Telescopes & Binoculars Binoculars User Manual

Transporting

When moving the binocular mount any significant distance, you

should remove the binocular to prevent them from being dam-

aged. To make moving easier, you may want to separate the

mount from the tripod. An optional carrying case (#15161) is also

available from Orion to make transportation easier.

Care and Maintenance

When using the mount in direct sunlight, be aware that its black

surface can become hot. If the mount is used in wet conditions,

dry it completely with a soft cloth after use. Clean the tripod and

mount with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.
