Place the strap wrench (supplied in VR2C
Communications package) around the grooved
Receiver Locking Ring as shown in the picture.
Securely hold the upper housing and loosen the
collar until it begins to move easily.
STEP 4
Hold the VR2C so the
external connector is
pointing down
.
Hand-thread the lower
housing from the
upper housing, being
careful to keep the
lower housing below
the upper housing.
STEP 5
Keep the lower housing section
below
the
upper housing after the Receiver Locking
Ring has been loosened.
Water could have entered the threads and potentially
enter the receiver when the lower section is removed
IF
the lower section is above the upper section when
they are separated.
Carefully slide the lower housing from
the upper housing while keeping the
lower housing below the upper
housing.
Carefully tip the lower housing to
remove any water that may have
accumulated on the threads. Do not
let any water enter the upper housing
where the electronics are housed.
STEP 6
The internal wiring harness is still
connecting the two sections
–
don’t stain the wires!
Set the two housing sections
near each other; they’re still
connected.
STEP 7
Don’t allow water to enter the upper
housing where the electronics are
housed. Do not allow water to come
in contact with the battery.
DO NOT impact the threads on the
VR2C or they will dent and prevent the
VR2C case from closing. See the
Trouble Shooting section of the
Appendix for tips on thread care.
