Releasing the Pod from the Mask
Squeeze the front and the back
parts of the pod Catch, Release to-
gether to release the pod from the
mask. Swing the pod forward and to
the left in an arcing motion to free
the pod Hook from the mask. Make
sure the pod Hook is completely dis-
engaged from mask. Once you have
established that the pod is free of
the mask suggested handling is by
holding the LP supply hose to move
the pod to desired location for gas
sharing, storage or transport.
Diving with a Hood
A general rule of placing the mask skirt closest to the face with the wet-
suit hood over the mask skirt should be typical. Latex dryhoods found on
certain drysuits are thin enough to be worn either close to the face with
the mask skirt on top of the hood or with the mask skirt close to the face
in the configuration when using a neoprene hood.
Kirby Morgan has designed a unique attached hood made specifically for
this mask. It gives the optimum positioning and sealing onto the mask and
comes in standard and large sizes.
Water Entry
Many methods of water entry are possible due to the secure nature of the
mask seal. However, the diver should hold the mask & demand regulator/
BOV/DSV firmly against the face when doing a roll off or drop type entry.
Once in the water, the diver should recheck mask fit, check the regulator
for ease of breathing, and perform a communications check if so equipped.
