Hand Mount
If you wish to use Neptune as a visual
altimeter we suggest you use the hand mount
provided.
Lay the hand mount across the back of the
Neptune. Line up the four (4) holes with the
threaded inserts in the back of the Neptune
and insert the screws provided, with the
washers between the fabric and the screws.
You may use Loctite to hold the screws
securely in place.
If you wish to wear the Neptune on your
wrist, like a watch, use the wrist mount
provided.
The fabric wrist mount is attached to the back
of the Neptune in the same way as the hand
mount. The narrow wrist strap is then fed
through the channel in the wrist mount.
Metal backplates were previously issued with
Neptunes. Do NOT use one of these
backplates alone with the narrow wrist strap;
this setup will crack the display!
WARNING
PARACHUTING IS A HAZARDOUS ACTIVITY THAT CAN RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.
An altimeter is a device subject to malfunction, even when properly designed, built, assembled, maintained and used. Do not
rely upon an altimeter for your safety. Your altimeter must only be considered as an aid when checking your altitude.
A visual cross reference with the ground should be used in combination with any altimeter.
