Objective lens, eyepiece and IR illuminator condition; cracks, finger marks, dirt, water
drops and other stains are not acceptable.

MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that technical maintenance should be performed on the SENTINEL at least
2 times a year; tasks for technical maintenance include:
To clean the exterior of the scope of dust, dirt and moisture using a dry tissue with a few drops
of gun oil or similar substance applied.
To clean the electrical contact lead located in the battery housing using pure alcohol.
To examine the lenses of the eyepiece, objective lens and IR illuminator and blow off sizable
particles of sand and dust; clean the lenses only if necessary.

cloth and then proceed to clean the lens.
Warning: Please use extreme caution when handling hazardous substances, such as alcohol.
