Focusing your Scope
If your AIM scope is one of our models without an eyepiece lock
ring, follow these simple steps:
1. All fine focus adjustments are made with the eyepiece.
2. Look through the scope with quick glances while focusing the
reticle image. If you tend to hold things away from yourself to
see them clearly (farsighted) turn the eyepiece ring counter
clockwise until the reticle is clear and sharp. If you hold
them close to yourself to see them clearly (nearsighted) turn
the eyepiece ring clockwise until the reticle is sharp and clear.
If your eyesight changes, readjust the eyepiece. As we age,
eyesight normally changes. You may want to check the sharp-
ness of the reticle on your scope every few years to ensure it is
still adjusted correctly for your eye.
NOTE: To protect the integrity of the waterproof seal of
every AIM scope, an internal mechanism,
prevents the eyepiece from being removed.
The primary function of a scope is to aim the firearm. Never use
the scope as a substitute for binoculars. Never watch another
person through the scope.
To illuminate the reticle:
1. Grasp the illumination dial located at the top of the eyepiece
shell.
2. Turn the dial clockwise from the OFF position to the first
number indicated on the dial.
3. View the target through the scope to determine if the reticle is
bright enough to stand out clearly against the target.
To preserve the life of the battery, always remember to turn the
illumination dial to the OFF position when the scope is not in
use. For prolonged storage, remove the battery.
If the reticle fails to illuminate or appears dim even on the high-
est illumination setting, it is necessary to change the battery.
WARNING: Always check to ensure that the firearm is unloaded
before changing the battery in the scope.
