10. Remove iron and turn off.
11. Allow patch and suit to cool for approximately 5 minutes.
INSPECT REPAIR
After repair is complete the suit should be leak tested before use.
It is recommended that a leak test be completed using Mustang
Survival’s Dry Suit Test Kit (Mustang P/N MA8836) or equivalent to
test the complete integrity of the suit
Once you have verified that there are no leaks your suit is ready to be
used.
EXHAUST VALVE REPLACEMENT
The exhaust valves (Part# RE7017) are designed to be easily replaced.
They may be unscrewed and removed with little difficulty. Use the
following procedure:
Figure 45
1. Unscrew the top of the valve
housing cover.
3. If necessary, use large pliers
to remove the valve. Thread
damage as a result of removal
is not a concern because the
old valve is to be discarded.
4. Unscrew the valve body from its
core and remove it from the suit.
5. Remove the rubber gaskets; set all valve parts aside.
6. Place a new valve and flapper into the hole, with the suit material
between the rubber gaskets, and screw it together. Hand-tighten
only.
7. Perform a leak test to ensure the suit is watertight.
