Title: having problem with ultralux pushbutton !!(ultimarc)
Post by: soyeux28 on March 28, 2011, 09:30:00 pm
ok so i will try to explain this as clear as i can with my so-so english lol

i ordered from ultimarc some led pushbutton , led works fine , but when i try to insert the led into the push button, its impossible to align the little cherry button on the black connector , with the white button that is activated when you push the button that hit the little cherry pushbutton !!1

i can add pitcure if needed , but the flash kinda screw the pic

thanks for the reply !!!!

Send Andy an email with info on your problem if you cannot resolve it.   It looks like the bayonet holder for the light holds the switch in position and the plunger on the pushbutton should come down and push on the microswitch actuator if the bayonet is in the correct position.

You're not twisting hard enough. The first time you install the bayonet, it takes a decent amount of torque to lock them in.

I guess you'll have to. I don't understand what you're doing wrong, but you're definitely doing something wrong.

You didn't twist it far enough, because it isn't locked into place (I see some looseness). Believe me, you're not going to break it....you need to twist it clockwise more.
