WARNING
DO NOT impact the threads on the end-cap or they will dent
and prevent the VR2Tx case from closing. See section 8.2.1
for tips on thread care.
Remove the steel rods from the VR2Tx case and set them aside. Be
careful not to let the one in the Comm Key slide through the hole and
cause damage below.
Continue by hand twisting the end-cap in a counter-clockwise
direction until the end-cap and outer cylinder separate.
STEP 5
Place a hand on the back of the receiver to
hold it in place. The back of the receiver
often “jumps” during Step 4 so be prepared.
Insert the other steel rod into the hole in the Comm Key Hole
on the end-cap of the receiver and hold on to the rod
– it will
slide right through the hole and potentially damage
something below. Make sure the rod is fully inserted into the
hole or damage may occur to the Comm Key Hole.
Apply pressure to the rod in the COMM Key hole to turn it in
a counter-clockwise direction when you are facing the
hydrophone. The rod at the back of the receiver acts as a
brace while you apply pressure
, but be careful of it “jumping”
off the flat surface.
Continue to rotate the rod, and therefore the end-cap, until
turning become easier.
STEP 4
Continued…
Insert one steel rod into the hole that runs through the diameter of the
case near the flat end of the VR2Tx. Position it so most of the rod is on
the left side of the receiver as shown.
