Lens Ports - Ikelite 6871.08 Instruction Manual

Installing the Port
To Remove Port
To remove the port, lift up on each Release Button and slide the port
lock away from the port.
Port Seal Inside View
If the port is installed before the camera is
inserted into the housing, look from the
inside of the housing at the port seal.
Check to see that the o-ring is properly
seated as shown in figure 1 and not
extruded as shown in figure 2.
Caution:
After installing the lens and port, turn the Zoom Control knob on the
housing. If the Zoom Control is difficult to turn, the gear sleeve may be
warped. If necessary, reduce or omit any rubber installed on the Zoom
Clamp, figure F, page 16. If the Zoom Clamp is still warped, use of the
5509.28 package may be required, see page 14

Lens Ports

A lens port must be secured to the housing before entering the water.
Ikelite DSLR housings DO NOT come with a lens port. You must select
the correct port for each lens you will be using underwater. To assure
water-tightness, submerge the housing with port attached into a bathtub
or shallow water without the camera installed. This will confirm correct
installation of the port to the housing. For complete lens port information
and compatibility with your Ikelite system, go to www.ikelite.com.
