that might have accumulated in the lamp cover. Do not use any silicone on
the bulb slug o-rings.
6. After cleaning the bulb slug O-rings and the lamp cover, gently place the
glass cover over the bulb slug and push it into place. Make sure that the bulb
cover is seated all the way to the bottom O-ring on the slug assembly. Use a
protective barrier such as a leather glove or heavy rag to protect your hand
from a possible break in the glass bulb cover
7. Place the Goodman head assembly back onto the light head, focusing the
light to a tight beam and locking down the screw.
Explorer, Eos and Apollo Canister and Lid
Take the time to inspect the O-ring on the canister lid before every dive. The
O-ring should be free of grit or dirt and should not have any signs of damage.
Remove the O-ring from the lid and wipe it down with a clean cloth before
every dive. The lid O-ring does not require any lubrication. The O-ring groove
on the lid should also be cleaned of any dirt or debris.
Be careful not to damage the sealing surface on the lid or canister. During
transport, the lid should always be attached to the canister to prevent
accidentally nicking either surface. However, you should store your light for
extended periods of time with the lid off or the battery removed from the
canister. Over time, and especially after discharge, the rechargeable batteries
will off-gas potentially combustible gasses. While off-gassing has not proven
itself to be a common problem, you should be aware of the potential risk by
not allowing the canister to sit over time with discharged batteries sealed
inside.
Light Canister
The light canister must keep the battery dry and protected while you are
diving at depth. Halcyon lights use two locking latches to secure the lid
to the canister. When opening or closing your light, work both latches
simultaneously to avoid stressing any side of the lid unevenly.
