3.
Install the secure string on the lens:
a.
Insert the secure string through the secure loop featured on the lens (image #5).
Pull it through itself and test it in order to make sure it is secure (image #6).
b.
It is recommended to attach the secure string of the lens to the housing, in order
to secure the lens. If making use of an arm in the system, secure strings can be
secured to the arm rather than to the housing.
4.
Install the lens by screwing it on to your housing lens port (images #3 and 4 on page 5).
5.
It is recommended to apply a small amount of silicone grease on the threaded area in
order to prevent corrosion. Make sure that no grease is applied over the lens glass.
6.
Once the lens is installed on the housing lens port, test the mount to make sure it’s
stable and that the lens sits within a fixed and secure position.
7.
During the dive, install the lens by screwing it on your housing lens port. Avoid
tightening the lens too hard onto the housing port, filter or adaptor, as this might result
in difficulty with removal
.
8.
Once the lens has been installed on the housing lens port, align the wings by carefully
swiveling them so that the longer wings are positioned vertically - on the bottom and
top. This will prevent the wings from being visible in images captured. Note that
swiveling the wings for the first time might require applying additional pressure.
9.
Note that water must enter the gap between the lens port and UWL-09Pro lens glass
when using the lens underwater.
Therefore, when diving with the lens, it is best to
install it underwater. Before capturing images, make sure that the gap between the wide
angle lens and the housing lens port fills with water and that there are no air bubbles
trapped there.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The
AOI UWL-09Pro Lens
should only be screwed till the point of minimal resistance.
Continuing to screw the lens further than this point will make it difficult to remove it
later on.
