The reflex sight and laser sight use separate batteries.
- For Reflex Sight: Unscrew the battery cap located on the top of the sight (often marked 'R' or 'G' for red/green). Insert one CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side facing up. Securely screw the cap back on.
- For Laser Sight: Unscrew the cap at the rear of the laser module. Insert three LR44 batteries with the positive (+) side facing the cap. Screw the cap back on.
5.2. Mounting the Sight
The RSL-18 Reflex Sight is designed for standard 20mm Picatinny or Weaver rails.
- Loosen the mounting screws on the side of the sight's base using the provided Allen wrench.
- Place the sight onto your firearm's Picatinny or Weaver rail. Position it to your preferred eye relief.
- Ensure the sight is seated firmly against the rail. Tighten the mounting screws evenly until secure. Do not overtighten.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1. Turning On/Off and Brightness Adjustment (Reflex Sight)
The rotary switch on the top of the sight controls power and brightness for the reflex reticle:
- Rotate the switch clockwise from 'OFF' to select green illumination and increase brightness (settings 1-5).
- Rotate the switch counter-clockwise from 'OFF' to select red illumination and increase brightness (settings 1-5).
- Return the switch to the 'OFF' position to power down the reflex sight.
6.2. Reticle Pattern Selection
The reticle selector knob, located at the rear of the sight, allows you to choose between four different reticle patterns:
- Dot
- Circle Dot
- Crosshair
- Crosshair Dot
Rotate the knob to cycle through the available patterns until your desired reticle is displayed.
6.3. Laser Sight Operation
The integrated red laser sight is controlled by a separate switch, typically located on the side of the laser module. Press the switch to turn the laser on or off.
6.4. Sighting In (Zeroing)
Zeroing your sight is crucial for accuracy. This process involves adjusting the reticle and laser to align with your point of impact at a specific distance.
- Windage Adjustment: Use an Allen wrench to turn the windage adjustment screw (typically on the right side of the sight) to move the point of impact left or right.
- Elevation Adjustment: Use an Allen wrench to turn the elevation adjustment screw (typically on the top of the sight) to move the point of impact up or down.
- Laser Adjustment: The laser has separate windage and elevation adjustment screws, usually smaller and located on the laser module itself. Adjust these to align the laser dot with your point of impact.
Note: Make small, controlled adjustments and fire test shots to confirm changes. Repeat until both the reticle and laser are zeroed to your desired distance.
7. Maintenance
7.1. Cleaning
- Use the provided lens cleaning cloth to gently wipe the objective and ocular lenses. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- For the sight body, wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
7.2. Battery Replacement
