Note: Due to the high magnification, a tripod and mounting adapter, or other suitable support, is useful for steadying target images during the setup process.

Your Bushnell Match Pro binocular is fitted with three position eyecups (Fig. 1) that provide a comfortable view of the full image and help to exclude extraneous light. For use without eyeglasses or sunglasses, twist up the eyecups (Fig. 2 & 3). This action will place your eyes farther from the binocular’s ocular lenses at the correct eye relief distance, allowing you to see the full field of view.

The spacing between the pupils of your eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” varies from person to person. To match your binoculars to your IPD or eye-to-eye width:

a. Point the binocular at a white wall or blank area of the sky. Hold the binoculars and view them as you normally would. Don’t worry about focus yet.

b. Grasp each side of the binocular firmly. Next, move the left and right sides closer or farther apart (Fig. 4) until you see a single image with no shaded areas.

a. Cover the left objective lens with the attached lens cap and observe a target image with fine details such as a distant sign or label with printed words. Use the Main Focus Knob to focus the image until the target image is sharp (ignore reticle sharpness).

b. Do not adjust the primary focus control during this step. Next, cover the right barrel and uncover the left. Unlock the image calibration diopter by pulling the ring towards the eyecup. Next, observe the same target image and calibrate the left-barrel focus by rotating the image calibration diopter in either direction. Lock the ring back into place when finished by pushing it toward the objective lens.
