Thesemay be replaced by fold-over eyecups (Fig. 7/1) asdesired.• Remove the eyeglass protection rings (Fig. 7/2)from the eyepieces and attach the eyecups(Fig. 7/1).Inserting the eyepiece reticlesThe focusing eyepieces are intended for use with eyepiece reticles.• Unscrew the existing mount (Fig. 7/4) with eyepiece reticle from the eyepiece without exerting heavyradial pressure on the diaphragm unit in order to avoid deformation and jamming.• Replace it with a new mount containing the eyepiece reticle (Fig. 7/3) required.When inserting an eyepiece reticle in the unscrewed mount, bear in mind that the writingappears reversed before and non-reversed after screwing the mount back into the eyepiece.The slight image shift caused by the additional path through glass is taken into account on the diopterscale by the fact that the zero point position is indicated not by the white dot (Fig. 7/W) but by the reddot (Fig. 7/R).In eyepiece W-PL 10x/23 Br. foc.
