STEP 4 - Attach the Control Ring Gear

The supplied Control Ring ear is attached to the camera control ring by

3 small nylon Allen Set Screws. Place the Control Ring ear over the

camera’s step ring before installing the camera in the housing. The ear

is a “press fit” over the lens. ently tighten all three allen screws with

the supplied Allen Wrench as show below. D N T overtighten or you

may damage the gear, or cause it to warp and bow out from the lens

Control Ring. Make sure to test it’s function once installed.

When installing the camera in the housing, make sure that the Control

Ring ear meshes properly with the smaller black housing gear.

When removing the ear, leave the Set Screws in the ear. The Set

Screws are very small and easy to lose. Extra Set Screws are included

with your housing. We recommend that you leave the ear installed as

it makes rotating the camera control ring easier when out of the housing.

Turn clockwise to tighten. DO NOT overtighten

or you may warp or amage the gear.
