MOUNTING SINGLE OR TWIN CYLINDERS USING NUTS AND BOLTS
Inserting a backplate into the WTX Harness will allow divers to set up a single or twin cylinder system
using nuts and bolts. Single or twin cylinder(s) can also be bolted directly to the Apeks backplate. Ideally,
the bolts on a single tank adapter or a set of twin bands should be 11 inches (28 cm) apart on center.
Insert the bolts through the appropriate grommets on the buoyancy cell, and through the corresponding
grommets or bolt holes on the WTX harness or Apeks backplate. Secure with flat washer and nut.
To insert an Apeks backplate, remove the back pad and fold
down the hook and loop tab at the bottom of the harness. Lift
open the built in pouch and slide the backplate in as far as it
will allow. Close the pouch and secure by repositioning the
hook and loop tab. Replace the back pad if desired.
