PARTS OF THE RANGEFINDER:

Your RF.1 rangefinder comes with a battery already installed.

Before using:

1. Open the battery cap by lifting the battery door tab and

twisting the door counter clock-wise.

2. Remove and discard the plastic insert sitting on top of the

battery.

3. The CR2 battery is already in place.

4. Reinstall battery cap and thread on by twisting clockwise.

POWERING UP:

Once the battery is installed and the 4 steps are completed, press and release the

POWER button. The display will light up to show the unit is on and ready for ranging.

The laser will power down automatically after 10 seconds of non-use.

FIRING THE LASER:

To fire the laser, simply look through the ocular lens, press and release the POWER

button once to turn it on, align the reticle over the object you want distance to, and

press again to fire. Within the display is a “Firing Indicator” letting you know the laser

is firing. At extended distances holding FIRE button might be required.

FOCUS:

Adjust the diopter focus until the image is sharp.

GETTING STARTED:

ADJUSTING THE EYECUP:

The eyecup on the RF.1 twists in and out so any user can see the full field of view and

enjoy comfortable viewing and ranging with or without glasses. For best viewing without

glasses we recommend twisting the eyecup such that it is fully extended. For best

viewing with glasses, twist the eyecup down.

REPLACING BATTERY:

To replace the battery, remove the battery cap by

lifting the battery tab. Twist counter clock-wise to

open the battery compartment and insert CR2

battery with positive end facing outwards. Once

installed, reinstall battery cap and ensure it is

threaded tightly.

1. Unlike mankind, not all objects are created equal.

a. Some objects are more reflective than others.

b. Larger and more reflective objects are easier to detect.

c. Objects that are lighter in color are generally easier to acquire than dark objects.

2. Rain, snow and fog are not a laser’s friend.

a. This type of precipitation hinders ranging performance. In these conditions laser

will produce a more accurate reading in Forest mode.

b. Ranging in cloudy conditions can improve ranging performance; bright sunshine

can decrease ranging performance.

c. Ranging over a reflective body of water can cause inaccurate readings.

d. Flat and perpendicular surfaces reflect better than curved or angled surfaces.

3. Can’t get a reading (horizontal hash marks instead of distance)?

a. Press and hold the FIRE button while holding the reticle on the target. Ensure that the

FIRE button is not released before a distance is displayed.

b. Use the SCAN feature and technique. With the laser on, view through the eyepiece

and align the aiming reticle onto the object and press and hold the FIRE button and

move the laser slowly over the object until distance is displayed.

NOTE:

The RF.1 is designed to reach highly reflective targets out to 4500 yards. If a reading is not

displayed, target may not be within the distance threshold, or the size, color, and reflectivity

needed to provide an accurate reading.

CLEANING:

1. Remove as much dust and dirt as possible from the lenses with ablower or bristled

brush.

2. Apply a few drops of lens cleaning solution to a lens tissue or microfiber cleaning

cloth. Ensure that the cleaning cloth is free from dirt and grit so as not to scratch the

lenses. NEVER use a t-shirt, facial tissue or heavy cotton cloth on your lenses as they

can scratch the lenses.

3. Using a circular motion, gently remove oil, fingerprints, and grime from the lens

surface, working from the center outward.

4. For cleaning and disinfecting surfaces other than glass, spray a microfiber cloth with

Lysol spray and wipe down product or use a disinfectant wipe (e.g. Lysol, Clorox,

CaviWipes).

STORAGE:

When your RF.1 is not in use for over 3 months, we recommend removing the battery and

storing your RF.1 in a dry location at room temperature.
