Installing the Handstrap

Note:
An elastic hand strap is available for the MX8. Once installed, the handstrap provides a means for
the user to secure the computer to their hand. It is adjustable to fit practically any size hand and is
easily moved to allow installation or removal of the battery pack.
Note:
Tool Required: #1 Phillips Screwdriver (not supplied by LXE)
Installation
1. Place the MX8, with the screen facing down, on a flat stable surface.
2. Attach the handstrap retainer bracket to the MX8 with the screws provided.
3. Slip the Handstrap Clip into the bracket at the base of the MX8.
4. Making sure the closed loop fastener surfaces on the handstrap are facing up, slide the strap
through the pin in the retainer bracket and the clip.
5. Fold each end of the the strap over so that the closed loop fastener surfaces mate evenly.
6. Test the strap's connection making sure the MX8 is securely connected to each end of the
strap connectors.
Check the closed loop fastener, retainer bracket and clip connections frequently. If they have
loosened, they must be tightened before the MX8 is placed into service again. If the handstrap gets
worn or damaged, it must be replaced.
MX8 Reference Guide
The handstrap cannot be used/installed when the MX8 has the trigger handle installed at
the same time.
Loosen the top strap of the handstrap to allow access to the battery well.
