MOUNTING THE RIFLESCOPE

Follow the steps below to correctly mount your ThOR 6 mini Compact Thermal Riflescope using the supplied QD (Quick-Detach) mount. The QD mount secures to the rifle rail with two bolts and locks with quick-release levers for fast, repeatable installation and removal.

Steps

1. Prepare the QD mount

  • Check the provided Picatinny QD mount and the screws for mechanical damage.
  • Use the two provided with the mount screws to attach the ThOR 6 mini to the QD mount. The orientation must be such that the mount is protruding forward to the objective lens of the thermal sight.
  • Make sure the conic heads of the screws are lying in their beds in the mount properly and tighten the two screws.
  • Open the QD levers so the mount can be placed on the Picatinny rail of the weapon platform.
  • Ensure the two mounting bolts with the quick-release levers are loosely installed so that the mount can sit fully on the upper surface of the teeth of the Picatinny rail of the weapon platform.

2. Position the ThOR 6 mini

Place the ThOR 6 mini together with the assembled QD mount and move it to the desired fore/aft position on the weapon platform Picatinny rail for the desired eye relief and balance.

3. Attach assembly to the Picatinny rail

  • Place the mount assembly onto the rifle rail at the chosen position.
  • Close the QD quick-release levers to lock the mount onto the rail.
  • Check if the lever tension needs adjustment. It should be moving freely about 60% of the travel from open to closed position. The tension needs to increase in the last 30-40% of movement to the fully closed position.
  • If it is too loose or too tight — open the levers and push them in, so that their threaded nuts pop out from the opposite side of the QD mount.
  • With the nuts popped out — rotate them CW or CCW to tighten or loosen them. Then release the pressure from the lever side so they can sink back into their nests.

4. Final alignment and tightening

  • With the levers closed and the QD mount tightened to the rail of the weapon platform, ensure the riflescope is level.
  • Confirm the QD levers are firmly closed, locked and the mount is securely fixed.

DEVICE OPERATION

POWER SUPPLY

The ThOR 6 mini Compact Thermal Riflescope is powered by a single removable 18650 rechargeable battery (included in the package).

The device can also be powered or charged directly through the USB Type-C port.

NOTE:
• When connecting external power via Type-C, the device can operate and charge simultaneously. • Always ensure the battery is fully charged before extended use in the field.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY

  1. Open the cover of the battery compartment located on the right side of the riflescope.
  2. Insert the provided 18650 rechargeable battery, ensuring it is installed according to the polarity markings on the device housing.
  3. Close the battery compartment cover securely.
TIP
Use only high-quality, button-top 18650 batteries to ensure stable contact and reliable power supply.

CHARGING THE DEVICE

You can charge the riflescope through the Type-C port using the included data cable.

The battery level indicator is displayed on the status bar when the device is powered on. Charge the unit promptly when the level is low to ensure proper operation.

Charging Guidelines:

  • Maintain a battery temperature between 32°F and 140°F during charging.
  • Always use the original charging cable supplied with the device.

Charging Steps:

  • Open the rubber cover protecting the Type-C port.
  • Connect the provided Type-C cable to the port and a power source.

Charging Indicator States:

  • Red and green flashing alternately – Charging error.
