Tripod Mounting

Thank you for purchasing your new Bushnell Trophy XLT™ Spotting Scope.

This manual will help you optimize your viewing experience by explaining how to utilize the scope’s controls and features, and how to care for it. Read the instructions carefully before using your scope.

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” if using the included tripod.

USING the ZOOM EYEPIECE and FOCUSING

Rotate the zoom ring on the eyepiece to change magnifying power from low to high. Lower power settings will provide a brighter image with a wider field 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 and focus on your subject. When you zoom back down to lower powers, it will stay in focus. Note: the zoom eyepiece is not interchangeable. Do not attempt to remove it from the scope.

USING the TWIST-UP EYECUP and SLIDING SUN SHADE

If you are not wearing glasses, twist the rubber eyecup counter-clockwise to extend it. If you experience glare or lens flare due to the angle and direction of the sun relative to the front lens, pull the sun shade out to extend it.
