The fully waterproof and fogproof Diamondback HP riflescope requires
very little routine maintenance other than periodically cleaning the
exterior lenses. The exterior of the scope may be cleaned by wiping with
a soft, dry cloth.
Cleaning
• Be sure to blow away any dust or grit on the lenses prior to wiping the
surfaces.
• Using your breath, or a very small amount of water or pure alcohol, can
help remove stubborn things like dried water spots.
All components of the Diamondback HP riflescopes are permanently
lubricated, so no additional lubricant should be applied.
Lubrication
When cleaning the lenses, be sure to use products, such as the Vortex
Fog Free cleaning products or LensPen, that are specifically designed for
use on coated optical lenses.
Note: Other than removing the turret caps, do not attempt to disassemble
any components of the riflescope. Disassembling of riflescope may void
warranty.
If possible, avoid exposing your Vortex riflescope to direct sunlight or any
very hot location for long periods of time.
Storage
Indexing Adjustment Dials with Zero Reset
Diamondback HP riflescopes feature windage/elevation dials that allow
you to re-index the zero indicator after sight-in without disturbing your
settings. Though not required to do, this process will allow you to quickly
return to your original zero if temporary corrections are dialed in the field.
Reset the windage and elevation dials in this way:
1. Remove the outer cap.
While firmly holding the
dial, loosen and remove
center screw.
2. Lift dial off of scope.
Orient dial to reposition
the zero mark on the index
line.
3. Replace the dial, then
reinstall and tighten the
center screw while firmly
holding the dial.
