 punch or pencil soldering iron

1) Deciding on a Location

Installation of the assembly is a fairly simple process once one overcomes the 
resistance to putting a hole in your dry or wet suit.

Carefully choose the area where the valve body will be installed. Location is most 
commonly on the inner thigh. It is recommended that you don your suit fully 
(including undergarments) while determining valve placement. Mark your posi-
tion of choice with chalk or fabric marker.

It is important to note that divers vary in their preference for the connection 
tube location. Some individuals prefer to “dress left” or “dress right.” This prefer-
ence would dictate a location on the left or right thigh. You will also need to 
decide if you want to angle the valve up with the connection tube running over 
the underwear and down to the Delrin base.
