The interpupillary distance won't stay set. They are too loose and I have to adjust them almost every time I bring them up to my eyes, which takes two hands. Can I set them somehow?
thanks for sending me new ones!

To fix the interpupillary distance (IPD) on Athlon MIDAS G2 UHD PRO binoculars, follow these steps:
1. Hold the binoculars to your eyes as if looking at a distant object. 2. Move the binocular barrels closer together or further apart until they align with your eyes. 3. Adjust until you see a single full circle without shading at the edges. 4. Reset this adjustment each time you use the binoculars.

Please read this manual to help you optimize your experience with your Athlon Midas G2 UHD PRO binocular. This manual will tell you how to adjust your Athlon binocular for your eyes. It will also show you how to use the features and accessories for your binocular, and how to care for this optical instrument.
STEP 1 - EYECUP ADJUSTMENT Your Athlon binocular has eyecups that can twist up or down. These adjustments are for ease of use, for the users comfort, to exclude stray light, and so any viewer can see the full field of view. For users without eyeglasses, ad- just the eyecups counterclockwise until they lock into the full up position.

STEP 2 - ADJUSTING DIOPTER, RETICLE FOCUS, AND RETICLE LEVEL These binoculars have a diopter (1), reticle focus (2), a reticle level adjustment (3), and a main focusing wheel (4). The diopter, reticle focus, and reticle level will need to be adjust- ed only once, before your first use, to ensure a clear reticle and image simultaneously.

• To adjust your reticle focus, choose a new target image that is blank such as a wall or a clear blue sky. Adjust the main focus until your target image (background) is out-of-focus. Rotate the reticle focus until the reticle becomes sharp and clear.

STEP 3 - INTERPUPILLARY DISTANCE (IPD) ADJUSTMENTS The distance between the center of your pupils of your left and right eyes is called “Interpu- pillary distance” (IPD). The IPD is different for each person. To achieve perfect alignment of lens to your eyes, you must match the IPD of your binoculars to that of your eyes so that you see a single image free from shading edge to edge.

STEP 4 - USING THE RETICLE THE ATHLON® ATBR MIL RETICLE ATBR MIL reticle is designed to assist shoot- ers and spotters in providing shooting cor- rections as well as the ability to perform milliradian ranging of targets. The .2 mil open-center crosshair provides a fine focal point to center your target.

RETICLE SUBTENSIONS The ATBR MIL reticle is based on the milliradian, usually shortened to mrad or mil. A “mil” is defined as “one thousandth”, or 1/1000. A mil is 1/1000 of a radian ( a unit of angular measurement). Since there are 6.2832 radians in a circle, and each ra- dian is chopped up into a thousand pieces, there are 6.2832 x 1000 = 6,283.2 mils in a circle.

See Figure 4. TRIPOD MOUNT Your Athlon binocular has a tripod adapter socket under the Athlon circle logo plate in the objective end of the center hinge. The threads in the socket are a ¼-20 thread, standard on most tripod adaptors.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CARE Your Athlon binocular will provide you with a lifetime of ser- vice if you take good care of them and follow these simple in- structions: 1. Avoid banging and dropping. 2. Store in a cool, dry place.
