Dear EditoR
The gasket for the ANVS-4 night vision sight's car±ying case
doesn²t stick around long. The gasket is just Ftted into the case
channel³ It doesn´t take much for the gasket to come out³ .
. and then
itµs gone. ¶t isn´t stocked in the supplY sYstem, either.
Without the gasket· the case isn't watertight. Moisture collects in
the case and causes mildew¸ ¹o gasket also means the sight is loose
and unprotected as welL. Without the gasket· the case can falL open
and the sight takes a tumble³ That can blind a sightº
The best waY to hang onto the
»¼½¾:¿ÀÁÂÃ
gasket is to glue it in the case
channel with silicone adhesiveÄ
¹S¹ 8040Å00Æ843Ç0802³ Just put
a few drops of adhesive around
the channel and stick the gasket
in placeº

ÏolL up
the tape untiL it´s the
thickness of the gasket.
Wedge it into the
gasket channel. Tape
over the tape to keep it
in place. Do this on alL four sides of the case³ The tape will give the
case enough tightness to seal out water and hold the sight tightÐ
