Focus

Use the focus knob to achieve a sharp
image. Turn knob left or right until
image is as sharp as possible.

Centering Screws

The windage and elevation centering screws can be used to
help center the red dot in the VMX3s field of view. After the
VMX3 is mounted in front of red dot scope, the dot may seem
off-centered while viewing through the VMX3. This will not
affect the point-of-impact. If desired, the centering screws can
be used to move the dot up/down or left/right until the dot is
more centered. Do not force screws once resistance is felt and the

end-of-travel range has been reached.

Note: Perfectly centering the red dot in the VMX3 is not required for

accuracy. Once the primary red dot optic has been sighted in using its own

adjustments, adjustments done to the VMX3 using the centering screws

will not affect the point-of-impact.
