Bushnell ET1626 Instruction Manual

To mount the Bushnell ET1626 Scope, ensure your rifle is unloaded. Use appropriate scope rings that fit the diameter of the scope tube. Securely attach the rings to the mounting base on your rifle, align the scope to your desired eye relief, and tighten the screws evenly to avoid misalignment.
To sight in your Bushnell ET1626, set up a target at 100 yards. Use a stable rest, align the reticle with the center of the target, and fire a three-shot group. Adjust the windage and elevation turrets based on the group’s impact point until the scope is accurately zeroed.
Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a lens cleaning brush to gently remove dust. Apply a small amount of lens cleaning solution to a microfiber cloth and gently wipe the lenses in a circular motion to prevent streaks or scratches.
Internal fogging may indicate a seal failure. Store the scope in a dry environment and contact Bushnell customer service for repair or replacement options, as this is not a typical user-serviceable issue.
The Bushnell ET1626 features an adjustable magnification ring located near the eyepiece. Rotate the ring to your desired magnification level, ensuring the image remains sharp and in focus.
Ensure the eyepiece is focused by adjusting the diopter setting. Check for lens obstructions or smudges and clean if necessary. Verify that the scope is properly mounted and that there is no excessive parallax error.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the lenses and checking for tightness in mounting screws. Conduct these checks before each use or at least every few months, depending on usage frequency.
Zero shift can be caused by loose mounting components, temperature changes, or accidental turret adjustments. Regularly check the tightness of the mounts and re-zero if necessary.
Yes, the Bushnell ET1626 is designed to be both waterproof and fog-proof, featuring O-ring seals and nitrogen purging to prevent moisture ingress.
Store the scope in a cool, dry place, preferably in a padded case. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve the integrity of the seals and optical coatings.
