OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The SENTINEL night vision riflescope is intended for observation and shooting at dusk or during
nighttime hours. It is a passive starlight device, and in most conditions does not require an artificial
or IR light source. The scope is built with a high performance Gen1 image intensifier tube. The
built-in IR illuminator enhances a viewing ability in environments of absolute darkness. Power
supply, with the voltage stabilization, works up to 70 hours using 2 AA batteries. Low batteries do
not affect aiming ability. Additional remote stabilized power supply was designed for optimized
power consumption, which ensures a consistent aiming point in conditions of continuous power
draw or drop in temperature.
The SENTINEL is a universal night vision scope, which is ideal for night observation and hunting.
USING THE SENTINEL
The SENTINEL was designed to provide many years of reliable service. To ensure longevity and
performance, it is necessary to follow all procedures and guidelines outlined in this manual.
Warning:
The SENTINEL is not recommended for use with cartridges producing recoil rating higher than
3700 joules or calibers in excess of 7.62/.300. The manufacturer's warranty will be voided if damage
is caused by caliber cartridges greater than 7.62/.300, hand made cartridges or shooting from a
smooth-bore barrel.
•
Do not remove the lens cap in a lit area if the scope has been activated or if the eyepiece is
emitting a green glow.
•
Exposure to bright light can damage the image intensifier tube (IIT).
•
Do not remove the objective lens cover in a lit area immediately after using the scope. It will
stay activated for 20 minutes after the unit has been turned off.
•
The scope has an IPX4 water resistance rating. It is water resistant and can be used in
inclement weather conditions.
•
Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the scope!
•
Clean the scope's optical surfaces only if necessary, and use caution. Remove dust and sand
by blowing air across the optic surface, then apply lens cleaning fluid for multi layered optics
onto a soft cloth or tissue and wipe carefully. Do not pour any fluid, including alcohol, onto
the lenses directly.
•
The scope can be used in temperatures ranging from -30°
С
to +40°
С
. However, when it is
brought indoors from cold temperatures, wait 3-4 hours before using the unit.
•
Consult a qualified gunsmith if there is difficulty attaching the scope firmly to a rifle or if
there is uncertainty about the right type of mount. The weapon mount can be deformed or
destroyed by shooting with a riflescope that is not mounted correctly.
