Properly focus the binocular

For the best views, follow this two-step process to properly adjust the 
center focus and diopter. Choose an object that is about 20 yards away 
from you and stay in the same spot until you have adjusted the binocular 
for your eyes.  

1. Adjust the center focus

—start by closing your 

right eye or covering the right objective lens with 
your hand. Focus your left eye on the object and 
adjust the center focus wheel until the image is in 
focus. Leave the center focus in this position as you 
adjust the diopter. 

 

2. Adjust the diopter

—start by closing your left 

eye or covering the left objective lens with your hand. Look through 
your right eye and adjust the diopter ring (found on the right eyepiece) 

until the object is in focus. Make note of 
this diopter setting in case you need to set it 
again. From this point on, you will only need 
to use the center focus wheel.

Adjust the reticle focus

When you hold the binocular, the reticle focus is on the left ocular. This 
focus is used to adjust the reticle image so that it is clear and sharp. 

Focusing the reticle is most easily done with the right eye closed while 
setting the focus. While looking at a white wall or the sky, adjust the reticle 
focus until you see a clear, sharp image.

Once set for a particular user, the 
reticle focus can be left in place.
