Before installing the camera, pull out on the controls in the front
section of the housing. This will allow the camera to slide in more
easily. Once the camera is installed, close the lid snaps and return
the controls to their operating position.

1. Place housing face down in your lap.
2. Check to see that there is an
o’ring on the housing back and
that it is clean, and in its proper
location.
3. Guide the back into the housing
front. The o’ring should touch
the housing all the way around.
There should be an even gap all
the way around between the
housing and the housing back.
4. Lift the lid snaps so they are
extended and place the lid snap
i
nto the hook on the housing
back.
5. To close the housing, push
down on the lid snaps until
they snap into place and lock.
Lid snaps on opposite sides of the
housing should be closed at the
same time. Be sure they are
down far enough to engage the
lock.

- Once the housing is closed, check the o’ring seal.
Check the gap between the housing back and the housing, it
should be even all the way around.
Look through the clear plastic back at the o’ring. You should see
a darkened area where the o’ring is compressed against the
housing back. If you do not see an even black compression seal
all the way around the back, open the lid snaps, reseat the
housing back and close the lid snaps. Visually check the seal again.

The Zoom Clamp has springs so it can be expanded to fit over
the Zoom Ring of the lens as shown in
((FFiigg.. CC))
. Install the Zoom
Clamp with the extension tabs toward the rear element of the
lens. After installing the Zoom Clamp and Gear Sleeve
((FFiigg.. DD &&
EE))
, install the Lens Port and rotate the Zoom Ring on the lens.
If the Zoom Ring and Gear Sleeve do not mesh properly, install
the rubber strips (supplied) to the inside diameter of the Zoom
Clamp as shown
((FFiigg.. FF))
. Two thicknesses of rubber strips are
provided. Start by installing the thinnest rubber strips. If the
Zoom Clamp still is not tight enough, use the thicker rubber
strips. Reinstall the Zoom Clamp, Sleeve, and Port.
