cleaning
The fully waterproof and fogproof Vortex Viper PST 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.
When cleaning the lenses, be sure to use products, such as the
Vortex Fog Free cleaning products or Lens Pen, that are specifically
designed for use on coated optical lenses.
• 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.
lubricaTion
All components of the Vortex Viper PST riflescopes are permanently
lubricated, so no additional lubricant should be applied.
Note: Other than to remove the turret caps, do not attempt to
disassemble any components of the riflescope. Disassembling of
riflescope may void warranty.
STorage
If possible, avoid exposing your Vortex riflescope to direct sunlight or
any very hot location for long periods of time.
