Apparently that cap does come off and you have to use a narrow Tripod Adapter. So the Athlon produce adapter 706001 should work but the question is the adapter base.

The manual states:

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.
