TWO PIECE CLAMP ROTATIONAL LOCK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (without tapped holes):
1) Assemble Clamps and place loosely on Inlet Adapter or Extend-A-
Gun.
A) Apply VSA-125 blue Loctite to threads on Cylinder Nut.
B) Loosely install Screws, Washers and Cylinder Nuts on Clamp.
C) Grooves on heads of Cylinder Nuts indicate alignment of threaded
holes.
D) Place Clamp assembly over male threads of outlet.
E) Heads of Cylinder Nuts must be on top side of Clamps.
2) Screw monitor onto Inlet Adapter or Extend-A-Gun RC until threaded
joint bottoms out.
A)
MAKE SURE THE CLAMPS ARE NOT TIGHT ENOUGH TO
PREVENT THE MONITOR BASE FROM BOTTOMING OUT.
The
monitor will leak if it does not bottom out in this step.
B) DO NOT USE PIPE SEALANT OR LOCTITE ON THE INLET
BASE THREADS. These threads are sealed with an O-ring. The
use of thread locking compounds will make removal diffi cult.
3) Unscrew monitor until the “Straight Back Reference Mark” is facing
the desired direction.
A) Monitor may be unscrewed up to one full turn from the bottomed
out position.
B)
MONITOR WILL LEAK IF UNTHREADED MORE THAN ONE
FULL ROTATION FROM BOTTOMED-OUT CONDITION.
4) Rotate the Clamps to the desired orientation.
A) Ensure that Clamp assembly does not interfere with RC monitor
Power/Com Cable.
4) Tighten each Screw gradually until both are fi nger tight with
approximately equal spacing between opposite ends of Clamps.
5) Carefully tighten each Screw one additional turn using a 5/32
hex wrench by alternating to the opposite Screw in half turn
increments.
A)
OVER TIGHTENING THE SCREWS WILL DAMAGE SCREWS
AND CLAMPS.

¼-28 BUTTON HEAD CAP SCREW ROTATIONAL LOCK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (tapped holes):
1) Install Inlet Adapter or Extend-A-Gun RC to apparatus.
Mount so that 180 degree apart threaded cross-holes
will give desired direction relative to the “Straight Back
Reference Mark” when the monitor is installed.
2) Screw monitor onto Inlet Adapter or Extend-A-Gun RC
until threaded joint bottoms out.
A) Do not use pipe dope or Loctite on the Inlet Base
threads. These threads are sealed with an O-ring. The
use of thread locking compounds will make removal
diffi cult.
3) Unscrew monitor until a pair of 90 degree apart slots
line up with the 180 degree apart threaded cross-holes
in the Inlet Adapter or Extend-A-Gun RC.
A) Orient monitor so that the “Straight Back Reference
Mark” is facing the desired direction.
B) Slots will line up with threaded cross-holes every 90
degrees of rotation.
C) Monitor may be unscrewed up to one full turn from
the bottomed out position.
4) Install ¼-28 by ½ long Button Head Cap Screws
and Washers in the two threaded cross- holes. If the
threads are not wrapped with tefl on tape, use Loctite
#271 on the threads of the Button Head Cap Screws.
Allow Loctite to fully cure before applying water
pressure.
