4.2 INLET MOUNTING AND TRAVEL RANGES
4.2.1 INLET FITTING OR EXTEND-A-GUN INSTALLATION
The Typhoon Monitor is available with various inlet fi ttings as shown in fi g 3.3. When the inlet fi ttings are used see fi gure 4.2.1A
for the addition to overall height. The Typhoon Monitor also connects directly to TFT’s Extend-A-Gun RC3 or RC4. The fi ttings and
Extend-A-Gun RC are attached to the monitor by means of a threaded joint with an o-ring seal.
TWO PIECE CLAMP ROTATIONAL LOCK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(without tapped holes):
1) Assemble Clamps and place loosely on 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 Extend-A-Gun outlet.
E) Heads of Cylinder Nuts must be on top side of Clamps.
2) Screw monitor onto Extend-A-Gun RC until threaded joint bottoms out.
NOTICE
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.
A) DO NOT USE PIPE SEALANT OR LOCTITE ON THE INLET BASE THREADS.
NOTICE
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 Ahead Reference Mark” is facing the desired direction.
A) Monitor may be unscrewed up to one full turn from the bottomed out position.
NOTICE
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.
5) Tighten each Screw gradually until both are fi nger tight with approximately equal spacing between opposite ends of Clamps.
6) Carefully tighten each Screw one additional turn using a 5/32 hex wrench by alternating to the opposite Screw in half turn
increments.
NOTICE
Over tightening the Screws will damage Screws and Clamps.
