Is your QuikFinder DOA or not working upon arrival?
We inspect each and every Rigel QuikFinder upon receipt from the company. We test to make sure that it lights up and that the reticle pattern is roughly centered. If you receive a unit that does not seem to be working, please perform the following steps before contacting us for a replacement.
1. First, make sure that you are looking at the finder from the correct side! Hold the QuikFinder up close to your eye with the knobs AWAY from you and look into the side just above the molded-in word QuikFinder. You'd be surprised by how many people do not check both sides before reporting a problem.
Next, make sure that you are placing your eye right behind the Rigel Quikfinder. Many people place their eye at a distance (as in the Telrad) and can't see the reticle pattern.
2. Still doesn't work? Here's how to check the included batteries before you try to replace them. This is best done at night or in a dark room.
- Remove the QuikFinder from its base plate and insert the button battery small end first (the + sign should be visible).
- Turn the small white knob on the front all the way counter-clockwise.
- Turn the black knob all the way clockwise.
- Looking at the bottom of the circuit board, do you see a red glow? If you do, this confirms that the LED and battery are working. In this case, if you do not see the reticle pattern, it may have moved off-center during shipping and simply needs to be adjusted and brought back to the center using the three centering knobs.
If you've tried the above as well as a fresh set of batteries, and if the finder still does not work, please let us know.
