Maintenance Tips
-
Clean lenses gently: Use a microfiber cloth or lens pen to protect anti-reflective coatings and maintain crystal-clear magnification.
-
Inspect flip mount regularly: Ensure the quick-release and hinge mechanism stays tight and responsive for reliable transitions.
-
Avoid harsh cleaners: Use only optics-safe solutions to preserve lens coatings and prevent damage.
-
Keep it dry & dust-free: Although rugged and weather-resistant, proper storage extends lifespan and performance.
-
Check alignment frequently: Maintain proper co-witness with your red dot sight for optimal accuracy.
-
Wipe after field use: Remove dirt, moisture, and debris from the housing and mount to prevent wear.
-
Store with lens covers on: Protect against scratches during transport or storage.
