Thank you for purchasing your new Bushnell Trophy XLT™ Spotting Scope.
This manual will help you optimize your viewing experience by explaining how to utilize the
scope’s controls and features, and how to care for it. Read the instructions carefully before using
your scope.
TRIPOD MOUNTING
After setting up your tripod on a stable, level surface, fasten the scope’s
mounting base to the screw on the tripod’s platform, so that the scope is
held securely in place. See “Using the Mini Tripod” if using the included tripod.
USING the ZOOM EYEPIECE and FOCUSING
Rotate the zoom ring on the eyepiece to change magnifying power from
low to high. Lower power settings will provide a brighter image with a
wider field of view; higher powers allow observing smaller details on more
distant subjects. To reduce the need to readjust focus when zooming, set
the zoom to its highest power and focus on your subject. When you zoom
back down to lower powers, it will stay in focus. Note: the zoom eyepiece is
not interchangeable. Do not attempt to remove it from the scope.
Eyecup Extended
USING the TWIST-UP EYECUP and SLIDING SUN SHADE
If you are not wearing glasses, twist the rubber eyecup counter-clockwise to
extend it. If you experience glare or lens flare due to the angle and direction
of the sun relative to the front lens, pull the sun shade out to extend it.

USING the MINI TRIPOD

•
•
•
•
Loosen the knob (A) at the base of the collapsible
tripod legs. Unfold the legs fully and set the tripod on a
stable, level surface such as a table or the ground.
Make sure the upper section of the tripod is level and
securely attached to the top plate (B) of the lower
section, by tightening the C-clamp bolt (C).
Turn the mounting screw knob (D) to attach the scope’s
mounting base securely to the tripod platform (E) (do
not overtighten).
Twist the pan/tilt handle (F) counter-clockwise to
loosen it, tilt the tripod head until the mounting
platform is level with the ground, then twist the handle
clockwise to tighten it.

•
To tilt the scope vertically, twist the pan/tilt handle
counter-clockwise to loosen it first, then tilt the tripod
head up or down. To pan the scope left or right, loosen
the pan lock knob first, then use the pan/tilt handle to rotate the tripod platform.
The top section of the mini tripod may also be used as a car window mount. Loosen the
C-clamp bolt (C), and remove the top section. Roll down your window partially, leaving
enough of it up to place the C-clamp on, with the bolt knob facing you. Tighten the knob to
secure the mount in place, being careful not to cause damage to the window (avoid using the
mount on windows with significant curvature).

After installing the mount on the window, attach the scope to the tripod platform with the
mounting screw (D). Loosen and adjust the pan/tilt handle to point the scope as needed,
then tighten it.
NOTE:use of the top section as a window mount is not recommended with the 20-60x65mm Trophy XLT scope due to its greater size and
weight, to avoid potential damage to your window and/or the scope.
CLEANING
The lenses of your Trophy XLT spotting scope are multi-coated for highest light transmission. As
with any multi-coated optics, special care must be taken in cleaning the lenses. Follow these steps
for proper lens cleaning:
•
•
Blow away any dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush).
To remove dirt or finger prints, clean with the supplied micro-fiber cloth rubbing in a circular
motion. Use of a coarse cloth or unnecessary rubbing may scratch the lens surface and
eventually cause permanent damage. The included washable microfiber cleaning cloth is
ideal for the routine cleaning of your optics. Simply breathe lightly on the lens to provide a
slight amount of moisture, then gently rub the lens with the microfiber cloth.
For a more thorough cleaning, photographic lens tissue and photographic-type lens cleaning
fluid or isopropyl alcohol may be used. Always apply the fluid to the cleaning cloth – never
directly on the lens.

GENERAL CARE and CAUTIONS
Never disassemble your spotting scope. Irreparable damage can result from unauthorized
service attempts, which also void the warranty.
