Removing Eyepiece Assembly
(Figure 4-27)
The eyepiece ring can be screwed off to allow cleaning of the eyepiece concave lens. The plate
is glued to the housing. Use a knife to lift an edge or corner. Insert a thin metal blade under the
plate. Gently pry the plate free of the housing. Try not to bend or deform the plate. Slight bends
can be pressed flat in a smooth-jaw vise. Replace plate if permanently bent.
The four screws holding the eyepiece housing to the rangefinder assembly may have glue or
epoxy on both the Phillips head and the threads. Use a sharp pick to remove glue from the cross
slot. Use a carefully selected Phillips head screwdriver, with a blunt tip, flutes to fit the cross slot
and a sturdy shank. Be careful not to strip the heads. Remove the four screws.
Grip the eyepiece housing and pry it free.
The stepped spacer is glued to the assembly on the outer edge. When you pull this spacer out,
the first convex lens will fall out, unless you are prepared to catch it. Reassemble the lenses and
spacers as shown in Figure 4-27.
The mask is glued into the stepped spacer. It should not be necessary to pry out this mask unless
it is defective.
Reassembly will require removal of some glue from the plate. Apply Pliobond adhesive and press
the plate into the mating recess on the rangefinder assembly.
