CLEANING THE EYEPIECE
You may need to clean the eyepiece of the riflescope from time to time in order to guarantee top per- formance. When you receive your riflescope you should check for dust on the eyepiece of the unit.
First you will need to remove the eyepiece. To do that you will need to initially loosen the 2 set screws that can be found on the base. Then unscrew the eyepiece
NOTE: You do not have to remove the set screws completely, they are very small and easy to mis- place.
CAUTION: Use only Photographic lens cleaning tissue on these surfaces. Be careful not to scratch or smudge any of these surfaces. When using compressed air to blow dust away, make sure to avoid inverting the can while spraying. This can cause frozen propellant to exit the can, which can cause serious problems with the glass and phosphor screen.
