Congratulations on your purchase of a Raptor
binocular. We know you’ll enjoy the excellent optical
performance that this binocular offers for all your
outdoor adventures.
Binoculars are not intended for looking at the sun, or any other
intense light source. Such viewing could damage the retina and
cornea of your eyes—even to the point of causing blindness.

The Raptor binocular comes with a rainguard
and two tethered objective lens covers. For
convenience, the rainguard can be attached to the
neckstrap where it is within easy reach. Simply slip
the neckstrap through the attachment point on the
rainguard before connecting the neckstrap to the
binocular.
The Lens Covers
A soft case provides protection for the Raptor and an
easy carry when the
binocular is not in
use. The carry strap
is already attached to
the case.

Attach the padded neckstrap to the binocular in
three simple steps. Begin with the right barrel of the
binocular and repeat the process for the left barrel.
The Neckstrap
1.Push a few inches of
the strap through the
neckstrap attachment
point on the binocular.
2.Loop the strap over
the attachment point,
then thread the strap
through the strap
buckle.
3.Secure the end of
the strap by slipping it
through the strap loop.
IPD
The eyecups on the Raptor binocular twist up and
down so any viewer can take advantage of the long eye
relief and enjoy comfortable, full-field viewing.
With eyeglasses or sunglasses,
retract the eyecups.
Without eyeglasses or sunglasses,
extend the eyecups.
Adjusting the Eyecups.
The twist-up eyecups are built on a solid frame and
covered with rubber.
Adjusting the Interpupillary Distance.
The interpupillary distance (IPD) is the distance
between the centers of the left and right eye pupils.
Match the IPD of your eyes
to that of the binocular by
rotating the binocular
barrels inward or outward
until you see a single image
that is free of shading.

Focusing the Binocular.
Choose an object that is about 20 yards away from you
and follow this two-step process to properly adjust
the focus. Be sure to stay in the same spot until you
have adjusted both the center focus and diopter.
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 dial.
Maintain the optical brilliance of the Raptor binocular
by keeping the lens surfaces free of dirt, oils, and dust.
Protect Lenses While Out in the Field.
Caring for the Lenses
Make use of the rainguard and tethered objective lens
covers to protect the lenses when not viewing. Store the
Raptor in its soft carry case.
Keep Lenses Clean.
Along with normal use comes the need to clean the
binocular lenses. Follow these guidelines for cleaning:
1.Remove any dust or grit from lenses before wiping.
Use a can of pressurized air or soft camel hair brush
(acrylic optical brushes also work well).
2.Clear lens of smudges, fingerprints, or eyelash oil.
Fog the lenses with your own breath and wipe with the
non-abrasive lens cloth included with the Raptor binocular.
Cleaning fluid and optical paper can also be used. However, you
should never use facial tissue, heavy cotton, or flannel clothing
on lenses—these materials can scratch the lens surfaces.
