FOCUSING RETICLE

Secure the scope and firearm in a firm rest. Safely point the scope at a
light colored background object. With the scope approximately four inches
from your eye the reticle should appear sharp and crisp; if it does not, it is
necessary to adjust the focus by means of the eyepiece.

1. If you tend to hold things away from yourself to see them clearly (you
are farsighted) turn the eyepiece counterclockwise a couple of turns. If
you hold things close to yourself to see them clearly (you are
nearsighted) turn the eyepiece clockwise a couple of turns.

2. Looking through the scope when pointed at the sky, take a few quick
glances at the reticle. The focus of the reticle should be noticeably
different from when you started. Continue this process until the reticle
appears clear and sharp.

AIM MEANS MINIMAL MAINTENANCE

AIM scope lenses are coated to reduce light reflections and light scattering,
thus increasing light transmission through the scope. They should be
cleaned as carefully as you would a camera lens. Begin by using a lens
brush to remove dust and then pure alcohol, high-grade glass cleaner or
pure water on a cotton swab.

WINDAGE/ ELEVATION ADJUSTMENTS

These adjustments are permanently lubricated. There is no need to
lubricate them. Keep the turret caps on, except when adjusting, to keep out
dust and dirt. (It’s worth noting that, unlike competitive brands, AIM scopes
are waterproof even without the caps in place.)

EYEPIECE ADJUSTMENT

This adjustment is permanently lubricated. There is no need to lubricate it.
The eyepiece can be rotated as far as it will go in either direction. It will not
detach from the scope as there is an internal lock ring.
