MOUNTING
We strongly recommend having your scope mounted by
a qualified gunsmith or professional workshop to ensure that
the gun and riflescope are properly aligned.
DIOPTER ADJUSTMENT
The purpose of the diopter adjustment is to adjust the scope
to the user’s eye and compensate for individual prescriptions.
If corrective glasses are to be worn when shooting, the diopter
should be adjusted while wearing the glasses.
Note: When making adjustments on the riflescope, please
adhere to the safety rules when handling your weapon.
To adjust the focus, first turn the diopter ring to the highest
magnification and turn slowly in the opposite direction until
you have reached the sharpest possible image. For best results,
look at a neutral colored object in the distance like a cloudy sky
or tree line. When looking through the scope, the reticle must
be in sharp focus without having to make any further adjust-
ments. Even though the eye can compensate for a suboptimal
focus for some time, this results in eye fatigue after prolonged
use.
To adjust the focus on the 1-5x24, set the power at 1x before
adjusting the diopter in order to achieve an optimal setting for
a fast target acquisition with both eyes open. Look at a target in
the distance (>50 m) with both eyes open – one eye looking at
the target through the scope. Turn the diopter adjustment ring
until both images are the same size and in sharp focus. If the
settings are correct, you should have a binocular image..
ADJUSTING THE MAGNIFICATION
Turn the variable power ring towards the front of the eyepiece
to your desired magnification. Turning clockwise with increase
the power and counter-clockwise will decrease the power.
PARALLAX COMPENSATION
Parallax is the visible movement of the reticle over the target
image. This occurs when the observing eye moves vertically or
horizontally behind the riflescope and the scope has not yet
been adjusted parallax-free to the target distance. This move-
ment is also called parallax error and is a displacement of the
apparent position of an object viewed along two dierent lines
of sight.
Parallax compensation brings the target image into the same
focal plane as the reticle. The target image as seen by the
shooter is brought into focus and hereby eliminates parallax
errors. To determine if the riflescope is parallax-free at the de-
sired distance, move your head up and down, and from side to
side while looking at the target through the riflescope. If the
reticle appears to be moving while doing this (make sure that
the weapon is absolutely still), the parallax adjustment has not
been set at the desired distance and needs to be readjusted. If
the image is still out of focus even though the parallax com-
pensation has been properly set, check the diopter
adjustment.
Due to thermal expansion of the riflescope and varying atmos-
pheric conditions, the markings on the parallax compensation
cannot be accurate under all circumstances – they serve mostly
as an indication of which direction it should be turned. If high
precision is required, the parallax should always be adjusted
under the current conditions using the procedure described
above.
