LAM consists of three laser emitters – IR aimer (4, Fig. 1), visible aimer (5, Fig.1) and IR illuminator (7, Fig. 1) – combined in one housing (3, Fig. 1) with interaxis distance of 44.8 millimeters. LAM is powered by a lithium battery (CR123 type). The battery is installed between aimer and illuminator and covered with battery compartment cover (6, Fig.1), which is attached to the housing by a rubber band. The junction of battery compartment cover (6, Fig. 1) and housing (3, Fig. 1) i

High power mode is a health hazard! Lock switch (15, Fig.2) with blocking ring (12, Fig.2) when you do not intend using LAM in high power mode. Use filter with the Red Channel in the training mode LAM can be turned on either with a switch (13, Fig. 2) or with a remote control pressure switch, when it is connected through the remote control connector (16, Fig. 2).

The shooter should estimate the distance and determine the shift of the aimer spot in accordance with the correction table. Use illuminator when light conditions do not allow seeing the target in night vision goggles, rifle scope or monocular. There is no need to adjust LAM each time it is remounted on the sam
