Focusing the reticle

Focusing the reticle is done by turning the eyepiece. (1).

We recommend making this adjustment with a higher magnification level. The reticle then remains in sharp focus over the entire range of magnification.

Please note that simultaneous focusing of the reticle and the image at high magnifications and distances significantly less than or more than 100 m is not possible with ZEISS Conquest V6 series riflescopes, because these are tuned parallax-free to 100 m.

We recommend using a lower magnification setting for distances significantly less than 100 m.

Note: A rubber ring (2) is attached to the eyepiece mount.

Changing the magnification

All magnifications, from the lowest to highest magnification level, allow infinitely variable setting. Change of magnification is done by turning the changer (3) on the eyepiece support. The magnification levels are marked by numbers and markings.

Note: When using at dusk or at night:

Turn left as far as possible – maximum magnification

Turn right as far as possible – minimum magnification.

The middle magnification is set when the cam of the magnification changer is pointing upward.

Inserting/removing the battery

To change the battery (model CR 2032), turn the cover (4) to the left (counterclockwise). The battery is inserted with the positive pole pointed up. Then screw the cover (4) back on. Make sure it is seated properly and check the condition of the sealing ring. Replace the sealing ring if it is damaged.

Note: If the riflescope is not used for an extended period of time, remove the battery.

Reticle illumination

Illumination is turned on by pulling out the adjustment knob (5). Turning the knob to the right (clockwise) increases brightness. Turning to the left (counterclockwise) reduces brightness. Control is infinitely variable up to a preset minimum or maximum and has no mechanical stop. Push in the knob in the direction of the riflescope housing to switch it off. When the brightness is adjusted to the corresponding surrounding conditions, the illumination can be switched off. The set brightness is now saved, even if the adjustment knob (5) is turned to the off position. When turned back on, illumination returns to the previously set brightness. If the reticle illumination adjustment knob is not activated for three hours when in the turned on position, the illumination switches off automatically. Low battery charge is indicated by the reticle lamp flashing.

The flashing can be suppressed if desired: Push in the adjustment knob and pull out again immediately (within 2 seconds). By using this cancellation process the reticle illumination can be used until final failure without further flashing. After a battery change or switching off the illumination, the warning flashing function is reactivated.

ZEISS Conquest V6 riflescopes are fitted with a motion sensor to protect the battery and extend its service life. This automatically identifies the position of the weapon and switches off the light spot if pointed at a lateral angle of 45^ or an angle of 70^ below or above. As soon as the weapon is lifted to fire a shot, the light spot automatically illuminates at the pre-set level of brightness.

This feature can be deactivated, or activated, by turning the rillescope 180° on its head and pressing the adjusting button (5) three consecutive times and then immediately releasing. The light will flash three times for confirmation.

Note: Even if the angle is switched off, the 3-hour standby will apply. In other words, the riflescope will not switch back on after 3 hours in a tilted position.

Basic mounting setting

To ensure that the weapon and rifle scope work together perfectly as a single unit, the rifle scope should always be mounted by a qualified gunsmith. Eye injury, caused by recoil of the weapon, can be avoided by proper mounting with the correct eye relief. The correct eye relief also guarantees a complete field of vision.

Adjusting the ZEISS Conquest V6 riflescope to the weapon

Adjusting the ZEISS Conquest V6 nflscope to the weapon, i.e. correction of deviations for the point of impact, is simplified by the click-catch in the elevation and windage adjustment of the reticle. Proceed as follows:

a) After unscrewing the protective lens cap (6 or 7) the reticle can be adjusted by turning the adjustment knob (8) in elevation and (9) windage.
For ZEISS Conquest V6 series riflescopes, 1 click corresponds to an adjustment of 1 cm to 100 m.
If the weapon shoots low, it requires a shot correction upward (direction "H"), corresponding to one clockwise turn of the adjustment knob (8).
If the weapon shoots high, it requires a shot correction downward, corresponding to one counterclockwise turn of the adjustment knob (8). If the weapon shoots left, it requires a shot correction to the right (direction "R"), corresponding to one clockwise turn of the adjustment knob (9). If the weapon shoots right, it requires a shot correction left, corresponding to a counterclockwise turn of the adjustment knob (9).
b) After shooting, pull the knob (8 or 9) upward out of the catch and set the zero mark of the sub-ring (10) on the index mark (11). Press the knob (8 or 9) downward into the catch.
The index is used to again find the original location when adjusting the reticle later (for other distances or other loads).
c) Do not forget: Screw the protective lens cap (6 or 7) back on.

