INSTALLATION RULES.
a. Variant I – Adapter rail with Standard Prism type.
Device is fixed with the help of the following parts:
Front and rear feet (2, 3) are the standard feet with Standard prism
(4), manufactured by the companies that produce mounts (for
example, Ernst Apel GmbH Germany)). The mount of Standard
prism type (4) and screws (5) are optional.
Installation of the device should be performed according to the
following rules:
• Check the prominence of fixation screws (5) that bind the prism
(4) to the body (1) of the device over the top surface of the prism.
The prominence must not be less than 2.5 mm or more than 3.0
mm. This is especially important if in the body of the device
there is a dead threaded hole. For the reach-through holes the
prominence may reach 3.5 mm, but must not be less than 2.5
mm. In order to meet this requirement you can cut the threaded
part of the screws at length;

• Install the feet onto the rail (4). Insert the feet (2, 3) in the rifle. Sliding
the rail in the feet, find the position, in which your eye will meet the
edge of the eyeshade of the device or will be 2-5 cm apart for big
calibres (like .375 H&H Mag). The position of the device must be
comfortable enough so that you would not have to reach forward for
convenient observation;
• Cut the excessive part of the rail (4);
• Keeping the chosen position of the device, fix the feet (2, 3) to the rail
(4) according on the instruction of the feet producer;
• Prepare the glue according to an instruction (the glue need to be of a
certain strength not less than 200 kg/cm
2
, for example epoxy) and apply
it to (A) surface of the rail. The surface of the screws must remain free
of the glue. This is especially important for possibility to repair the
device or to remove the binding rail for installation on a different rifles;
• Apply hermetic (silicone type) to the threading of the screws (5).
• Fix the bar to the body of the device with the help of the screws (5), cut
to meet the needed length;
• Remove excessive glue (that is pushed out in the points the rail is
connected to the body of the device) with the help of dry cloth and
alcohol-moistened cotton wool, and let the glue take according to its
instruction (for example, 24 hours for epoxy).
Installation is completed and the device is ready for use as a hunting scope.
