Congratulations on the purchase of your new Bushnell binocular. The Excursion EX features fully
multi-coated optics and high performance BaK-4 prisms with a PC-3® phase coating to stretch
available light and produce images with the highest level of edge-to-edge clarity. Their wide field
of view lets you take in the entire scene with one look. This precision viewing system is contained
in a rugged yet lightweight, well balanced, double-bridge housing that’s nitrogen purged and fully
sealed against all forms of moisture, then wrapped in rubber armor.
This manual will help you optimize performance by explaining how to adjust the binocular for your
eyes, using features and accessories, and how to care for this fine optical instrument. Read the
instructions carefully before using your binocular.
EYE ADJUSTMENTS (Fig. 1)
How to Adjust for Distance Between Your Eyes
The distance between the eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” varies from person to person.
To achieve perfect alignment of lens to eyes, follow these simple steps:
• Hold your binocular in the normal viewing position.
• Grasp each barrel firmly. Move the barrels closer together or further apart until you
see a single circular field. Always re-set your binocular to this position before using it.
How to Adjust for Individual Eye Strength
As individual eyesight varies from one person to another, your Bushnell Excursion EX binocular
has a diopter setting feature which allows you to fine-tune the binocular to your vision.
Follow the focusing instructions below.
FOCUSING
1. Adjust the interpupillary distance (Fig. 1) until you see a single circular image.
2. The diopter adjustment ring is located on the right side, directly below the eyecup.
3. Make sure the diopter adjustment is set to “zero” to start (index dot on diopter
adjustment ring is lined up with index mark on right side of the binocular (Fig. 2).
4. Keep both eyes open at all times.
5. Using the lens cap or your hand, cover the objective (front) lens of the right side
of the binocular.
