GENERAL
Warning!
It will be assumed that the user of the camera is fully confident and trained in the use of
diving equipment.
The demands on underwater photographic equipment are very high - pressure, aggressiveness of salt
water and not least, improper use results in a risk which can only be avoided by careful handling.
Therefore assemble carefully and calmly. Check twice!
During the production process all functions and the tightness of each individual housing are tested and
checked several times. Nevertheless, we recommend to test dive the housing first
without the
camera
fitted
, to insure that all is well.
After closing the housing, check everything as recommended on the checklist.
After entering the water, tip the housing with the frontglass downwards and check whether everything
is watertight. Then you can dive with confidence.
If the equipment has not been used for a prolonged period or perhaps after a service (i. a. greasing of
the shafts, etc.) always test dive first
without the camera fitted
.
Please take note of these points of advice:
- O-rings should be absolutely clean and be greased thinly. We recommend the use of waterproof
Silicone grease (eg. SUBAL-Silicone grease). Too much grease results in the accumulation of small
dirt particles which are invisible.
- The sealing surfaces must be absolutely clean.
- O-rings must lie in the groove without twisting.
Important!
The equipment should be rinsed thoroughly in freshwater after each dive in saltwater. Metal parts,
especially threads (screws) should always be greased.
Threaded parts should never be stored assembled without first having been cleaned and dried.
Salt residue should be removed before prolonged storage by placing in freshwater for several days,
then dried.
The O-ring of the lid and especially also the front port O-ring should be removed.
Only use original SUBAL-spare parts and SUBAL-accessories.
Have your equipment overhauled from time to time by the manufacturer or by an authorisized service
center - it is worthwhile.
