Maintenance and Storage
Never use chemicals, cosmetics, any petroleum solvents such as
paint thinner, or neutral detergent on the product. They may deform
and damage the product.
After each use in salt water, soak it sufficiently in fresh water.
Insufficient soaking causes damage by salt to the product. Salty
residue may be left on the product where it will crystallize as it
evaporates. Crystallized salt is hard to dissolve and difficult to be
removed once formed.
After rinsing, dry the product well with a soft dry cloth, then let the
product dry in the shade, out of direct sunlight.
Do not dry the product by heating (using a hair dryer, for example).
Heating can deform and damage the product.
If you will not use the product for an extended period of time, store it
away from high temperatures, high humidity, direct sunlight, or
extreme cold.
Do not store the product with naphthalene or camphor mothballs, or in
locations such as a laboratory where chemicals are used. This
environment can cause mold, rust, corrosion or malfunction.
Store the system after use with each component disjointed.
Every two years we recommend a complete overhaul of O-rings
regardless of the frequency in use, for the best performance of the
product.
