It is recommended that you take the complete system into

a swimming pool before use in open water. This will give you

a chance to become familiar with the handling and operation

of your housing and strobe(s).

The buoyancy of the system will depend on the size and

number of strobes used as well as the weight of the camera.

Ideally the system should be slightly negative in the

environment in which it will be used. If you need to add weight

to the system, an optional lead weight is available. To add the

lead weight, remove the (2) screws from the bottom of the

aluminum tray. Place the lead weight into the pocket of the

aluminum tray and reattach.

While both the Port and Back o'rings should last quite some time

it is best to carry a spare in case one becomes damaged or lost.

When the housing is going to be stored for a prolonged period,

it should be soaked in a mild soap solution, rinsed, and dried

thoroughly. Remove the back and port from the housing.

Remove the back and port o'rings, lightly lubricate them and

place them in a plastic zip-lock bag. Place the plastic bag inside

the housing for storage. Operate the push buttons periodically.

This housing offers two types of arm mounting systems. The

top of the rubber handles utilize Ikelite's Quick-Release Arm,

available with the SA-1 00R Arm system.

The bottom of the rubber handles have a wing nut that accepts

the Ikelite Tray Mount. The Tray Mount comes with the Ikelite

SA-1 25 Arm system and the SA-1 00T Arm system.

1 . Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing. We

recommend that you use only Ikelite lubricant as some other

brands may cause the o'ring to swell and not seal properly.

2. Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover control shafts and

o'rings. Wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth.

Lubricant is not a sealant, it is used to reduce friction. Excessive

lubricant can collect sand and dirt which may interfere with

proper sealing.
