Maintenance Tips
- Clean lenses gently: Use a microfiber cloth and lens-safe cleaner to maintain UHD clarity and protect premium coatings.
- Use lens covers: Keep objectives and eyepieces covered when not in use to prevent dust and scratches.
- Avoid touching glass: Fingerprints reduce brightness and image sharpness—handle by the body only.
- Maintain focus wheel: Remove dirt or grit to ensure smooth, precise focusing performance.
- Check hinge tension: Ensure interpupillary adjustment stays firm for stable viewing alignment.
- Dry after exposure: Even though waterproof and fogproof, wipe down after rain or humidity.
- Store properly: Keep in a cool, dry place using a protective case for long-term durability.
- Avoid impacts: Magnesium chassis is rugged, but minimizing drops preserves optical alignment.
