APPLICATION  
Our new Aries 390 “Paladin” is the best 1st  
generation scope on the market.  
Do you want the best NVD weapon sight  
on the market? If so then our new Aries  
6900/7900/8900 “Crusader” is for you.  
It doesn’t get any better then the Crusader  
when it comes to performance. For the Cru-  
sader we use a top of the line “Prime Select”  
light intensifier tube for added light gain and  
resolution. Combine this select tube with 5x  
magnification and a super fast F:1.4 lens the  
image that you will get out of your Crusader  
is unbelievable.  
We started by improving the optical configu-  
rations with lowered F-stop factors (from 1.7  
on previous models to 1.4(!) on new) and  
optical resolution that is beyond current  
military standards (old 45lp/mm and the  
new is 60lp/mm). This provides you with the  
brightest and clearest image in a 1st gen unit.  
Then we added our precision “red on green”  
aiming system, easy push button operation,  
reticle brightness adjustment and our new  
detachable, most powerful in the industry  
450mw Infrared Illuminator with dedicated  
windage and elevation adjustments.  
The best optics, tubes and 3 year warranty  
makes the Aries 6900/7900/8900 Crusader  
one of the best Night Vision weapon sights  
there is!

• Make sure that the green luminance of the  
light intensifier tube is present.

OPERATING  
MOUNTING  
BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT  
1. Slightly loosen the horizontal and vertical  
fixing screws on the 7/8” weaver rail built  
into the scope.  
By rotating the “R” handle you may adjust  
the reticle’s brightness. Adjustment could  
be easily seen if you look trought the scope  
while adjustement.  
2. Place the scope on the dovetail mount of  
the fire arm making certain that the mount  
aligns with the receptor attachment screw  
groove. Adjust as necessary.  
3. Tighten the horizontal fixing screws.  
NOTE: Receptor attachment screws may need  
to be tightened after continuous shooting.

MOUNTING SYSTEM  
The ATN Night Vision Riflescopes Mounting  
System allows to change the position of the  
riflescope flexibly on the weapon in relation to  
a shooter in combination with the fixed posi-  
tions already available on the weaver rail.  
For this purpose in the base of the mounting  
bracket there is a rail with a fixing projection.  
There are three grooves in the mounting  
bracket for mounting this rail. Besides it is  
possible to change the position of the rifle-  
scope additionally by 1/3 of inch. For doing  
this one needs to about-face the rail.  
WINDAGE AND ELEVATION  
The vertical and horizontal adjustments for  
the Aries can be achieved by turning the  
elevation and windage adjustment mecha-  
nisms (remove dust caps first). Each click  
equals to 1/8 inches at 100 yards. When  
reaching the maximum of rotation do not  
use force.

FOCUSING  
Grooves  
Weaver rail  
To focus your riflescope you will need to  
adjust the diopter first thing. Simply turn the  
diopter clockwise until it stops. Then, while  
looking through the diopter at a subject,  
slowly turn the diopter back counter clock-  
wise until the grain in the image is sharp.  
To change the position of the riflescope on  
the weaver rail additionally follow the steps  
mentioned below:  
1. Unscrew the two screws, which attach  
the rail to the mounting bracket.  
NOTE: We suggest that you focus the diopter  
during daylight with the filter on.  
2. Take the rail out of the groove.  
Next, focus the front lens until the image and  
the grain are both sharp. When you are in  
the low-light conditions and the daylight filter  
is off you may focus the front lens to receive  
a sharp image, the diopter should not be  
adjusted.  
3. About-face the rail in case of necessity.  
4. Place the rail into another groove.  
5. Fix the rail with the two screws.  
NOTE: If the rail is not taken out easily, screw  
up tight one of screws into the threaded aper-  
ture in the middle of a fixing projection of the  
rail. Continue rotation of the screw. Thus the  
screw will push out a rail from a groove.  
NOTE: The front lens should be readjusted as  
you view objects at different distances.

