Focus the IR beam to change the field of coverage. To focus the beam, rotate the IR illuminator lens until

the image becomes clear.

Adjust the IR spot position in the field of view of the NVD

(night vision device) as follows:

1) Loosen the screw of the clamp on the IR illuminator

mount.
2) Turn on the sight and the IR illuminator.
3) Carefully move the lens of the IR810 up and down and

side to side. While looking through the eyepieces of your

device, observe the IR spot position.
4) Once the IR spot is centered in the field of view, tighten

the fixing screw of the clamp.

5. MAInTEnAnCE PROCEDURES

The Orion should always be stored in the supplied packaging, particularly in heated and ventilated

rooms. To keep the device operational, please follow the instructions (below) regarding preparations

preparations for storage. The battery should be stored separately from the device, and be inserted into

the battery compartment only when the device is being prepared for use. The presence of both acids

and alkalis near the device is not recommended.
While stored, your Orion should be protected from exposure to direct sunlight or extreme tempera-

tures.

ORIOn ClEAnIng PROCEDURES

1) Gently remove any dirt from the sight’s body using a clean, soft cloth.
2) Wipe external surfaces down (with the exception of optical surfaces) with a clean cloth that has

been moistened with pure water.
3) Dry all wet surfaces with a different clean, dry cloth.
4) Carefully remove any dirt from the optical surfaces using a lens brush.
5) To avoid scratches, optical surfaces must be cleaned using a clean cotton swab that has been slight-

ly dampened with pure alcohol. The glass should be wiped in circular motions starting from the center

and moving out towards the edge, without touching the barrel. Change the cotton swab as soon as it

becomes dirty.

EyEPIECE MAInTEnAnCE

Occasionally, you may have to clean the eyepiece of your Armasight Orion sight. After unpacking the

Orion sight, make sure that there is no dust or dirt on or in the eyepiece. If you do find dust or dirt on

the eyepiece, you will need to remove them for cleaning. The body of eyepiece has two set screws,

which you will need to loosen first. After loosening these screws, turn the eyepiece counterclockwise

to separate it from the body of the device.

nOTE:

It is unnecessary to completely remove the set screws. To avoid losing these miniature screws,

leave them at least partially inside the body of the device.

CAUTIOn:

Only apply photographic lens cleaning tissues to the surface of the eyepieces. Avoid damaging

or leaving fingerprints on the lenses. A can of compressed air may be used to blow dust off of the

lenses. Do not tip the can while spraying, as you may cause the propellant to freeze as it exits the

can. This may damage the glass and the tube phosphor screen.
