ter focus knob, turn until the object appears as sharp as pos-
sible.

Uncover the objective lens on the right side, then cover the
left objective lens and view the same object.
•
Turn the diopter adjustment ring to focus on the same dis-
tant object in the right side. (The diopter ring only adjusts the
right side.) If you can’t get the object into focus with the diop-
ter ring, go back to the left side and make sure it is correctly
focused with the center knob.
Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focus-
ing for any distance can now be done simply by turning the
center focus wheel. Make a note of the diopter setting for
your eyesight (line on the diopter dial that is lined up with
the index mark for future reference). You might even put a
small dot to reference where your setting is so if someone
borrows your binoculars you can quickly reset the diopter.
