Focus Extension Module’s Control Knob (Nikon)
Due to the larger diameter of the Nikon VR lens, the Control
Spacer is longer to obtain the proper control length. The Focus
Extension Module comes assembled with the Nikon Control Spacer
installed.

Preparing the Focus Extension Module for Installation
The extension o-ring comes from the factory clean and lightly
lubricated. It should not be necessary to remove the o-ring,
however we recommend applying a light coating of lubricant, just
enough to make if feel slick. Remove any excess lubricant as it can
collect foreign particles which can interfere with sealing.
If it becomes necessary to remove the o-ring from it’s groove, use a
non-sharp instrument such as a small flat bladed screwdriver. O-
rings can be cleaned with fresh water. To lubricate the o-ring, put a
small amount of lubricant on your finger tips and draw the o-ring
through your fingers. Use only a
small amount of lubricant. When
drawing the o-ring through your
fingers do not stretch the o-ring.
On the inside of the Extension
Ring just below the internal
threads is a flat sealing surface.
This sealing surface is where the
o-ring on the Port Body will seal
when they are screwed together.
Make sure it is clean.
Make sure all threads and sealing surfaces are clean before
installation. Use a Q-tip and fresh water to clean if necessary.

Changing the Port Extension Control Spacer
The Canon lens is smaller in diameter requiring the shorter Control
Spacer be installed between the port body and knob.
To install the optional Canon Control Spacer, use the supplied allen
wrench to loosen the knob allen screw. Remove the knob and
Nikon Control Spacer. Install the Canon Control Spacer, remount
the knob, and tighten the allen screw. Note there is a flat on the
control shaft against which the allen screw should tighten.
NOTE: There are two Canon Macro lenses that can be used with
this port extension. When using the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro
USM (NOT the newer “L” IS version), install the supplied washer
between the knob and “C-L” control spacer.
Focus Extension Module’s Control Knob (Canon)
When using the Focus knob above water, inward pressure will have
to be applied to the knob to rotate the focus barrel on the lens.

When using the #5510.75 Port Extension, both Canon lenses must
be used with the #5510.16 port body only, otherwise the Focus
Extension Control will not line up properly in relation to the lens
focus ring. The Nikon VR lens will align properly when used with
either port body #5510.16 or #5510.22.

For prolonged storage, the Port should be removed from the
housing and the port sections should be unscrewed. All o-rings on
port sections should be removed, cleaned, lightly lubricated, and
reinstalled on each port section. If you screw the port sections back
together for storage, only engage a few threads, leave the sealing
o-ring visible.
CAUTION: When the port will not be used for prolonged
periods we recommend unscrewing all sections of the Port. If
sections are not unscrewed for prolonged periods it can makee
unscrewing difficult.
Never use spray lubricants as the propellant ingredient can
cause cracking in this product. Use ONLY Ikelite Lubricant.

After each dive, the exterior of the housing and Port should be
rinsed thoroughly in fresh water and dried with a soft cloth.
Remove any water spots from the flat port assembly faceplate as
they can cause blurry spots in the photographs.
After prolonged saltwater use, the exterior of the Port and housing
should be soaked in a mild liquid soap and water solution. Rinse
thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
