Q: How Should I Care for my Spotting Scope When not in Use?

A: Your scope should be returned to storage, dry, and in as clean a condition as possible, optically and mechanically. This will make it ready for use on demand. Keeping your scope as clean as possible during use upholds its condition and will make preparation for storage quite easy.

After inspecting the condition of your scope and making sure optics and the scope body are clean and dry, place on the lens covers and the scope case. (By making sure the body of the scope is clean, the chance of transmitting debris to the optics is reduced or eliminated. Returning your scope to storage, dry, helps to keep micro-biological growth from forming). We may suggest storing your scope in a clean, dry, protected environment (indoors, and in a drawer or cabinet).

A properly maintained scope will provide long-lasting, consistent, and dependable performance.
