Initial InstallationA first-time installation typically takes about 20 minutes or less. Subsequent installations and battery replacements can be accomplished in less than a minute. We at LaserMax always strive to bring you superior technology. Please let us know what you think of your LaserMax Guide Rod Laser by taking a moment to fill out your registration. Again, thank you from all of us at LaserMax.

BatteriesReplacements are available from your dealer or direct from us. DO NOT remove the shrink wrap from the LaserMax battery packs (four Energizer 377 or equivalent batteries may be used).

For longer battery life, avoid getting finger oils on the battery contact surfaces. Operating temperature range for batteries is from 14 degrees F to 120 degrees F. LaserMax recommends keeping a fresh set of batteries for carry and using older batteries for practice.

Troubleshooting

Review installation instructions and install a second time to eliminate human error. Pull slide back and allow it to slam forward two or three times to ensure contact.

Check batteries. Is the + side up? Are they clean and free from oil? If using loose batteries, is the + side up on all of them?

Initial InspectionIf the shipping package is severely damaged, notify the carrier immediately for insurance purposes.

InstallationThe LaserMax Guide Rod Laser is designed to be used with the Springfield Armory firearm, lubricated exactly as described in the current version of the Springfield Armory Owner’s Manual. Excess lubricant can interfere with the proper function of both the firearm and the Guide Rod Laser, as can inadequate lubricant.

Field Strip Your FirearmPlease refer to your SPRINGFIELD Armory owners manual for instructions on field stripping and firearms safety.

Remove Factory Takedown LeverRemoving the factory lever and installing ours both require substantial force. TOOLS SHOULD NOT BE USED. Remove the factory takedown lever from frame by twisting it counter-clockwise while pulling the lever away from the frame until switch pulls out (figure 1). Store with factory guide rod for future use.

Install the LaserMax Takedown Lever/Activation SwitchInsert the LaserMax lever/switch with the “flag” pointing at the 3:00 position. Firmly push in towards the frame while twisting counter-clockwise to 12:00, then to 9:00, then back to 12:00 and push in on switch to lock it in and make it flush with the frame (figure 2). The XDM 4.5” takedown activation switch will click into position when properly seated. The XD 3” will seat itself when properly installed.

Test the action of the new laser switch. For the XD 3”, push the switch in towards the frame. There will be a ‘click’ felt when the switch is in the ‘on’ position. Test both directions as the switch is ambidextrous. For the XDM 4.5”, rotate the teardrop shaped lever 90°. You will feel a distinct ‘click’ when the lever has been properly rotated.

Installing batteries and battery capXDM 4.5”Gently pop the cap off the laser tube to expose the batteries.

Replace batteries with a new set. Make sure the flat inscribed end (+) of the batteries is facing toward you.

If the sight has to be returned for repair, call our Warranty Department for a return authorization number BEFORE sending the sight. LaserMax will not be responsible for items returned without authorization. Do not return any parts or accessories not requested by the Warranty Department.

Cleaning and MaintenanceThe window on the muzzle end of laser may become smoked-over during firing. To clean, MAKE SURE PISTOL IS UNLOADED AND THE LASER IS OFF. Clean window with lens cleaner or alcohol on a cotton swab.

Infrared gunsights are regulated by the US Department of State in accordance with the export control guidelines in the International Traffic in Arms (ITAR) per title 22, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 120-130.