Note: When the ZEISS Conquest V6 series riflescope is delivered, the reticle is set to the middle of the adjustment range and the zero mark of the adjusting ring (10) to the indexmark (11). From this initial setting, an upward, downward, right or left adjustment is possible for more than half of the adjustment ranges given in the following table.

The ZEISS Conquest V6 riflescopes are designed so that when the reticle is adjusted, even a corresponding movement of the reticle to the centre of the image is not noticeable. The reticle always remains in the centre of the image during all adjustments.

Bullet drop compensation feature (BDC/ASV) for ZEISS CONQUEST V6 riflescope

If your ZEISS CONQUEST V6 riflescope is fitted with a bullet drop compensation feature, you have the option of staying on the spot quickly and easily at a range of distances. The bullet drop is compensated in line with the distance by adjusting the sight line of the riflescope without removing the protective cap from the bullet drop compensation feature.

The rotary knob (13) has a linear graduation of 1 to 75. The distance between each graduation is equivalent to 1 click, with 1 cm equivalent to 100 m. Each tenth graduation is labelled with a number between 10 and 70.

A ratchet prevents unintended adjustment.

If the ballistic values for an accurate aiming at 100 m are known, the number of required clicks can be directly calculated and noted for the various distances.

Table 1 provides nine different ballistic curves for this.

Note: A limit stop in the bullet drop compensation feature prevents adjustment below the "0" mark.

Firing the weapon with the bullet drop compensation feature (BDC/ASV): The following procedure should be followed to adjust a shot:

ASV I Remove screw (12) and adjusting button (13).

ASV II Pull driver (16) from the catch and turn (180°) clockwise. It is now possible to make a downwards correction directly using the driver (16).

ASV III If the weapon shoots too low, the shot must be adjusted upwards (direction "H"), which is equivalent to rotating the driver (16) clockwise.

If the weapon shoots too high, the shot must be adjusted downwards, which is equivalent to rotating the driver (16) anti-clockwise.

Once the weapon has fired at 100 m:

ASV IV Lift driver (16) out of the catch and position so that the stop pin (17) of the driver (16) sits on the stop pin (18) of the stop ring (19), as shown in Fig. (20).

ASV V Position the adjusting button (13) so that the "0" mark corresponds with the index markings on the stop ring (14). Ensure that the O-ring does not become damaged. Use the screw (12) to relighten the adjusting button (13).

Seal integrity

The riflescope is waterproof, pressure tested to ISO 9022-80 and filled with nitrogen. The integrity of the seal is also guaranteed if the protective lens caps (13 or 15) of the reticle adjustment are not screwed on. However, always ensure a good seat of these protective lens caps (13 or 15) and the sealing ring under them.

Reticle

Your riflescope is equipped with the reticle of your choice. For the ZFISS Conquest V6 models the reticle is in the second level. The reticle is not magnified during magnification change, but rather it always remains the same. Thus for these rillescopes the dimension of change of the reticle is dependent on the magnification.

Reticle retrofitting

The ZEISS Conquest V6 riflescope can of course also be retrofitted with other available reticles. For reticle retrofitting, please send the riflescope to our customer service.

Care and maintenance

Your riflescope has ZEISS LotuTec coating. The effective protective coating for the lens surfaces noticeably reduces contamination of the lenses through an especially smooth surface and the resulting water-beading effect. All types of contamination stick less and can be quickly and easily removed without smearing. LotuTec coating is durable and abrasion-resistant.

Your ZEISS riflescope requires no special maintenance. Do not wipe coarse particles (e.g. sand) from the lenses. Blow them off, or use a soft brush! Over time, fingerprints can corrode the lens surface. Breathing on the lens and polishing with a clean optical cleansing cloth/tissue is the easiest method of cleaning the lens surface.

To avoid a possible fungal coating which is common in the tropics, store the optics in a dry place and always ensure good aeration of the lens surface.

Replacement parts for ZEISS Conquest V6

If you need any replacement parts for your riflescope, e.g. protective lens caps, please contact your local dealer, your country's distributor or our customer service team.

Our customer service team is available from Monday to Friday from 8:00 am until 6:00 pm (CET) should you have any questions.
