VEMCO – ASCENT–AR / AR2 Manual 28 July

Hold the release in an
upright position
and slide
the internal casing into the
Outer Cylinder, flat end
first, until the first threads
are inside the outer
cylinder.
Ensure that the O-rings
remain properly seated
in their grooves as the
end-cap is moved into the
outer cylinder.
STEP 4
Insert the steel rod into the Bluetooth Activator Hole and hold on to the rod
– it
could slide through the case and potentially damage something below. Make
sure the rod is fully inserted or damage may occur to the Bluetooth Activator
Hole.
STEP 7
Hold the body of the ASCENT-AR securely in place. A strap wrench on the
body of the ASCENT-AR can help with gripping the release.
Apply pressure to the rod so it turns in a clockwise direction when you are
facing the hydrophone.
Continue moving the rod until the end cap touches the edge of the outer
cylinder. Don’t over-tighten the case pieces together or they may be
damaged.
Remove the steel rod from the
ASCENT-AR
case.
NOTE: The Float attachment bracket may rotate on the case.
Place the
ASCENT-AR
on its side a clean, flat surface so the
hydrophone is hanging over the edge but the float attachment
bracket is still on the surface. DO NOT let the release fall off the
surface.
TIP : A non-slip surface, such as a rubber mat, helps keep the
ASCENT-AR
in place while closing it.
STEP 6
Hold the release
in an upright
position
and turn
the end-cap in a
clockwise direction
(when looking at
the hydrophone)
until it becomes
too hard to turn.
STEP 5
WARNING
Do not over-tighten the case pieces together or they may be damaged.
