It shouldn't be that hard to figure out, lay it down, and select the range you want, stand it up to go beyond that.

The following describes the earlier Springfield 1903 rear sight. This explanation applies closely to your situation as well. The 1903 rear sight system is probably the ultimate in this type of rear sight. When the sight ladder lays flat, it is in the normal "battle sight" position. When raised, it is usually used for deliberate aimed fire at longer ranges. The skill comes in when to use the appropriate distance scales and appertures. Your sight might be simpler, but the same principles apply.
