distance (for distances closer than 100 yards
readjustment may be necessary). To set the
binocular to your eyesight follow the instructions
below.
1. View an object at a distance of 100 yards
or more through the binocular.
2. Cover the right objective lens with your hand
or the objective lens cap.
3. Rotate the left eyepiece until the image
viewed with your left eye is clear and sharp.
4. Cover the left objective lens with your hand
or objective lens cap.
5. Viewing the same object, rotate the right
eyepiece until the image viewed with your
right eye is clear and sharp.
6. Your binocular is now adjusted to your eyes
and refocusing is not necessary for objects
at 100 yards or more. Adjustment may be
needed for distances closer than 100 yards.

EYECUP ADJUSTMENT
The Cavalry models 71420 and 71424 feature
twist-up eyecups and models 71422, 71426
and 71215 feature foldable rubber eyecups to
accommodate both eyeglass and non-eyeglass
wearers. If you do not wear eyeglasses, leave
the rubber eyecups in the up position or twist
the eyecups counterclockwise until they reach
the up position. If you wear eyeglasses, make
sure that the eyecups are in the down position
to obtain the maximum field of view. The twistup eyecups can be set at positions between
fully up and down which may suit some users
better. When done observing, make sure the
rubber eyecups are in the up position for storage.
Model 71215
The focus of the Cavalry 8x42 monocular
is adjusted by simply turning the focus ring
located in front of the eyepiece.
Tip: Eyeglasses worn for nearsightedness should be worn when using a
binocular/monocular as you may not be able to obtain focus at infinity
without them.

TRIPOD ADAPTABILITY
The Cavalry binoculars feature built-in threads
that allow the binocular to be attached to a
tripod using a binocular tripod adapter. These
threads can be accessed by unscrewing the
logo plate found on the front of the hinge (Fig. 7).
To attach the binocular to a tripod, thread the
adapter into the binocular and attach the other
end of the adapter to a photographic tripod.
Mounting the binocular on a tripod allows for
added stability and comfort during prolonged
viewing.
WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF
The Cavalry Series is waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the housing from
fogging internally.
