PRE-DIVE PROCEDURES
PRE-DIVE SET-UP 7.1
1. Place AMCOMMAND II on flat surface that can support the unit. Select a working area which
is secure, stable, convenient, and suitable for use during the period of the dive.
2. Open unit and remove both yokes and color coded high pressure hose whips from the storage
position. Conduct a visual inspection of unit to insure no damage has occurred during
transportation to the job site, or since the last time the unit was used.
3. Attach each yoke to a scuba cylinder by screwing down until finger tight. Note: be sure the
bleeder valve on each yoke is in the closed position. (Note: do not turn the cylinder’s air on at
this time).
4. If available, a low pressure compressor should be used as the primary air supply and scuba
cylinders used as a back-up air source. Note: Low pressure compressors used for breathing
air should be specifically designed for diving.
5. All hose whips should be clear of debris and have their open ends taped, capped or plugged
when not in use.
6. Flush out low pressure hose whip before connecting to the AMCOMMAND II to prevent debris
from entering system.
7. Attach hose whip to LP supply inlet fitting. Note: When tightening, USE TWO WRENCHES
place one wrench on inlet fitting and hold, turn hose fitting with a second wrench making sure
not to over tighten.
PRE-DIVE CHECK OUT 7.2
1. Be sure both the high pressure valves, pneumo valve, and air supply valves are in the off
(closed) position.
2. Regulator should be set to a low pressure, turn knob counter clockwise until the knob stops.
3. Turn the Diver output valves and pneumo valves to off position.
4. With the yoke bleeder valve in closed position, turn on high pressure air at both SCUBA or
breathing air cylinders. NOTE: Always open high pressure valves slowly, allow system to fill
slowly before opening valves for maximum flow. Check the pressure level of both HP supply’s.
5. Turn on 1 HP supply valve by turning counter clockwise four (4) full turns. Note: 2 HP supply
valve should be in the off position and used as a back-up.
Caution: If both HP valves are opened at the same time, both air supplies will be used
simultaneously. This will result in both bottles being empty at the same time. The purpose of the
two supply’s is to alternate between the two bottles. Use one of the bottles until it reaches 500
PSI, then switch to the second bottle. With a full bottle on line, you can then replace the first bottle
with a full unit.
6. Note the cylinders air pressure by reading the HP supply gauges.
7. Adjust regulator to desired setting by turning knob while monitoring the diver air supply gauge.
Clockwise increases the set pressure.
Note: regulator setting is determined by: required over-bottom pressure for manufacturer’s helmet
or mask plus the bottom pressure relating to the diver’s depth. See section 10-3 for gauge
pressure verses depth chart.
