To attach the Regulator to the tank:
Remove the dust protector from the yoke by turning the easy-grip knob in a counter
clockwise direction.
Place the yoke connector over the tank valve, positioned with the seating surface
against the valve o-ring.
Turn the easy-grip yoke knob clockwise until secure.
Slowly open the tank valve (with the pressure gauge facing away from you).
Momentarily purge the second stage, then listen to ensure that no breathing gas is
leaking from the regulator/tank connection.
If any leakage is observed, repeat the attachment procedure and inspect the sealing
o-ring. If gas still leaks, DO NOT USE! Take the regulator and tank to an Authorized
Oceanic Dealer for inspection and service.
If you wish to use your regulator on a DIN tank, have your Authorized Oceanic Dealer
convert the first stage with an Oceanic DIN Conversion Kit following the procedures given
for the specific regulator first stage in the current Oceanic Product Service Guide.
To remove the Regulator from the tank:
Close the tank valve and purge all breathing gas from the regulator system by de-
pressing the purge button of the second stage regulator. Ensure that all pressure has
been purged.
Turn the easy-grip yoke knob counter clockwise to loosen and lift the first stage off the
tank valve.
Prevent water from entering the first stage. DO NOT blow breathing gas near
a first stage that does not have the dust protector in place.
Dry the dust protector, position it within the yoke, and secure it by tightening the yoke
knob.
