| Clamp Adjustments
Step 1: Invert the sight and notice the retaining
clip that is holding the lever onto the sight. Place a small screwdriver
blade on the edge of the retaining clip, and by using the thumb lever as
a pivot, rotate the retainer out of it's detent. In the field, you can
hold the sight steady by placing it between your knees. Step 2: Once the retaining clip is rotated 90 degrees, you can easily slide it off of the center shaft of the clamp lever. It will now pull off of the sight.
Step 3: Once the clip is removed, you can disengage the lever from it's gear on the center shaft. be sure not to lose the clip or the washer underneath the lever.
Step 4: With the sight mounted to the rifle,
re-position the lever until you can obtain a tight fit on the weapon
optics side plate. Do not overtighten.
Step 5: Once the proper tension is obtained, replace the lever onto the gear, making sure to relocate the stem of the bushing arm in the hole in the lever flag. Also make sure you have not lost the special washer that fits under the lever.
Step 6: Now, replace the lever retaining clip, by inserting the center shaft into the large hole in the clip.
Step 7: Now simply slide the
clip back into the detent. Try the fit, make sure the sight will slide
onto the plate easily, and will also tighten up. There should be a
moderate amount of tension on the lever when it is about 85 percent
closed, and it should take mild pressure to lock it completely. Do not
overtighten. Repeat the procedure to adjust the tension if needed.
