LENS INSTALLATION
With the camera inside the housing, rst disengage the pinion gear (#15) by pulling and
rotating the disc (# 13) under the focus/zoom knob into the up position, install the lens
prepared with its gears through the port opening in the front of the housing. If using a gear
always conrms that it is properly installed and aligned on the lens. Once installed,
release the disc (key # 10) and rotate the focus / zoom control knob (Key # 14) to
ensure that the gears are properly meshed, that their rotation is smooth and that it does
not do not grind or bind.
Note: To avoid damaging the auto-focus mechanism of the camera when using stan-
dard AF-D type lenses, you should always set the Focus Control to “M” Manual for test-
ing the proper meshing of focusing gears. This procedure is not required with AF-S
type lenses.
MOUNTING THE PORT
Before mounting the port on the housing always ensure that the port O-ring is clean, lubricated and properly seated in its groove and that
he sealing surface on the housing is clean and free of physical damage.
The AQUATICA AD7000 Digital Housing System features a bayonet mount (# 26) equipped with a locking mechanism (# 27). If there is
already a port or extension mounted on the housing and you wish to remove it, simply pull the lock lever (# 27) until it stop, rotate the port
counter clockwise and carefully pull out, and put it aside in a safe place with the port lens delicate surface protected.
To mount the port or extension ring simply:
1- Place the housing on its back on a soft steady surface.
2- Place the port or extension ring inside the main port of the housing.
Align one of the four alignment notches with the opening of the housing.
3- Place your hands on opposite sides of the port or extension ring.
4- Push with even force on both sides of the port or extension ring until you
feel it snap into place. Make sure the bayonet is completely inside the housing.
5- Turn the port clockwise until it stops. Do not force, if there is too much resistance
takes the port off, check the O-ring and retry. the port lock will engage itself once it has
completed its rotation.
6. conrm visually the proper seating and sealing of the port or extension and that it is safely locked on the housing.
Note: It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with this mount by trying it without the camera; this will allows you to see the inside
view of the bayonet mount and of the ports or extension rings in the housing.
