FOCUSING
The Legend T Series FLP spotting scope with mil-hash reticle has two focus related controls. The first is the diopter
ring which allows you to adjust the sharpness of the reticle for your eyesight-especially convenient when not wearing
glasses. This is a fine focus adjustment like the diopter ring typically located on one eyepiece of a binocular. The diopter
can be preset before you begin actually using the scope. Aim the scope at a white wall or clear area of sky (away from
the sun) and simply rotate the diopter ring until the mil hash reticle appears as sharp as possible. Note the position of
the raised index ridge relative to the diopter index dial (+ / 0 / -) for future reference (especially if others will be using
the scope).
The main focus control is located at the middle of the eyepiece, between the diopter ring and the zoom ring. Once the
diopter has been set for your eyesight, it should normally be left alone-always use the main focus ring to bring your
subject or target into focus.
USING THE ZOOM RING
Rotate the zoom ring to change magnifying power from low to high (15x to 45x on the power index dial). Lower power
settings will provide a wider field of view and brighter image, 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 temporarily
(45x), then focus on your subject. When you zoom back down to lower power settings, the subject should remain in
focus, or need only a slight readjustment. If both subject and reticle appear out of focus after zooming, refocusing on
the subject using the main focus ring will normally bring the reticle into sharp focus as well. If not, only adjust the
diopter ring after using the main focus. Never use the diopter ring to adjust the subject's focus-just the reticle.
USING THE EYECUP
If you are not wearing glasses, twist the rubber eyecup counter-clockwise to extend it. Twist clockwise to retract. The
eyepiece is normally left in the retracted position when the user wears eyeglasses.
