9.6.2 Maintenance
Procedure
:
1) Open the Bayonet ring and take out the
two O-rings.
2) Apply Molycote all around the groove.
3) If replacing the O-rings: Put the two new
O-rings into place.
4) Use a small paintbrush to spread the
grease evenly.
The two O-rings are different size:
The one with larger diameter goes
into the glove ring and the smaller
diameter into the sleeve ring.
The suit must be pressure tested
before it is used again.

When functioning properly, the safety lock-
ing pin “snaps” into place when pushing it
with a finger. The pin may after repeated
use become too easy to push into place,
i.e. it gets worn out, and must then be
replaced.
