INSTALLATION:
It is recommended to have the red dot sight mounted by a professional gunsmith. However, if
attempting to mount the red dot sight without professional assistance, please read and strictly
adhere to the following directions.
1. The Red Dot Sight comes with a weaver/picatinny mount.
2. Unload the weapon. Remove the bolt/firing pin to ensure the weapon is incapable of firing.
3. Install the red dot sight onto a Weaver or picatinny base. Tighten the mounting screw (5)
between 45 - 65 inch pounds of torque.
4. Once the alignment is checked, tighten the mounting screw. Take care not to over tighten
the screw.
5. Ensure the red dot sight provides the desired eye relief by moving the weapon into the
shooting position.
6. Check that the red dot sight is evenly mounted, and boresight the sight.
BORESIGHTING THE RED DOT SIGHT:
Boresighting and test firing should be performed safely on a firing range. Laser boresights are
a quick and accurate method to sighting in red dot sight. Below is listed the traditional method
of boresighting.
1. When mounting the red dot sight on a bolt action rifle, remove the bolt; or when mounting
to a semi automatic rifle, disassemble the rifle until there is a straight line of sight through the bore.
2. Use a target at least twenty yards to fifty yards away when sighting in the red dot sight. Look
through the bore of the weapon and locate the bull’s-eye of the target.
3. Sight in the target through the bore and then make windage and elevation adjustments (see
“Operating Windage and Elevation Adjustments” for instructions) to the red dot sight until the
reticle is centered on the bull’s-eye.
To verify the red dot sight is accurately sighted in, always fire a three-shot test group at 100
yards.
4. If you are still off center, make the necessary amount of adjustments to move the reticle to
the center of the target.
5. Again fire a three-shot test group, and use the center of the group to determine final
adjustments.
OPERATING WINDAGE AND ELEVATION:
In order to make windage and elevation adjustments:
1. Remove the caps covering the windage and elevation adjustments (6) .
2. The windage and elevation adjustments are 1/2 MOA, meaning that 1 click moves the point of
impact 1/2inch at 100 yards. FF26028 and FF26029 Will require a flathead screwdriver to adjust windage and elevation. Adjustments can be both felt and heard allowing the shooter to make adjustments without looking at the dials.
3. Once adjustments are complete, screw the windage and elevation caps onto the adjustments.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY:
The Firefield Impulse 1x28 Red Dot (FF26026), Firefield Impulse 1x28 Red Dot with red laser
(FF26027), and Firefield Impulse 1x22 Red dot with laser (FF26029) are powered by 1 AAA. The
Firefield Impulse 1x22 Red dot (FF26028) is powered by 1 CR2032. Should the reticle or laser
grow dim or not illuminate, the battery needs to be replaced. To install a new battery:
1. Unscrew the battery cap (7) counterclockwise.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Insert new batteries with the positive (+) side facing up.
4. Screw the battery cap clockwise. Do not over tighten.
OPERATING THE ON/OFF SWITCH:
FF26026, FF26027, FF26028:
In order to activate the red dot sight:
1. Locate the on/off switch (3).
2. Rotate the adjustment switch to the desired illumination setting of 1 through 5.
3. After use, turn the switch to the off position marked by “0”.
FF26029:
In order to activate the red dot sight:
1. Locate the Up Down arrow buttons.
2. Press up or down to adjust brightness.
3. Hold up to switch reticle color.
4. Hold down to shut off illuminated reticle
OPERATING THE SIDE-MOUNTED:
The built in 5mW red laser is used for target acquisition in close range, rapid changing
environments. The laser has built-in windage and elevation adjustments (6) that allow the laser
to be accurately sighted in with your rifle. To operate the laser:
1. Locate the red laser on/off switch (4).
2. Push the button located on the back of the switch to turn the laser on.
3. Push the button again to turn the laser off.
Warning: NEVER point the laser designator directly at, or into, someone’s eye. This may cause
damage to the eye, or blindness. Avoid looking directly into the laser. Avoid shining the laser into
mirrors or other reflective surfaces.
Note: due to visual restrictions of 5mW red lasers at greater distances in daylight, the most
effective application is for close range/ CQB scenarios. Shooters should evaluate the recurrent
range targets are acquired in their scenarios and sight the laser to their firearm’s point of impact
at that range.
MAINTENANCE:
Proper maintenance of the red dot sight is recommended to ensure longevity. It is recommended
that when the riflescope becomes dirty that it is wiped down with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
Blow dirt and debris off all optics and then clean lenses with a lens cleaning cloth. No further
maintenance is required.
WARNING:
Do NOT disassemble the red dot sight for any reason, as this will void the warranty and could
be hazardous. Any internal work should be handled by the manufacturer. CAUTION: Use of
controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may
result in hazardous radiation exposure.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
Never ship back a product without getting proper authorization beforehand. Doing so could
result in losing the riflescope due to a multitude of reasons, i.e. sending it to the wrong address
and other problems associated with unexpected packages.
1. Check that the firearm’s mount is securely attached. Also, verify the red dot sight is mounted
securely to the rifle. If there is any shifting, retighten the mounting system according to the
mounting instructions but do not over tighten.
2. When test firing a rifle to check the point of impact relative to windage and elevation
adjustments, firing from a shooting rest will help eliminate shifting during firing.
3. Be sure to use factory-loaded ammunition of the same bullet type, weight, and, preferably,
lot number when sighting in the red dot sight.
