Using The Install/Removal Tool - American Dynamics SpeedDome Ultra VII EIS Installation And Service Manual

Using the Install/Removal
Tool
CAUTION: Do not use this tool to connect the
dome to the standard base (without I/O board)
Used only when the dome is connected to a base
having an I/O board, the RHIRT install/removal tool
eliminates the need for a ladder during routine
service. The tool can be used to:
• Detach skirt or bubble from housing, if used.
The skirt or bubble remains attached to the
housing during service.
• Connect/Disconnect dome from base with I/O
board.
• Reattach skirt or bubble.
Telescopic Pole Required to Use Tool
The tool attaches to a telescopic pole that is similar to
the type used to clean swimming pools. The pole should
be 5 feet-5 inches to 15 feet-5 inches long and have a
1.170 -inch inside diameter to accept the 1.125-inch
diameter stem of the tool. If this pole cannot be obtained
locally, contact the following manufacturer:

Procedure
Referring to Figure 21, maneuver the stem of the
tool into the top of the pole until it snaps in place.
TO ATTACH SKIRT OR BUBBLE:
Use the tool to push up on the bubble to secure it
in place. Magnets secure the bubble. Lower the
pole.
TO DETACH SKIRT OR BUBBLE:
Lifting the pole up at an angle, use one of the
hooks on the tool to catch one of the notches at the
side of the dome and pull down. The T-lanyard will
prevent the skirt or bubble from falling.
