Assembling the Excalibur

Please follow these simple instructions to assemble your new Excalibur. Refer
to the drawings to identify parts and how they are positioned. If you have any
difficulties, call your dealer for more instructions.
Armrest / Upper Shaft Assembly
a) Remove the black nylon bolt and nut (2) from the armrest (1).
b) With the armrest's larger fins pointing in the same direction as the foam
handgrip (4), slide the armrest (1) onto the end of the upper metal shaft
(3).
c) Push the nylon bolt (2) through the holes and tighten the wing-nut by hand.
d) The control cylinder (5) and battery pod (6) should already be clipped onto
the upper shaft. If not, then first clip the control cylinder onto the shaft.
Ensure that the headphone cable (7) is pointing toward the armrest.
e) Clip the battery pod onto the shaft, ensuring that the plug (8) is facing
away from the armrest.
f) Connect the battery cable from the control cylinder to the battery pod. The
connection uses a water exclusion seal that needs to be firmly tightened by
hand, otherwise water may enter the connection causing instability and
corrosion of contacts, and voiding the warranty.
Land and Wader's Mode
a) Remove the tape on the long fiberglass tube (9) that is holding the black
teardrop washers (10) in place.
NOTE:
Make sure that the washers do not fall out after removing the tape.
b) Remove the black nylon nut, washer, and bolt (11) from the coil (12).
c) With the teardrop washers in place, push the lower tube assembly into
the bracket on the coil so that the holes line up.
NOTE:
Ensure that the spring clip near the top of the fiberglass tube is pointing
toward the rear of the coil.
