Leupold Means Minimal Maintenance

Minimal

Lenses

Leupold 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 adjustment covers on, except when

adjusting, to keep out dust and dirt.. (It’s worth noting that, unlike competitive brands, Leupold 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..
