PRE-DIVE PROCEDURE

1. Inspect the swivel and swivel connections for any corrosion.  Be 

certain all connections are tight.   Do not use the Regulator System if 

any problems are found 

2. Inspect First Stage Regulator.  Regularly check that the sintered

filter is free of rust, corrosion, or other contaminates.  To check the 

sintered filter. 

BE SURE THE CYLINDER AND UNIT ARE 

NOT PRESSURIZED BY DEPRESSING THE PURGE 

VALVE UNTIL ALL AIR HAS BEEN RELRASED.

  Next, 

unscrew the first stage from the cylinder by grasping the first stage 

tightly and turning counterclockwise.  The filter can be found at the 

bottom of the threaded portion of the fist stage which screws into the 

cylinder.  If you notice ANY rust, corrosion, or other contaminates con-

tact yourauthorized H2Odyssey Service Center or H2Odyssey, refer to 

How You Can Get Service on page 16.

3.

 Be sure the first stage is securely screwed into 

a 3,000 P.S.I.,Low Pressure cylinder.  Warning: us-

ing the Redundant Air System with a cylinder that 

is above 3000 P.S.I. and/or Medium or High Pres-

sure may result in serious injury or death.

  Screw  the 

first stage into the cylinder clockwise.  Be careful not to cross thread 

the first stage and the cylinder by slowly turning the first stage clock-

wise until the threads slide easily into place.  If you feel any resistance 

whatsoever stop turning clockwise and start turning the unit counter-

clockwise and try again until threads slide into place without resis-

tance.  

BE SURE TO SCREW THE FIRST STAGE  

INTO THE CYLINDER AS SNUGLY AS POSSIBLE 

WITHOUT OVERTIGHTENING AND DAMAGING  

THE O-RING.

4. Pressurize Regulator System.a. Remove black plastic cap from fill 

port on the RAS, attatch filler to fill port by turning clockwise until 

firmly snug.

WARNING: Filling the Redundant Air System from 

a cylinder that is above 3000 P.S.I. and/or  

Medium or High Pressure may result in serious 

injury or death.

b.  Attatch air station whip to station filler just like you would attatch 

the whip to a “j” or “k” valve. 

Make sure that the tank is lying down on floor or in 

water basin.The tank will want to tip over so make 

sure the tank is secure before filling.
