APPLICATION

ATN is proud to introduce its professional brand of daytime binoculars:

the Omega line. Years of manufacturing German quality glass for our

Night Vision equipment have allowed us to produce a binocular line

with exceptional quality at a reasonable price.

The Omega binoculars are technologically advanced with special

coated optics, nitrogen filled, durable rubber armour, and either a built-

in range finder or a built-in compass. These binoculars are tough, pro-

vide a crystal clear image, and are of the highest quality.

Each model is durable enough to withstand the harshest conditions

and is designed to perform under the most stressful situations. This is

* ATN reserves the right to change the above specifications at any time without notice

guaranteed by the lifetime manufacturer’s defect warranty on all of the

models in the Omega line.

ATN’s 10x42RF daytime Omega class binoculars are the quintessential

professional binoculars. They provide a sharp stable image with excel-

lent low-light performance.

Features multi-coated optics for superior light transmission, individual

diopter focus for clearer images, built-in range finder reticle and full

rubber armouring for increased shock resistance.

The combination of waterproof and high quality optics make it the per-

fect binocular for military, law enforcement, boating as well as for most

hunting uses.

Meets standards and requirements of MIL-STD810 for a lifetime of high

performance.

PREPARING THE BINOCULAR

Your ATN OMEGA Series binocular comes with a neck strap. We rec-

ommend that you install the neck strap and use it whenever you are

using the binocular.

NOTE: Many accidents can be avoided by using the neck strap.

ATTACHING THE NECK STRAP

Thread the neck strap through the neck strap loop on the body of the

binocular.

Bring the end of the strap back to the neck strap buckle. Thread the

neck strap end from the back, through the buckle, as shown in the illus-

tration. This will secure the neck strap. Using the same procedure on

the other side, adjust the length of the neck strap for the comfort of the

user.

OCULAR LENS COVER

The ocular lens cover or “rain guard” has a loop for the neck strap to

thread through one side. This cover protects the ocular lenses from

debris and rain while the binocular is being carried by use of the neck

strap. The rain guard hangs down out of the way when the binocular is

being used.

ADJUSTING THE BINOCULAR FOR USE

All binoculars must be adjusted to the individual using the binocular.

The following procedures will assure maximum enjoyment and proper

use.

INTERPUPILLARY DISTANCE ADJUSTMENT

This adjustment uses the binoculars’ hinge pin to adjust to the distance

between the user’s eyes. With the proper adjustment, the user sees a

round full circle, not two circles. Move the barrels in or out until a round

full circle is seen through the unit. With this adjustment made, you are

now ready to focus the binocular.

INDIVIDUAL EYE FOCUS SYSTEM

The OMEGA Series binoculars are equipped with the individual eye

focus system. This is the focus system preferred by military units around

the world. Once you adjust the binocular to your vision at approximately

100 yards, the unit will be in focus without additional adjustment to an

infinite distance.

To focus the binocular, close your right eye and look through the left

barrel. Turn the left ocular eyepiece to the right or left until you see a

sharp, clear image. Use the same procedure for the right eye. Now your

binocular is focused.

Both right and lef t ocular eyepieces have + / - diopter markings. Remem-

bering the setting or marking the diopter setting with a permanent

marker makes refocusing the unit easy if another person has used the

binocular and changed the settings.

TRIPOD ADAPTER

Your OMEGA Series binocular is designed to be used with a tripod

adapter for mounting the unit on a tripod or window mount. To use this

feature requires the use of a ATN tripod adapter. To install the tripod

adapter, unscrew the knurled cap that is centered on the hinge pin.

Under the cap is a 1/4x20 N.C. threaded hole. Follow the instructions

included with the tripod adapter for proper installation. Tripod adapters

are available from ATN or your sport optic dealer.

NOTE: Severe damage to the binocular can occur if the tripod collapses

or is knocked over. It is recommended that the binocular be removed if

the user is not within arm’s reach of the tripod.

RANGEFINDER RETICLE

ATN 10x42RF Binocular Reticle displays the reticle on the right view

side. Reticle focus can be adjusted via an left side eyepiece diopter.

The 10x42RF reticle is universal for different distance. The Reticle has

the 5 to 10 mil increments in the center for long distance, large target

ranging ability and single mil, half mil spacing on the outer reticle quad-

rants for smaller targets or greater distances. An open Un-Obstructed

field of view is critical for Observation.

MAINTENANCE

Your binocular is designed for years of trouble free use. Following a few

service recommendations will ensure years of service.

OCULAR LENS COVERS

Ocular lens covers are provided to protect the objective lenses of your

binocular. Keeping the lenses protected when not in use reduces the

amount of dust or debris that settles on the lenses.

BINOCULAR CASE

A rugged binocular case is provided to protect your unit when travelling

and not in use.

CLEANING YOUR BINOCULAR

Keeping your binocular clean and dry will allow you maximum enjoy-

ment and trouble-free service. Remove dust and debris with a soft

brush or compressed air.

If your binocular is used at sea, or near a salt-water environment, it is

strongly recommended that you rinse the binocular in fresh water. This

removes salt that may damage your unit.

LENS CLEANING

Dust, salt and the oil left from fingerprint smudges should never be

allowed to remain on the lenses because they can harm the sensitive

multi-coatings applied to the lens surfaces.

Loose dust and debris should be removed by blowing the debris off,

using an optical lens cleaning brush or compressed air.

If fingerprints or smudges remain on the lens, use an optical lens tissue

and lens cleaner solution to clean the lenses. Follow the instructions on

the lens cleaning tissue and cleaner. Lens cleaning supplies are avail-

able from ATN or all camera or optical stores.

NOTE: Do not “over clean” lenses. Excessive cleaning can damage

lens coatings. Do not use household cleaners on the lenses of the bin-

ocular.

HELPFUL TIPS FOR BINOCULAR USERS

• Never leave your binocular exposed to direct sunlight for extended

periods. This can cause damage to the armour coatings or eyepieces.

Th e dashb oard of a n auto mo b il e is n ot a pr oper s tor age lo c atio n for your

binocular, the sunlight is greatly magnified through the windshield.

• Use the neck strap as your “insurance policy” against dropping the

binocular.

• Never walk away from a binocular on a tripod; remove it if you are not

within arm’s length of the tripod.

• Store your binocular in its case and in a cool, dry location.

• Avoid severe temperature fluctuations. For example, bringing it from

an extremely cold condition into a heated environment could cause

condensation build up.
