User manual BUSHNELL HOLOSIGHT XLP 53-0021

[. . . ] The reticle brightness will not fade gradually as the batteries drain, but will shut down abruptly. The first indication of the batteries draining is the reticle image blinking when the unit is turned on (see Electronic Features Section). Another indication of low batteries is the reticle image blinking off and on during recoil. With high recoil guns, this can occur before the battery check indicates low battery condition. [. . . ] Brightness Adjustment Push-button switches vary the brightness intensity of the holographic reticle image. Pressing and releasing the push-button switch moves the brightness level UP or DOWN one (1) step from the previous setting. Pressing and holding the Up or Down push-button switch will change the brightness level up or down continuously. There are fifteen (15) brightness settings providing a dynamic range of 100, 000:1 from the lowest setting to the highest setting. When the sight is turned ON, the brightness intensity level is at Level 10. Auto Shutdown The Bushnell® Holosight® XLP is equipped with an auto shutdown feature and will automatically shut itself OFF 8 or 4 hours after the last push-button control is used. MOUNTING The Bushnell® Holosight® XLP is equipped with mounting hardware to attach to a Weaver-style rail or to a 12 gauge model 1100, 870 or 1187 Remington® shotgun. To achieve the best results and accuracy, the Bushnell® Holosight® XLP must be mounted properly. For the Weaver-style rail mount, the base must be parallel to the bore to achieve the maximum elevation and windage adjustments. 4 5 To mount the sight to a Weaver-style rail, follow these steps, refer to Figure 3: 1. Place the sight onto the rail such that the unthreaded portion of the cross bolt is fitted into a groove on the top of the Weaver-style rail. The user's preference and the firearm will determine the optimal front to back position on the rail. With the cross bolt inserted fully into the rail's groove, push the sight as far forward as possible. Tighten the hex retainer screw to draw the retainer nut into secure and fully seated contact with the opposite side of the rail. FIGURE 3 NOTE: Loosen the retaining screw just enough to mount or remove the sight. It is not necessary to remove the screw completely, as the lock hardware will not be retained in the sight and could be lost. To mount the sight to a 12 gauge Remington model 870, 1100 or 1187 shotgun, follow these steps, refer to Figure 4: 1. Tighten the two hex retainer screws to secure the sight to the shotgun. FIGURE 4 6 7 BORE SIGHTING AND ZEROING Bore sighting is a good preliminary procedure in achieving proper alignment of your sight to the firearm. If the sight is to be mounted to a Weaver-style rail, it is imperative that the base be parallel to the bore. Any major elevation adjustments may be accomplished by shimming the Weaver-style rail. It is important not to use the elevation adjustment of the sight for major adjustments. The sight's elevation and windage adjustments should be used only for fine-tuning to achieve zero at the desired shooting distance. [. . . ] The laser's illuminating beam can become accessible to the eye if the housing is broken. Turn the sight off immediately and discontinue use until repaired.
