Ikelite 6147.89 Instruction page 7

Lubricants
1. Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing. We recommend
you use only Ikelite lubricant on Ikelite products 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.
CAUTION
Never use spray lubricants as the propellant ingredient can
cause the plastic housing to crack.
