IF YOU MAKE UNAUTHORIZED ADJUSTMENTS! MADE ADJUSTMENTS, DIDN'T YOU! YES I DID! HEY CHARLIE WE GOT US ANOTHER ONE! GET YM! I'VE MADE A HUGE MISTAKE! THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD NEVER DO WITH YOUR ANVIS BINOCULARS. Things Not to Do * Don't pack the binoculars any way you want-it only causes problems. Always adjust the eye span knob(s) midway before inserting the objective lenses first into the foam inserts of the carrying case. Refer to the "Preparation for Movement" paragraph in the operator's manual for complete details. For the (V)I and (V)IA binoculars, follow TM 11-5855-263-10. For the (V)3 binocular, follow TM 11-5855-313-10. * Don't mess with the tamper mark on the binoculars once it's added after the first six-month service. That's off limits to you. * Don't swap binocular parts because once the binocular assembly has been opened, it must be purged before it can be used. * Don't accept the ANVIS if you can't see through the binoculars properly. AVIM will have to fix the problem. Don't do your own thing. * Don't try to fix your binoculars yourself, no matter how tempting or simple it appears. WHEN SIGNING OUT BINOCULARS, HERE'S WHAT YOU MUST DO BEFORE YOU SPLIT THE SCENE. Things to Do * Perform the operator's checks listed in Table 2-2 of the operator's manual. * Check for deep cracks in the binoculars. Surface cracks that do not affect performance are acceptable. * Make sure each objective lens turns freely through its full range of travel. * Make sure you don't use the objective lens assembly, PN A3279595, NSN NSN National Stock Number NSN Nokia Siemens Networks NSN National Storytelling Network NSN NATO Stock Number NSN New Substances Notification (CEPA) NSN National Student Number (NZ) NSN Never Say Never 5855-01-476-1481, on aircraft equipped with the ANVIS display symbology sym·bol·o·gy n. 1.
