Bushnell Excursion EX Focus Lock, Waterproof/Fogproof, Eyecup Adjustment Fig, Tripod MOUNT* Fig

6.Make sure the center focus knob is pulled up, into the unlocked position-it should be able to rotate freely (Fig 3).

7.Using the center focus knob, focus on a distant object with fine detail (e.g., brick wall, tree branches, etc.), until it appears as sharp as possible.

8.Uncover the objective lens on the right side, then cover the left objective lens, and view the same object.

9.Rotate the diopter adjustment ring to focus the same distant object in the right side. Avoid over turning or forcing the diopter mechanism-if you are unable to bring the object into focus with the diopter adjustment, make sure the left side is still focused correctly with the center knob. The diopter adjustment only affects the right side.

10.Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focusing for any distance can now be done simply by turning the center focus wheel. Make a note of the diopter setting for your eyesight (line on the diopter dial that is lined up with the index mark) for future reference.

FOCUS LOCK

The Excursion EX also features a special focus lock feature. After focusing on a subject, the setting can be locked by simply pushing the knob in (down) (Fig.3). This is useful when you will be observing a subject at a consistent distance for an extended time period, to make sure you don’t accidently shift or bump the focus setting unintentionally, or when you want to pass the binoculars around in a group that is taking turns viewing the same subject.

WATERPROOF/FOGPROOF

Your Bushnell Excursion EX binocular has been designed and built utilizing the latest waterproof and fogproof technology. Excursion EX binoculars are O-ring sealed for complete moisture protection. Fogproof protection is achieved from dry nitrogen purging that removes all internal moisture.

EYECUP ADJUSTMENT: (Fig. 4)

Your Bushnell Excursion EX binocular is fitted with twist-up eyecups designed for your comfort and to exclude extraneous light. For users without eyeglasses, rotate 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 fully down position- this will bring your eyes closer to the binocular lens, allowing you to see the full field of view. To lower the eyecups from the full “up” position, rotate them clockwise. It is also possible to set the eyecups to a middle position “in between” fully up and fully down, which may suit some individuals better.

TRIPOD MOUNT*: (Fig. 5)

To attach the Excursion EX to a tripod or monopod, unscrew (counter-clockwise) the “B” logo cap which covers the threaded socket inside the center hinge (Fig. 5), and set it aside in

a safe place. Use a compatible binocular tripod adapter, such as the Bushnell model #161001CM, (an accessory bracket, shown below, which goes between the binocular and tripod) to attach your Excursion EX to any standard tripod in a horizontal position to provide a stable image during prolonged viewing.
