Note: Use care when attaching items to your P-ELT. Clipping attachments, carabineers, rope,

webbing, etc. will all add weigh and can affect the buoyancy of the P-ELT. Your P-ELT may not

float if items have been attached to it.

Removable Holster

To Open the Holster, squeeze inward on the two tabs located on the bottom clip and pull up on the top of the

holster. Rotate antenna up, and slide the holster off around the antenna.

To secure antenna when the holster is on your AeroFix™, be sure to deploy antenna prior to placing the

holster onto the unit. Slide the antenna through the holster to secure it to the beacon. The holster will clip

together at the bottom of holster. Rotate antenna into down position in order to wrap it around the holster to

lock it in place. Make sure the antenna runs between the two guides on the bottom of the holster. This will

prevent the antenna from slipping out of position. Finally lock the antenna into place by engaging the tab

located on the antenna into the slot provided on the top right corner of the holster. Slide it in to lock in place.

The AeroFix™ also comes with a bulk head mounting clip that allows you to easily mount your P-
ELT to your console or bulk head. Simply bolt the mounting clip to your desired location and slide
the P-ELT onto the clip ensuring that the bottom back of the holster slides over the clip to secure it
in place (See figure 9).
