Maintenance of the threaded sections on the
TTL cable and TTL cable connector
If the threaded sections used to connect the TTL cable to the TTL cable connector are not
maintained properly, salt and other seawater residue may adhere the TTL cable and
prevent it from being disconnected.
After use in seawater, clean off any salt, sand, or other residue as soon as possible, then
dry the equipment thoroughly. Clean the threaded sections with a cotton swab and apply a
thin, uniform layer of O-ring silicon grease (provided with this case).
Maintenance of the TTL Connector Cap
After removing the TTL connector cap from the waterproof cap, be sure to clean and
grease the O-ring.
Use the waterproof cap maintenance adapter to remove the O-ring unit from the
waterproof cap.
