GE Inspection Technologies LP 7260H Manual De Usuario

 – Insert the pin at the base of the handset into the mating groove at the bottom of the probe. 

 – Rotate the probe towards the back of the handset, applying enough pressure for the latching 

mechanism to “click.”
To remove the probe from the handset:

 – Press this latching-mechanic's release button to separate the probe and handset. 

Optical tips are threaded onto the probe with a double set of threads to prevent them from 

falling into the inspection area. Each optical tip provides a unique depth of field, field of view, 

and direction of view. For a list of available tips, see 

Appendix B – Optical Tip Table

.

 Caution—Use only finger pressure to remove or attach tips. Using force (including pliers 

or other tools) might damage the bending neck. Take care not to cross the threads. To reduce 

cross-threading risk: When installing a tip by hand (6.1mm & 8.4mm) or with an installation tool 

(4mm), rotate the tip counter clockwise to level the threads before rotating clockwise to thread the 

tip on the camera. Reverse the leveling process when removing tips.
To Remove an Optical Tip: Support the bending neck and head of 

the probe with one hand, and with the other gently turn the optical 

tip counterclockwise (be sure to use a tip tool when removing 4.0 mm 

tips), Turn until the tip spins freely, indicating that it has cleared the 

first set of threads. Gently pull the tip away from probe and continue 

turning counterclockwise, engaging the second set of threads. Turn 

until you can remove it.
To Attach an Optical Tip: Verify that the optical tip and camera head threads are clean, then 

grasp the head of the probe with one hand, and with the other gently turn the tip clockwise. 

Turn until it spins freely, indicating that it has cleared the first set of threads. Gently push the 

tip in, then turn clockwise again, engaging the second set of threads. Turn until finger tight. 

 Caution—Do not over-tighten tips. Pull on the tip gently to verify that it is securely attached. 

If the second set of threads does not engage, turn the tip slightly in a counterclockwise direction 

to allow the threads to levelize.
Note: Measurement tips must be tightened firmly to ensure accuracy.
