Procedure, Key Hole Lock | Panasonic LX5 manual

Procedure

The O-ring can be extracted using an O-ring extractor tool (make sure the tool as no sharp edges). Alternatively use the flats of the thumbs to gently stretch the O-ring on two faces thus making a small loop protruding a few mm. The loop can then be grasped between finger and thumb, to pull the O-ring over the lip. Clean the O-ring recess (the square groove where the O-ring sits) with a cotton bud.

Inspect the O-ring all the way round its surface for damage such as cuts，tears or contamination. This should be done visually and also by feeling the surface texture between finger and thumb.

IF THE O-RING IS DAMAGED OR SUSPECTED OF

BEING DAMAGED, DISCARD IT IMMEDIATELY.

A spare O-ring is supplied with your housing, or a replacement O-ring can be ordered from 10BAR. If the O-ring is contaminated or suspected of being contaminated, clean it with an optical cleansing cloth that is free of loose fabric or contamination. After cleaning inspect the O-ring again.

Once the O-ring has been inspected and verified fit for use, apply a small amount of silicone grease to the O-ring. The silicone grease must be evenly distributed round the

O-ring. Install the O-ring into the groove; run a finger round the O-ring, to make sure it is snugly

seated in the groove.
