1.
Failure to maintain the SLS System Mk IV Backpack in accordance with this Manual (using

could result in a serious hazard or fatal injury to personnel.
2.
This SLS System Mk IV Backpack contains a high-pressure helium / oxygen mixture for
breathing purposes. Only special purpose, oxygen compatible, lubricant (e.g. Christo-lube
fluorinated grease - Divex Part No. SM034) should be used on specified components that
come into contact with high pressure, oxygen rich mixtures.
3.
Naked lights or smoking in the vicinity of the gas cylinders may cause an explosion.

The system must be depressurised before disconnecting any part of the gas system.

Due to the very high levels of energy stored within compressed gas, it is potentially very
dangerous. Care must therefore be taken when charging the gas cylinders and safety
goggles must be worn. Ear defenders should also be worn.
6.
Care must be taken to ensure that the replacement intervals specified in this Manual are
adhered to for all components.

Care must be exercised in the storage of the SLS System Mk IV Backpack to ensure that it is
maintained in a clean state, ready for use. If it is to be stored at temperatures below 0
