Preparing the binocular

Your MINOX binocular comes with a neck strap. We re-

commend you to install the neck strap and use it when

ever you’re using the binocular.

Note

Many accidents can be avoided by using the neck strap.

Attaching the neck strap

Thread the neck strap through the neck strap loop (3)

on the body of the binocular. Bring the end of the strap

back to the neck strap buckle.Thread the neck strap end

from the back, through the buckle. This will secure the

neck strap. Use the same procedure on the other side.

Adjust the length of the neck strap for the comfort of

the user.

The ocular lens cover or “rain guard” has a loop for the

neck strap to thread through one side. This cover pro-

tects the ocular lenses from debris and rain while the bi-

nocular is being carried by use of the neck strap. The

rain guard hangs down out of the way when the bino-

cular is being used.

Adjusting the binocular for use

Your binocular must be adjusted to the individual using

the binocular. The following procedures will assure ma-

ximum enjoyment and proper use.

Interpupillary Distance Adjustment

This adjustment uses the binoculars hinge pin to adjust

to the distance between the user’s eyes. With the pro-

per adjustment the user sees a round full circle, not two

circles. Move the barrels in or out until a round full circle

is seen through the unit. With this adjustment made, you

are now ready to focus the binocular.

Individual Eye Focus System

The MINOX BD 9.5 x 42 IF is equipped with the indi-

vidual eye focus system (1+5). Once you adjust the

binocular to your vision at approximately 75 yards, the

unit will be in focus without additional adjustment to

infinity. To focus the binocular, close your right eye and

look through the left barrel. Choose an adequate obser-

vation object. Turn the left ocular eyepiece right or left

until you see a sharp, clear image. Use the same proce-

dure for the right eye. Now your binocular is focused.

Both right and left ocular eyepieces have +/- diopter

markings. Remembering the setting or marking the di-

opter setting with a permanent marker makes refocu-

sing the unit easy if another person has used the

binocular and changed the settings.

Caution

Do not use the binoculars to look at the sun. This could

lead to eye injuries.

Note for spectacle wearers

To suit the requirements of spectacle wearers, the MINOX

binoculars are equipped with adjustable eyecups (2).

This allows the glasses wearer a better overall view.

Using the binoculars with and without eyeglasses

If you do not wear glasses, leave the eyecups in the

initial state.This places your eyes at the correct distance

from the eyepiece lens and ensures firm positioning of

the binoculars and reduces stray light from the side. If

you wear glasses, fold down the rubber eye cup. This

allows you to see the full field of view.

Other features

Tripod Adapter

To ensure blur-free viewing it is advisable to only use a

tripod at high magnifications.Your MINOX BD 9.5 x 42 IF

is designed to be used with a tripod or window mount.

To use this feature requires the use of a tripod adapter.

Tripod adapters are available from MINOX or your sport

optic dealer (order no. 69725). To install the tripod ad-

apter unscrew the knurled cap that is attached to the

center hinge pin (6). Under the cap is a 1/4 x 20 N.C.

treaded hole. Follow the instructions included with the

tripod adapter for proper installation.

Note

Severe damage to the binocular can occur if the tripod

collapses or is knocked over. It is recommended to re-

move the binocular from the tripod if the user is not wit-

hin arms reach of the tripod.

Ocular Lens Covers

Ocular lens covers are provided to protect the objective

lenses of your binocular. Keeping the lenses protected

when not in use reduces the amount of the dust or de-

bris that settles on the lenses.

Maintenance of your binocular

Your binocular is designed for years of trouble free use.

Following a few service recommendations will insure

years of service.

Binocular Case

A rugged binocular case is provided to protect your unit

when travelling and not in use.

Cleaning your Binocular

Keeping your binocular clean and dry will allow you ma-

ximum enjoyment and trouble free service. Remove dust

and debris with a soft brush or compressed air.

If your binocular is used at sea, or near a salt-water en-

vironment, it is strongly recommended that your rinse

the binocular in fresh water. This removes salt that may

damage your unit.

Lens Cleaning

Dust, salt and the oil left from fingerprint smudges im-

pairs your binoculars’ brightness and should never be

allowed to remain on the lenses because they can harm

the multi-coating applied to the lens surfaces.

Loose dust and debris should be removed by blowing

the debris off, using an optical lens cleaning bush or

compressed air. If fingerprints or smudges remain on the

lens, use optical lens tissue and lens cleaner solution to

clean the lenses. Follow the instructions on the lens

cleaning tissue and cleaner. Lens cleaning supplies are

available from sporting goods or all camera or optical

stores.

Note

Do not “over clean” lenses. Excessive cleaning can da-

mage the multi-coatings. Do not use household cleaners

on the lenses of the binocular.

Serial number

On the bottom of every pair of MINOX binoculars,

you will find an individual serial number. It is of great

importance to record this number in case of loss of your

binoculars.

Helpful tips for binocular users

•Never leave your binocular exposed to direct sunlight

for extended periods. This can cause damage to the

armor coatings or eyepieces.The dashboard of an au-

tomobile is not a proper storage location for your bi-

nocular; the sunlight is greatly magnified through the

windshield.

•Use the neck strap as your “insurance policy” against

dropping the binocular.

•Never walk away from a binocular on a tripod; remove

it if you are not within arm length of the tripod.

•Store your binocular in its case and in a cool, dry

location.

•Avoid severe temperature fluctuations. For example,

bringing it from an extremely cold condition in to a

heated environment could
