Igniter Assembly

22. Trim the exposed wires on the igniters to

1/8th inch. This will prevent any shorts from the

exposed wires touching each other. Then attach

the Drogue and Main igniters to the terminal

block on the altimeter.

*Refer to your specific altimeter instructions

for further details and MAKE SURE YOUR

ALTIMETER IS CONFIGURED TO YOUR

PREFERENCES AT THIS POINT, BECAUSE

IT WILL BE HARDER TO ACCESS AFTER

YOU COMPLETE THE EJECTION CANISTER

SETUP.

23. Now feed the Main igniter through the

hole in the disk on the "E2" side of the sled.

Then bend the Drogue/Apogee igniter around

the left side of the "C" shape and towards the

"E1" side of the sled.

24. Slide the coupler tube over the sled

assembly. (Use the diagram on the right for ref-

erence). The tube will slide over the "B1" part

of the disk and butt up against "B2".

25. Take your completed disk piece from

Step 10 "A1& A2" and place it over the open

end of the sled. Make sure the smaller side of

the disk piece goes on first and insert the igniter

through the smaller hole.

26. Screw both Metal Thumb Screws Part

"I" into the open holes on the "E1" part of the

sled. Tighten the screws to secure the fit.

You may need to rotate the tube around while

tightening it in order to align the switch with the

open hole on the tube.
