Remove all pieces from the Infinium LS box. All

assembly hardware is located in a clear plastic bag

inside the bag containing the control housing pouch.

1. The cuff on the end of the s-handle has been

factory installed. Test its placement by grasping the

black-rubbered s-handle (Figure 1). If the cuff does

not fit comfortably under your forearm, loosen the

nut, remove the nut, bolt and washers, and reposition

the cuff. Reinsert the bolt and washers, and tighten

the nut.

2. Remove the black stem piece that has been tele-

scoped into the silver stem (Figure 2). Insert the end

of the silver stem piece, with the hole 2" from the top,

over the bottom of the black stem at the end of the

s-handle. Significant pressure needs to be applied to

the silver stem in order to insert the bolt (Figure 3).

6. Wrap cable around

the stem and secure it

according to your operat-

ing configuration. For hip-

mount or under the cuff

configurations, use the

adjustable velcro strap to

secure the cable to the upper stem (Figure 8).

facing you (instructions should be upside down, bat-

tery compartment side up, control buttons down), slip

the left bracket lip under the slot on the left hand side

of the control housing (Figure 10). Do the same with

the right bracket on the right side of the control hous-

ing (Figure 11).

B. Hold the brackets firmly in place and slide them

over the stem, lining up the holes in the stem. Insert

the remaining bolts, washers and nuts through the

left bracket, stem and

right bracket (Figure

12). Tighten both nuts.

NOTE: keep pouch and

belt in a safe place in

case you decide to use

the pouch configuration

at a later date.

Belt Mount:

A. Unfasten velcro strap on pouch. Slide

control housing, control buttons up, into the pouch.

Refasten velcro strip.

B. Unwind belt strap and adjust to fit around your

waist. Slip one side of the strap through the loop

in the back of the pouch (Figure 13) and snap belt

together around your waist (Figure 14). NOTE: keep

control housing brackets and extra hardware in a safe

place in case you decide to use a mounted configura-

tion at a later date.

8. Ensure the searchcoil connector at the rear of the

control housing is clean and the o-ring at the end of

the cable is well lubricated; add a little silicon grease

or petroleum jelly if necessary. DO NOT coat connec-

tor pins with lubricant. Insert searchcoil cable connec-

tor and gently tighten by hand; DO NOT over tighten.
