Eotech G-series User manual

INTRODUCTION

ank you for purchasing a new EOTECH magnier. ese

magniers oer users of the Holographic Weapon Sight (all

models) the additional advantage of vastly improved target rec-

ognition and increased lethality at medium range distances. e

STS mount allows the user the ability to engage the enemy with condence in a Close Quarters Battle (CQB)

situation or at distances out to 600 meters or more. is user manual describes the features of the EOTECH

Magniers and provides information on their use and maintenance. Please read the instructions carefully

before mounting and using the magnier. Always practice proper rearm safety.

OPTIC CONFIGURATION

e EOTECH Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS)

product line has two dierent heights above the rail

based on user preference. For this reason, the mag-

nier does not come preassembled to the mount.

It is user congurable based on the specic model

HWS it will be mounted behind. e 7mm riser,

included, may be required to align the magnier

optical axis with the sight. Only HWS models with

side buttons or quick detach levers require the use of

the riser. For all other HWS models, the riser should

not be used.

e magnier system can be congured to switch to the le or to the right based on shooting preference.

Typically, right handed shooters prefer the mount to switch to the right, and le handed shooters to the le.

To congure your HWS you will need a screwdriver (not included). If the riser is not used, the shorter screws

should be selected. e longer screws are used with the riser only. If the riser is being used, place the riser

on the optic mounting interface. Open the STS mount. Position the mount on the optic mount interface (or

riser) so it opens either to the le or right (based on preference). Insert each screw through the components,

and tighten securely. If using a torque wrench, the screws should be tightened to 24 in-lbs. Note: If you

purchased the magnier as part of an HHS combo kit, the screw pack will not be included as the magnifer

comes preassmbled.

BASIC OPERATION

e G-Series magniers are designed to be used behind an EOTECH Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS). e

magnier can be mounted directly behind the HWS. Simply switch the magnier out of the way and operate

the sight. When used with HWS models 518, 558, 556, 517, EXPS or 516 HWS (with side button interface) the

user can easily operate the sight even with the magnier in the locked position.

Positioning the Reticle:

Once the magnier is installed properly behind the HWS, it may be necessary to re-zero the sight. is may

be due to the shooter’s ability to see the target and Point of Impact (POI) more accurately than without the

magnier. Re-zeroing the sight will prevent a perceived shi in POI when going from no magnication to

magnication.

RETICLE POSITION ADJUSTMENTS

Aer zeroing or re-zeroing the sight, it may be necessary to reposition the reticle image into the center of the

magnier window. is is aesthetic in nature and has no aect on the sight’s zero. Turn the horizontal and

vertical adjustments on the top or side of

the magnier by hand, with a coin or a

at head screwdriver to reposition reticle

to the desired position.

SWITCH OPERATION

To switch the magnier to the side,

simply push the optic to the right or le,

depending on how it is mounted. To close

the mount, push the magnier back into

its original position until a hard stop is

achieved.

ADJUSTABLE DIOPTER

e optic includes an adjustable diopter that allows the user to customize the

focus to their particular vision. is feature ensures a crisp, clean aiming dot

for more precision and shot placement. To adjust, simply grasp the diopter

with the thumb and fore nger and turn either clockwise or counter-clockwise

until a clear sight picture is achieved.

Note: Depending on the users vision, you may observe a small change to the

magnication during diopter adjustment.

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance of the magnier is limited to cleaning of the outside housing of the optic and cleaning the lenses.

e optical system is coated with anti-reection material. When cleaning the glass surfaces, rst blow away

any dirt and dust. Fingerprints and lubricants can be wiped o with lens tissue or a so cotton cloth which is

moistened with lens cleaning uid or glass cleaner, sold in any camera store. Never clean the glass surface with

a dry cloth or paper towel; always dampen the glass surfaces prior to cleaning.

No maintenance is needed on the magnier’s surface, except to occasionally wipe o with a so cloth. Use

only a water-based cleaner such as glass cleaner, ammonia, or soap and water. CAUTION: Never use any

solvent-type cleaner such as alcohol or acetone.

WARNING: NEVER DISASSEMBLE YOUR MAGNIFIER! e optical cavity is purged, nitrogen lled,

and sealed to achieve fog proof performance. Disassembly will void the warranty and damage the magnier.

If the switch action of the switch to Side mount begins to stick from wear, use a common spray lubricant on

the hinge portion of the mount. No other maintenance is needed on the Switch to Side Mount other than

cleaning the surface. Please follow the same guidelines when cleaning the magniers.

INSTALLATION

To install the congured magnier onto the weapon, open the quick detach lever. To do this, use your thumb

to depress the locking button (see Figure 4). Once depressed, swing the quick detach lever open and away

from its nested position. Place the mount in the desired position behind the HWS. Once the mount is located

in the desired position, push the magnier forward until the cross bolt of the magnier is set into the slot

located on the mount. Close the quick detach lever.

If the mount is too loose or tight for your specic rail, adjustments can be made for a proper t (see Figure

5). First, remove the magnier from the rail. Leaving the quick detach lever in its open position, turn the

unit upside down, exposing the rail interface. To loosen the adjustment, turn the dial counterclockwise. To

tighten, turn the dial clockwise. Once done, re-mount the optic to the rail. Continue incremental changes

until a desired t is achieved. CAUTION: Never make adjustments while the quick detach lever is in the

closed position.
