Owner's Guide

Second Stage Swivel

The low pressure swivel shipped with the Omega II is also available as an ac-

cessory from your Autorized Oceanic Dealer who can install one on any of your

Oceanic Second Stage regulators.

Zeta

The Zeta is a pneumatically balanced Servo-Activated Breathing System.  The

highly responsive servo design provides high performance and maximum air

flow at operating depths.  The Zeta's purge is designed to control the volume of

air delivered based on the travel of the purge cover.

NOTE:  Due to the Zeta's servo design, a hiss may be heard upon

being pressurized.  This is normal for the Zeta.

SlimLine Octopus

There are two SlimLine models, left-hand and right-hand.  How you use the

SlimLine depends upon the model you chose to suit your preferred arrangement

of equipment and your style of diving (i.e., whether you plan to offer the

SlimLine to a buddy as an alternate breathing gas source or use the SlimLine

yourself, offering your buddy your primary second stage).

Although either model will function properly with the purge button facing up or

down, Oceanic recommends an operational position with the purge button fac-

ing up, similar to other second stage positioning.  The streamlined and flat 'side-

ways' design of the SlimLine together with the unique orientation of the mouth-

piece and exhaust valve reduces drag.

Oceanic also offers the SlimLine second stage as an integrated component of

the Air XS II and InLine SlimLine model alternate air source(s).

Swivel 180 Octopus

The Swivel 180 Octo features two conveniently angled exhaust ports that direct

the flow of exhausted breathing gas away from your field of vision.  The smoth

action180 degree swivel reduces jaw fatigue and provides for the convenience

of underarm operation and ambidextrous operation.

How you use the Swivel 180 Octo depends upon your preferred arrangement of

equipment and your style of diving (i.e., whether you plan to offer it to a buddy

as an alternate breathing gas source or use it yourself, offering your buddy your

primary second stage).
