General instructions for
MINOX BN 7x50 and BN 7x50 C
Preparing your binoculars
The scope of delivery of your MINOX BN 7x50 C /
BN 7x50 includes a neoprene neck strap. We recom-
mend that you wear the neck strap whenever you are
using your MINOX binoculars.
Note: By wearing the strap you can avoid damage
caused by dropping the binoculars.
Attaching the neck strap
Thread the strap through the bracket (3) on the body
of the binoculars. Pull the end of the strap back to the
buckle and then thread it through the buckle from be-
hind to secure the strap. Fasten the neck strap on the
other side of the binoculars in the same way. Adjust
the neck strap to a comfortable length once your have
fastened it on both sides.

Attaching the eyepiece cap
Connect the eyepiece cap (11) to the neck strap via the
loop (12) on the left side. The eyepiece cap protects
the optics on the eyepieces against foreign particles,
rain, dust and sand. Remove the eyepiece cap from
the eyepiece when you want to use your binoculars.
This cap then hangs down out of the way on the left
side of the strap.
Objective lens cap
Use the objective lens cap (13) to protect the objective
lenses of the BN 7x50 against foreign particles, rain,
salt water, dust and sand. You can attach this lens cap
to your binoculars by placing the loop on the objective
lens cap bracket (14) over the cap screw of the tripod
thread (7) and threading it through until the loop is
completely inserted behind the tripod thread. Remove
the lens cap from the objective lens when you want
to use your binoculars and let it hang down. If you
want to remove the lens cap from your BN 7x50 C /
BN 7x50 completely, pull the loop of the lens cap
bracket carefully out from behind the tripod thread
and pull the loop off the cap screw of the tripod
thread (7).
