SKIDS
Depending on the size of pipe you are inspecting, you
may need to use the supplied skid so the camera is cen-
tered of off the bottom of the pipe. Care should be taken
so the skids do not snag in the pipe.
Under normal operating situations, the camera is used
with the smaller protective sleeve in 4‖ lines or the larger
finned sleeve in 6‖ and larger pipes.
The skids supplied should be slipped onto the camera
with the lip of the sleeve at the front. Make sure the cam-
era body is clean and the set screws tightened only until
they touch the camera body. Do not over tighten as you
may damage the camera housing.
