CHAPTER I
1.1 PRESENTATION
Aimpoint Micro T-1 Reex Sight is a small, light and rugged red dot sight
developed mainly for military and law enforcement applications.
Aimpoint red dot sights are designed for the ”two eyes open” method
of sighting, which greatly enhances situational awareness and target
acquisition speed. Thanks to the parallax-free design, the dot follows
the movement of the user’s eye while remaining xed on the target,
eliminating any need for centering. Further, the Micro T-1 allows for
unlimited eye-relief and is compatible with 1st , 2nd and 3rd generation
night vision devices.
The Aimpoint Micro T-1 uses the Advanced Circuit Efciency
Technology, called ACET, which combines Aimpoint’s superior accuracy
and ease of use with signicantly lower power usage.
With the Micro T-1 sight, Aimpoint has introduced an aiming system
that gives the performance of our full-sized sights in the smallest package
possible.

OPERATION UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS
2.1. ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR USE
WARNING: Insure the weapon is unloaded and the safety
selector is in the ”safe” position before attempting to install,
remove or perform maintenance on the sight.
2.1.1 Installing Battery
a) Remove Battery Cap (2) by turning it counter clockwise.
b) Insert a battery (type CR2032) with positive (+) end toward Cap.
CAUTION: while replacing battery (not necessary when the sight is
new). Before installing Battery Cap (2), inspect that the O-ring is present
and not damaged. Failure to do so could result in water leakage into the
battery compartment.
c) Install Battery Cap (2) by turning clockwise until snug. Tighten with the
provided Tool (9B) only.
d) Verify that red dot is present by turning the Rotary Switch (4)
clockwise.
2.1.2. Installing Sight on the weapon
The Micro Sight is designed for installation on most types of weapons,
which have a MIL-Std 1913 Picatinny Rail or Weaver Rail. If your weapon
does not have or support an appropriate base(s), please consult your
dealer, gunsmith or other qualied source.
