1. Remove the back
from the housing.
The mounting tray
for the camera is
secured to the
housing back.
Position the camera
on the tray and
secure it with the
mounting bolt which
threads into the
camera’s tripod
socket.
CCAAUUTTIIOONN::
Some camera tripod socket threads are plastic. The mounting
tray bolt is metal. Do not cross thread or over tighten as you
may damage the camera tripod socket threads.
2. Pull out on each housing control until it stops. This will get the
controls out of the way for installing the camera.
