Notes:
– The diopter ring rotates freely, i.e. it can
accidentally be rotated by more than 360°
with respect to the central focusing ring.
Depending on the latter's previous setting,
the combined system's focusing range can
be limited considerably by this. Therefore,
take care to turn the diopter ring only as
far as necessary for the eyesight adjust-
ment.
– For viewing on just the left or the right side,
the other eye should be kept closed or the
appropriate half of the binoculars simply
covered at the front on the lens.
Indications on the scale
As long as the two halves of the drive are cou-
pled together, the binoculars are permanently
adjusted to your eyesight, irrespective of the
focusing distance to an object. You need to
make the adjustment only once. If other peo-
ple use your binoculars, they may have to
alter the setting. Simply note your personal
setting on the scale; when someone else has
used them, you can reset the binoculars in a
matter of seconds.
The distance between two divisions on the
scale represents a difference of approx. one
diopter of correction being applied to the left
and right eye.
