2. Inspect and ensure that reticle has all mil dots in place and cross hairs are attached in the proper position. If unservice-

able, replace telescope (5).

3. Check that the elevation knob (3) moves freely from 1 thorough 10 on the scale and is not bent; there should be distinct

clicks. Replace unserviceable scopes (5) in accordance with current directives. For scopes that cannot be repaired, Inter-

mediate Maintenance will designate Condition Code “W” and mark for rebuild by the manufacture. Condition Code “H”

is not authorized for this scope. Once the replacement scope has been mounted, refer to the procedures outlined in TM

05539-OR_ for zeroing and final adjustments, and make appropriate entries in the Weapon Record book.

4. Check that the elevation fine-tune adjustment lever moves through to the “V” on both sides of the scale. Adjustment

lever should be tight and should move with slight force.

5. Check that the windage knob (2) moves freely through all the numbers in both directions. If unserviceable, replace tele-

scope (5).

6. Check that setscrews (1) are present and serviceable for each knob. Inspect and tighten setscrews as needed. Replace

setscrews if needed.

7. Inspect telescope ring bases (4) for damaged or missing pieces. If replacement is required, evacuate the telescope (5) to

the IMA.
