Liebe Eltern,

This product is ideal for children wanting to explore their world in a completely new way. The device is as such, easy to use and care for, rugged and good-looking.

More important to you and of course to us is that it is safe to use. During manufacture, we made sure that this product is as safe it can be for children to use. Some residual risk is, however, unavoidable. This product, after all, is not a toy in the usual sense but rather an optical instrument that children can use to experiment, research and discover their world.

That's why we request your cooperation here. These operating instructions were written for children but please read them through together with your child or children and answer his/her/their questions. Don't

forget to explain possible risks. These are summarised under the heading „warnings“. Please adjust/set up the device together with your child or children and never allow any child to use any of our optical products unsupervised.

We hope all users and their parents will enjoy our products.

Fastening the scope on the tripod

Take the scope out of the packaging and pull out the tripod legs (11) as far as they con go. Place the tripod on an even and stable base (like a table).

Your scope has a normed tripod adaptor thread (5), which can be screwed precisely on the tripod adaptor thread screw (9) of the tripod.

Please tighten the fixing screw (10) beneath the tripod head.

Moving the scope together with the tripod

Unlock the vertical (up and down) and horizontal (left and right) axes (12) by turning the

panhandle (13) counter clockwise. Now you can move the tripod head with the fastened scope on both axes (up/down and left/right).

When you have reached the desired observing position, the scope can be locked by turning the panhandle (13) the other way as before (clockwise).

Controls

- Focus Wheel:

Look into the eyepiece (1) and rotate the focus wheel (3) in either direction to focus on an object. Keep turning the wheel until you can clearly see an image.

- Zoom:

Rotate the zoom control (2) to zoom in or out on an object; then use the focus knob (3) to refocus.

- Moving the main tube:

These spotting scopes have a main tube clamp (6) and fastening screw (7). Turn screw (7)

counter-clockwise to undo the main tube clamp. You can then turn the entire main tube (4) about its own axis and thus vary the eyepiece (1) position. To fasten the main tube in the desired position turn the fastening screw (7) clockwise.

- Indoor Viewing vs. Outdoor Viewing:

Although you may casually observe through an open or closed window, the best observing is always done outdoors. Temperature differences between indoor and outdoor air, and the low quality of window glass can blur images through the spotting scope.

- Sun shield:

Extend the sun shield (8) in strong sunshine affecting visibility. Put your

hand around the spotting scope aperture ring and simply push the shield out. But you should never look at or near the sun! To find out more read the warnings in this manuals.

Observing land objects

When viewing land objects, you will be observing through heat waves on the earth surface. You may have noticed these heat waves when driving down a highway with mom and dad during the summer. Heat waves cause a loss of image quality.

If heat waves interfere with your viewing, try focusing at low power to see a steadier, higher quality image. Observe in early morning hours, before the earth has built up too much internal heat.
