...and dirt and sand
can scratch lenses
Cleaning
The goggles must be protected
against dirt, dust, fingerprints and ex-
cessive moisture.
Dirt and sand can cause the carriage
to stick, jam the focus rings and scratch
the lens. Careful and prompt cleaning
will save you heartache later.
If you’re working in a dusty or sandy
environment, attach the sacrificial win-
dow, NSN 5855-01-246-8271, to pro-
tect the objective lens from scratches
or other damage.
Three Important NSNs
Use NSN 5855-01-441-0401 or
5855-01-421-7691 to get the universal
mount that holds your night vision
goggles on your Kevlar helmet.
Start by sliding the carriage forward
as far as you can. Then brush the slide
bars with lens brush, NSN 7920-00-
205-0565.
Turn the focus rings until the objec-
tive and eyepiece lens assemblies are
completely extended. Using the brush,
sweep the exposed plastic clean.
Brush dirt and dust off the lenses,
then clean them with lens tissue, NSN
6640-00-459-4239, and distilled water.
Focus ring can jam.
