4.3.6 W-Skids
The optional 8” (200mm) W-Skids are used to center the 2” (50mm) camera in 8” (200mm) pipes and to
help centering in larger pipes.
To install the skids, locate each of the three w-skids onto the collar and fix firmly with two M5 x 12mm
screws each. The skids are asymmetrical and can only be fitted one way round.
Loosen the two M6 x 20mm screws that hold the two halves of the collar together and insert the flexi with
the camera attached into the collar. Ensure the camera abuts the screw end of the collar, and tighten the
two screws evenly and firmly.
