Using the adhesive mount
The adhesive mount is used for fixing the waterproof case or tripod adaptor to an item you intend to use. The adhesive mount is a general term for the attachment buckle, flat adhesive mount, and curved adhesive mount. Before attaching, insert the camera in the waterproof case or attach the tripod adaptor.
- The adhesive mount can be attached to the FDR-X1000V without attaching the waterproof case or the tripod adaptor.
The procedure for fixing the adhesive mount to the waterproof case is explained here.
- Align the tripod screw hole in the bottom of the waterproof case with the tripod screw hole of the attachment buckle, and fix firmly with the tripod screw.
Match the bottom of the camera and fix firmly with the tripod screw.
- Attach the attachment buckle (with the waterproof case set in step 1) to the flat adhesive mount or curved adhesive mount by sliding it until it clicks into place.
- Remove dust, moisture and oily substances completely from the surface where the adhesive mount is to be attached.
- Peel off the release paper on the back, and fix the adhesive mount in the desired location.
Adhesive power reaches its maximum strength 24 hours after the adhesive mount is attached to the desired location.
To attach to or detach from the attachment buckle
Press and hold the circled part to unlock, then slide it in the opposite direction of step 2.
Note
- The flat adhesive mount and curved adhesive mount cannot be used again once they are detached from the location surface.
- When detaching, peel off slowly. If peeled off forcibly, the surface on which the mount is fixed might be damaged.
- Before attaching, check the surface of the item to be used. If it is dirty, or dust, moisture or oily substances are attached, adhesive strength may be impaired and the item could detach with slight impact.
- Use the appropriate adhesive mount (flat or curved) for the surface where the camera will be located. If the mount is not suitable for the surface, it may detach by slight impact.
- Thread a suitable leash through the leash attachment hole of the waterproof case, then attach the leash to an item you intend to use with the camera.
- Before use, confirm that the screw hole on the attachment buckle is not loose, and the flat or curved adhesive mount is securely attached to the surface.