IR ILLUMINATOR  
Infra-red (IR) Illuminators are common for  
night vision technology. The IR light greatly  
enhances the performance of your Aries  
scope, while remaining almost totally invis-  
ible to the naked eye. In dark environment,  
power up the Aries scope. Now, find a scene  
and examine it without the IR on then with IR  
powered up. Note the difference in illumina-  
tion. It is important to remember that the IR  
illuminator is simply an infra red light source,  
and like any light source it may loose its  
effectiveness over a great distance.  
NOTE: The riflescope could be equipped with  
digitally controlled IR.  
The IR illuminator control buttons are  
located on its side. To switch the Digital IR  
illuminator on/off press “+” and “-” buttons  
simultaneously. When the IR illuminator is  
switched on you can see the green LED lit.  
By pushing the buttons “+” and “-” you may  
adjust the IR brightness.  
The IR beam is focusable to change the  
field of coverage. To change the beam width  
slightly turn the IR lens.  
To fix the IR Illuminator to the riflescope  
screw the thumb screw on the IR into the  
thread on the scope. To switch the IR on and  
to adjust the brightness rotate the rheostat  
located on the side of the Illuminator. The  
changes of adjustment could be observed  
while looking through the scope. The IR is  
off when the mark on the rheostat coincides  
with “0” on the scale.  
You could change the IR control panel fitting  
your needs. The screw-tool included into  
the set should be used for weakening the  
fixing screw located on the IR. Rotate the IR  
placing at in the most convenient position.  
Tighten the screw with the screw-tool to fix  
the new position.

RANGEFINDER RETICLE  
The range finder reticle in Aries 6900/7900/  
8900 was designed to assist you in deter-  
mining the range of your target.  
Aries 390 reticle gives a clearly aiming  
point, even when hard-to-see game blends  
into the background. Thinner posts and  
crosshairs center section covers a mini-  
mum of the target and allow for less target  
coverage, making precision shots on small  
targets easy.  
Heavy posts stand out against cover and  
leads your eye directly to the center inter-  
section. The result is fast precision aiming.  
These distances are based on a 6’ target.  
A 6’ target fits between the numbered base-  
line (the three short horizontal lines directly  
next to the numbers) and the main horizon-  
tal line. If the 6’ target fits between the 1 and  
the right horizontal post of the main line the  
target is 100 yards away. If the same target  
fits between the 2 and the right post of main  
line the target is 200 yards away. The same  
is with the three, the target is 300 yards  
away.  
The thin lines  
correspond to  
1.25 yards at 100  
yards distance  
If a 6’ target fits  
between these two  
lines then the target  
is 100 yards away  
If a 6’ target fits  
between these two  
lines then the target  
is 200 yards away

CLEANING THE EYEPIECE  
You may need to clean the eyepiece of the  
riflescope from time to time in order to guar-  
antee top performance. When you receive  
your riflescope you should check for dust on  
the eyepiece of the unit.  
NOTE: You do not have to remove the set  
screws completely, they are very small and  
easy to misplace.  
CAUTION: Use only Photographic lens clean-  
ing tissue on these surfaces. Be careful not  
to scratch or smudge any of these surfaces.  
When using compressed air to blow dust  
away, make sure to avoid inverting the can  
while spraying. This can cause frozen propel-  
lant to exit the can, which can cause serious  
problems with the glass and phosphor screen.  
First you will need to remove the eyepiece.  
To do that you will need to initially loosen the  
2 set screws that can be found on the base.  
Then unscrew the eyepiece counter-clock-  
wise to remove it.  
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS  
• Always remember to turn off the Aries  
scope when it is not in use. If you do not  
plan on using your aries scope for a period

source, turn the unit off and wait 1 - 2 min-  
utes before turning the unit back on.  
• Keep lens cap/daylight filter on when  
not in use.  
• Avoid contact with dust, steam, and gas.

effective viewing distance. All technical  
data for this unit was compiled in a control-  
led environment.  
• The Aries scope are not harmful to the user  
or the environment.  
• Do not disassemble except to clean the  
front lens and the eyepiece: it will void  
your warranty.  
• Evaluate the scopes function by looking  
through it in a lit environment with the  
daylight filter lens cap on. Never use in
