NOTE
IF THE DIVER IS SET UP PROPERLY, THE TENDER’S PULL-
ING ON THE COM-ROPE SHOULD PULL ON THE DIVER’S
HAND LOOP FIRST. IF THE DIVER IS NOT HOLDING THE
HAND LOOP, THE STRAIN SHOULD GO TO THE BELT “D-
RING,” NOT THE DIVER’S FULL-FACE MASK OR DIVER’S EAR-
PHONE/MICROPHONE ASSEMBLY.
ENSURE THE DIVER IS DRESSED OUT SO THAT NO UNNECES-
SARY LOOPS THAT CAN ENTANGLE HIM ARE PRESENT.
NOTE
EXCESSIVE VOLUME WILL CAUSE DISTORTION AND HINDER
COMMUNICATIONS. ADJUST ALL VOLUMES SLOWLY UNTIL
EVERYONE HEARS CLEARLY. A GOOD RULE TO FOLLOW IS,
“LESS VOLUME IS BETTER THAN TOO MUCH NOISE.”
- IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE -
THE DIVER SHOULD BE DRESSED IN SUCH A MANNER THAT
HE CAN DISCONNECT FROM THE COM-ROPE
®
AND DISCON-
NECT FROM THE EARPHONE/MICROPHONE ASSEMBLY. IF IT
BECOMES NECESSARY TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY ASCENT
AND THE DIVER HAS TO BREAK VOICE COMMUNICATIONS
AND LINE PULLS CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED, THE DIVER
SHOULD SURFACE AND ESTABLISH COMMUNICATIONS AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE.
- SAFETY NOTE -
IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO RELY SOLELY ON MK-7 BUDDY-
LINE
®
VOICE COMMUNICATIONS. A BACK UP SAFEGUARD,
SUCH AS LINE PULLS, SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED AND PRAC-
TICED.
NO POWER!
IF YOU CONNECT THE HEADSET WITH BOOM MICROPHONE
AND THE MK-7 DOES NOT POWER UP, VERIFY THE BATTER-
IES ARE FRESH (NEW) AND THE BATTERY SNAP IS CON-
NECTED. IF USING RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES, VERIFY
THEY HAVE BEEN FULLY CHARGED.
