Setting up the spotting scope
Ideally the spotting scope should be on a tripod of suitable load-
bearing capacity (obtainable as a Bresser accessory). Your spotting
scope has a tripod thread to DIN standard (5). It can therefore be
attached to any tripod with a DIN standard thread.
Important:
Remove the protective caps from the main tube and eyepiece. Make
sure they are reinserted after every use.
Controls
• Focus wheel: Look into the eyepiece (1) and rotate the focus
wheel (3) in either direction to focus on an object. To finely
adjust focussing use the smaller wheel (4).

• Zoom: Rotate the zoom control (2) to zoom in or out on an
object; then use the focus wheel (3) to refine the focus. To finely
adjust focussing use the smaller wheel (4).
• Moving the main tube: These spotting scopes have a main
tube clamp (6) and fastening screw (7). Turn screw (7) counter-
clockwise to undo the main tube clamp. You can then turn
the entire main tube (4) about its own axis and thus vary the
eyepiece (1) position. To fasten the main tube in the desired
position turn the fastening screw clockwise.
• Indoor Viewing vs. Outdoor Viewing: Although you may casu-
ally observe through an open or closed window, the best observ-
ing is always done outdoors. Temperature differences between
inside and outside air, and the low quality of window glass can
blur images through the spotting scope.
• Sun shield: Extend the sun shield (9) in strong sunshine affect-
ing visibility. Put your hand around the spotting scope aperture
ring and simply push the shield out.
Terrestrial Observing
When viewing land objects, you will be observing through heat waves
on the earth surface. You may have noticed these heat waves while
driving down a highway during the summer. Heat waves cause a loss
of image quality.
