VT3 Battery Installation (continued) -
• Carefully place the clear Battery Hatch (with O-ring) into
position on the rim of the Battery Compartment, then press it
evenly and completely down into place with your same
thumb.
• Maintain the Battery Hatch securely in place and, using your
other hand, slide the Hatch Ring down off your thumb and
into position around the Battery Compartment. The tabs on
the Ring fit down into the slots located at the 2 and 9 o'clock
positions.
• Using your fingers, turn the Ring counter clockwise 5 de-
grees until the tabs engage, then tighten it 5 more degrees
by turning it counter clockwise with the aide of a small blade
screwdriver or spanner tool, pressing against the upper/left
arm of the Ring (Fig. 130).
Transmitter Battery Installation
• Lightly lubricate the new Battery Cap O-ring with silicone
grease and install it onto the Battery Cap. DO NOT roll
the O-ring over the Threads, instead stretch it slightly to
work it down over the slotted end of the Cap into the
Groove at the Base of the Threads (Fig. 131).
NOTE: The TMT's O-ring must be a genuine
Oceanic part that can be purchased from an
Authorized Oceanic Dealer.
