Re-arming Acoustic Release
The mooring lug in the end of the VR2AR must be installed before the VR2AR is
deployed. Mooring lug replacements are available from VEMCO. Follow the steps below
to install a mooring lug in a VR2AR:
Remove the thick Retaining O-ring
from the end of the VR2AR. There
are two flat sections next to the O-
ring. Use either flat spot to aid in
gripping the O-ring and removing it.
Place the O-ring in a safe location for
use later. Replacements are
available from VEMCO.
STEP 1
Locate one end of the
retaining pin. The ends
can be seen inside the
O-ring groove.
STEP 2
Use a thin item, such as a pen or
pencil, to push one of the retaining
pin into the VR2AR case and cause
the other end of the pin to exit the
case.
STEP 3
Remove the retaining pin
completely from the VR2AR
case and set it in a safe
location for use later.
STEP 4
If your mooring lug has a line (rope, cable, etc.) already attached, then slide the
Retaining O-ring over the mooring lug and along the line until it is out of the way.
