BEFORE USE
4 IENGLISH
USING THE TABLETOP TRIPOD
Your spotting scope includes a tabletop tripod for
added stability when viewing. Follow the steps
below to set up the tripod.
1. Spread the three tripod legs until they come
to a stop.
2. Make sure the Pan/Tilt Handle is in the locked
position (turn clockwise) and the mounting
plate is level.
3. Place the bottom of the tripod on the top of
the mounting plate lining up the mounting
screw of the tripod and the mounting hole
on the spotting scope. Secure the spotting
scope to the tripod by turning the screw
counterclockwise.
4. The Pan/Tilt Handle controls the tripod’s
horizontal and vertical movement. To adjust
the spotting scope’s position, turn the handle
counterclockwise to unlock. Move the spotting
scope to the desired viewing position and turn
the handle clockwise to lock into place.
FOCUSING
To ensure a crisp, sharp image, the spotting
scope must be focused. To focus the spotting
scope, slowly rotate the focus wheel (located
behind the tripod mount) until the image in the
eyepiece is clear and sharp. If the focus wheel
will not rotate any further, you have reached the
end of its travel and need to turn the wheel in the
opposite direction.

ENGLISH I5
CHANGING THE MAGNIFICATION
To change the magnification of the zoom eyepiece,
simply rotate the eyepiece in a clockwise direction
to increase the magnification and counterclockwise
to decrease the magnification. When changing
magnification, the scope will need to be refocused.
The largest field of view and brightest images will
always be at the lowest magnification.
ROTATING TRIPOD MOUNT
LandScout spotting scopes feature a rotating
tripod mount that rotates a full 360° and allows
the eyepiece to be set in any viewing position.
To change the eyepiece position, loosen the lock
screw (located on the tripod mount) and turn the
scope to the desired position. Tighten the lock
screw and view through the eyepiece.

DIGISCOPING
POINT-AND-SHOOT PHOTOGRAPHY
LandScout spotting scopes can be used for
digiscoping with point-and-shoot digital cameras.
Please note that not all cameras are compatible
for digiscoping and with some cameras, vignetting
(a circular image surrounded by black) will occur.
Point-and-shoot cameras with an optical zoom
of 3x or 4x, tend to be the most compatible with
the least amount of vignetting. Most images will
be sharpest and brightest when using the lowest
magnification on the zoom eyepiece.
A variety of point-and-shoot cameras can be used
to digiscope with LandScout spotting scopes
utilizing the Universal Camera Adapter (#93626)
offered by Celestron. This adapter attaches to
the eyepiece and allows the camera lens to be
centered behind the eyepiece. Please note that
not all cameras are compatible with this adapter.
There is not enough adjustment to center the lens
behind the eyepiece when
the position of the lens is low in the camera
body or when the camera does not have
adequate height.

CARE AND STORAGE
Your Celestron spotting scope will provide you
years of dependable service if it is cared for and
stored properly.
1. Protect the spotting scope from impact and
do not force any of the moving parts beyond
their limits.
2. Protect the optics of your spotting scope by
putting on all lens caps when not in use.
3. Store your spotting scope in a cool, dry place
whenever possible.
4. When storing for an extended period of time,
place the spotting scope in a plastic bag or
airtight container with a desiccant.
5. Do not leave the spotting scope in a car on a
hot/sunny day or near anything that generates
heat as this may cause damage.
6. Clean any dust, dirt or water that may get on
the spotting scope or inside moving parts as
soon as possible to prevent any unforeseen
damage.
8 IENGLISH
CLEANING
Proper cleaning of the lenses is essential to
maintaining the optical integrity of your spotting
scope. Dirty lenses diminish the amount of light
transmitted through the spotting scope and your
overall viewing experience.
1. Remove any dust on the lenses with a soft lens
brush or can of pressurized air.
2. Remove any fingerprints, stains or smudges
from the lens surface with a soft, clean lens
cloth or lens tissue by rubbing in a circular
motion. Start in the middle of the lens and
work your way to the edges. Breathe lightly on
the lens to provide moisture if needed.
3. For a more thorough cleaning we recommend
the use of a lens/optics cleaning kit available
at most photo or optical shops. Follow the
directions supplied with the cleaning kit for
best results.
SERVICE AND REPAIR
If warranty problems arise or repairs are
necessary, contact the Celestron customer
service department if you live in the United States
or Canada. If you live outside of these countries,
please contact the dealer you purchased your
spotting scope from or the Celestron distributor
in your country. A list of our distributors can be
found on our website.
