Bushnell Legend Ultra HD Compact Binocular F.A.Q.

How do I adjust the focus on my Bushnell Legend Ultra HD Compact Binoculars?

To adjust the focus, use the central focus wheel located between the two barrels of the binoculars. Start by focusing on a distant object using the central wheel, then close your right eye and adjust the left eyepiece until the image is sharp. Open your right eye, close your left eye, and adjust the right eyepiece to achieve a clear image.

What should I do if my binoculars are not producing a clear image?

Ensure that the lenses are clean and free from dust or smudges. Adjust the focus using the central focusing wheel and diopter adjustment. If the problem persists, check for any misalignment or damage to the binoculars and consider contacting Bushnell support for service.

How can I clean my Bushnell Legend Ultra HD Compact Binocular lenses properly?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a small amount of lens cleaner. Gently wipe the lenses in a circular motion. Avoid using rough materials or excessive pressure, as this can scratch the lenses. A lens brush or blower can be used to remove dust before cleaning.

What is the best way to store my binoculars when not in use?

Store the binoculars in a cool, dry place, ideally in their protective case. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures and humidity. Keep the binoculars away from direct sunlight to prevent damage to the optics.

Can I use my Bushnell Legend Ultra HD Compact Binoculars in the rain?

Yes, the binoculars are waterproof and can be used in the rain. However, it is advisable to dry them thoroughly after exposure to moisture to prevent any potential damage or mold growth over time.

How do I adjust the eyecups for viewing with glasses?

The Bushnell Legend Ultra HD binoculars feature twist-up eyecups. For users wearing glasses, twist the eyecups down to the lowest position to achieve the full field of view. Adjust to a comfortable height if you are not wearing glasses.

What should I do if the image through my binoculars is blurry on one side?

First, ensure that the diopter adjustment is correctly set for your eyes. If the issue persists, check for cleanliness and any damage on the lenses. If these are not the cause, there may be a misalignment issue, and you should contact Bushnell support.

Are there any specific maintenance tips to extend the life of my binoculars?

Regularly clean the lenses and body of the binoculars, store them properly in a protective case, and avoid dropping or exposing them to extreme conditions. Periodically check for any loose parts and tighten them if necessary.

How do I know if my binoculars are out of alignment?

If you experience double vision or if the images from each barrel do not merge into one, your binoculars may be out of alignment. This can be caused by impacts or manufacturing defects and should be addressed by professional servicing.

What is the best way to protect my binoculars during outdoor activities?

Use a neck strap or harness to secure the binoculars to prevent accidental drops. Keep them in a padded case when not in use and avoid exposing them to dust and moisture. Consider using lens caps for additional protection.
