This light coating of lubricant
will help to keep the o’ring from drying out and will help to show
a dark sealing line when the housing back is properly sealed
Keep the area where the o’ring fits and the sealing surface
of the housing clean
Rinse the housing exterior thoroughly in fresh water after each
salt water use Dry with a soft cloth Dry lens port to eliminate
water spotting
After several uses in salt water soak the housing in a mild soap
solution rinse and dry before storage When storing the housing
remove the back o’ring lightly lubricate and place in a plastic bag
Place the plastic bag with o’ring inside the housing for safe keeping

Ikelite controls are designed to provide years of reliable service
with minimal maintenance
Push button controls require no maintenance other than rinsing
in fresh water after saltwater use If a push button control
becomes difficult to push or if it sticks when depressed soak
the housing in lukewarm fresh water After a few minutes
operate the push button If this does not correct the problem
return the housing to Ikelite for maintenance
Some of the controls have long shafts These controls can be
pulled out exposing the shaft (see drawing)
Some of the controls have a short shaft and cannot be pulled
out exposing the shaft for lubrication In the unlikely event one
of these controls sticks or becomes difficult to operate you can
remove the control from the housing and lubricate it or return
the housing to Ikelite for maintenance To remove the control
loosen the set screw in the knob (allen wrench required); remove
the knob If there is salt or dirt buildup on the exposed control
shaft clean the shaft Open the housing and gently slide the
control shaft out of the control gland Clean and lightly lubricate
the shaft including the end of the shaft Slide the shaft back into
the control gland and gently slide it back and forth a few times
without fully removing the shaft from the gland Replace the
knob NOTE the flat area on the shaft the set screw in the knob
should tighten down against the flat area on the control so the
knob does not turn on the shaft
