the room.
OPERATING
RETICLE BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT
By rotating the knob you may adjust the ret-
icle’s brightness. Adjustment could be easily
seen if you look through the scope while adjust-
ment.
MOUNTING
1. Slightly loosen the horizontal and vertical
fixing screws on the 7/8” weaver rail built into
the scope.
2. Place the scope on the dovetail mount of the
fire arm making certain that the mount aligns
with the receptor attachment screw groove.
Adjust as necessary.
3. Tighten the horizontal fixing screws.
NOTE: Receptor attachment screws may need to
be tightened after continuous shooting.
FOCUSING
NOTE: We suggest that you focus the diopter
during daylight with the filter on.
Locking knob
Before focusing turn the lens fixation handle
clockwise, to unlock the lenses.
Next, focus the front lens until the image and the
grain are both sharp. When you are in the low-
light conditions and the daylight filter is off you

the diopter should not be adjusted.
NOTE: The front lens should be readjusted as
you view objects at different distances.
To focus your riflescope you will need to adjust
the diopter first thing. Simply turn the diopter
clockwise until it stops. Then, while looking
through the diopter at a subject, slowly turn the
diopter back counter clockwise until the grain
in the image is sharp.
When you are finished to adjust the front lens
focus, you should lock the front lens in place by
turning the lens fixation knob clockwise. Fail-
ure to do this may cause shift in aimpoint when
shooting.

The range finder reticle in your Night Vision Rif-
lescopes was designed to assist you in deter-
mining the range of your target.

A 6’ target fits between the numbered baseline
and the main horizontal line. If the 6’ target fits
between the 2 and the right horizontal post of
the main line the target is 200 yards away. If
the same target fits between the 5 and the right
post of main line the arget is 500 yards away.
The same is with the 1,3 and 4.The target would
be either 100,300 and 400 yards away.
These distances are based on a 6’ target.

A 6’ target fits between the numbered baseline
(the three short horizontal lines directly next to
the numbers) and the main horizontal line. If
the 6’ target fits between the 1 and the right
horizontal post of the main line the target is 100
yards away. If the same target fits between the

CLEANING THE EYEPIECE
You may need to clean the eyepiece of the rif-
lescope from time to time in order to guarantee
top performance. When you receive your rifle-
scope you should check for dust on the eye-
piece of the unit.
NOTE: You do not have to remove the set screws
completely, they are very small and easy to mis-
place.
CAUTION: Use only Photographic lens clean-
ing tissue on these surfaces. Be careful not to
scratch or smudge any of these surfaces.
When using compressed air to blow dust away,
make sure to avoid inverting the can while
spraying. This can cause frozen propellant
to exit the can, which can cause serious prob-
lems with the glass and phosphor screen.
First you will need to remove the eyepiece.
To do that you will need to initially loosen the
2 set screws that can be found on the base.
Then unscrew the eyepiece counter-clockwise
to remove it.
