5. Opsætning og installation

Follow these steps to properly install your HM3X Magnifier:

1. Prepare the Firearm: Ensure the firearm is unloaded and pointed in a safe direction.
2. Bestem højden: The HM3X comes with a QD mount and a spacer. Use the spacer if your primary optic (e.g., red dot sight) is set to a lower 1/3 co-witness height. If your primary optic is absolute co-witness, the magnifier can be mounted directly to the QD mount without the spacer.
3. Attach Magnifier to Mount: If not already assembled, align the magnifier with the QD mount and secure it using the provided mounting screws. Ensure they are tightened firmly but do not overtighten.
4. Montering på skinne: Open the QD lever on the mount. Place the magnifier onto the Picatinny rail behind your primary optic. Ensure it is seated fully forward in a rail slot to prevent movement under recoil.
5. Fastgør monteringen: Close the QD lever. It should close with firm resistance. If it is too loose or too tight, adjust the tension screw on the QD mount until it provides a secure fit.
6. Align with Primary Optic: Position the magnifier directly behind your red dot sight or other primary optic. The goal is to have the magnifier's field of view centered on your primary optic's reticle.

6. Betjening

Using your HM3X Magnifier is straightforward:

6.1. Engaging and Disengaging Magnification

• To engage the 3X magnification, simply push the magnifier forward until it locks into place directly behind your primary optic.
• To disengage magnification and use your primary optic unmagnified, push the magnifier to the side. It will pivot and lock into a stowed position, clearing your line of sight.

6.2. Dioptrijustering

The diopter adjustment ring allows you to fine-tune the focus of the magnifier to your individual eyesight, ensuring a crisp image of your primary optic's reticle.

1. With the magnifier engaged (in line with your primary optic), look through the eyepiece.
2. Rotate the diopter adjustment ring (located on the eyepiece) until the reticle of your primary optic appears sharp and clear through the magnifier.
3. Once adjusted, the diopter should not need frequent readjustment unless different users operate the magnifier.

7. Vedligeholdelse

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your HM3X Magnifier.

• Problem: Magnifier feels loose on the rail or shifts under recoil.
  Løsning: Check the tension of the QD mount lever. Adjust the tension screw on the QD mount to ensure a secure fit on the Picatinny rail.
• Problem: Magnifier does not flip smoothly or locks up.
  Løsning: Ensure the flip-to-side mechanism is clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of light lubricant if necessary, but avoid getting it on the lenses.
• Problem: Reticle of primary optic is not centered in the magnifier's view.
  Løsning: The HM3X does not have windage/elevation adjustments for reticle centering. Ensure your primary optic is properly zeroed. Minor optical alignment issues are normal and typically do not affect accuracy.
