Aligning the eyecups, Viewing with and without glasses

When viewing without glasses, use the binoculars with the eyecups extended. To do this, turn the
eyecups (Fig. 4) to the left (anti-clockwise) and upwards to the top click stop position (Illustration A).
The eyecup can be locked in four positions - at the bottom and top and in two intermediate
positions. These adjustment options allow the distance of the eye from the exit pupil (to eyepiece)
to be varied according to the specific requirements of each user.
Note: If the eyecup is turned too far to the left when in the extended position, it can loosen. For
more information, see "Cleaning the eyecup". By turning to the right you get back to the various
click stop positions.
When viewing with glasses, turn the eyecup down to the right (clockwise) until it locks in the lowest
click stop position (Illustration B).

Cleaning and replacing the eyecups

To replace the eyecups or for cleaning, they can be completely screwed off of the binoculars. Turn
the eyecups out as shown in Fig. 4 to the top click stop position and turn one more thread in the
same direction until the eyecup is completely screwed out.
After cleaning, or replacing the eyecup, turn it to the right (clockwise) completely on the eyepiece.
(Also refer to setting for those who wear glasses). Using a slight jerk to the right the thread of the
6
eyepiece clicks into the lowest setting. Finally, you can again set your desired distance between the
eye and eyepiece using the click stops.
Attention: When the eyecups are screwed off there are five screws visible on the eyepiece. Please
do not open these screws. Doing so can void the warranty for your device.

Adjusting the interpupillary distance

Bend the two barrels toward each other around the central axis, until the distance of the two
eyepieces corresponds to the distance between your eyes. This will provide the optimum image
for your eyes. The optimum eye spacing is achieved when a circular image is seen when viewing
through the binoculars with both eyes.

Focusing

The binoculars have a focusing wheel (Fig. 1/4) and a diopter adjustment wheel (Fig. 1/3).
To adjust the diopter, close your right eye and focus the image in the left barrel using the centre
focusing wheel (Fig. 1/4). Then close your left eye and, if necessary, adjust the focus in the right
barrel using the diopter adjustment wheel (Fig. 1/3).
The diopter adjustment features a scale with the signs "+" and "–", and has an index point as a
reference point. Note your personal setting, then you can quickly set your own diopter setting on
any binoculars.
Note: Always use the same object to focus the image on both sides of the binoculars. To focus other
objects at varying distances, you then only need to use the focusing knob (Fig. 1/4).

Mounting the carrying strap and the protective covers

The carrying strap, the eyepiece cap and the protective lens cap are supplied with the binoculars.
Attach the carrying strap to the eyelets provided on the binoculars as shown in Fig. 2 + 3.
Note: Simply pass the carrying strap through the eyelets on the eyepiece cap. Before attaching the
carrying strap, as shown in Fig. 5, the strap length should be set to the desired length by shortening
or lengthening the strap. On the other side of the eyepiece cap follow the same sequence. The
eyepiece cap can also be put on only one side, if preferred.
The strap for the protective lens cap must be attached directly (either right or left) to the protective
lens cap. To fasten the strap of the protective lens cap on the binoculars, use the carrying strap or
one of the two eyelets for the carrying strap connection.

Use of the eyepiece cap

The eyepiece cap is stuck on the eyecups. You can maintain your desired eye to eyepiece distance
with this. Remove the cover before using the binoculars.

Mounting on a tripod

Binoculars from the ZEISS VICTORY HT series can be mounted on any commercial camera tripod
using the ZEISS Binofix universal tripod adapter.
