Your Third Lung is designed for shallow water, unobstructed diving and should never be used in enclosed areas, such as
caves, shipwrecks or ledge overhangs. The Third Lung is stable in calm sea conditions. Care should be exercised when
conditions are rough to avoid swamping or inverting the unit. Breaking waves, similar to those found in the surf zone, may
invert or swamp the Third Lung. Care should be exercised when such conditions exist.

WARNINg: DO NOT POUR OIL INTO COMPRESSOR. THIS WILL CONTAMINATE THE COMPRESSOR
AND RUIN IT FOR AIR BREATHINg. BREATHINg FROM A COMPRESSOR THAT HAS HAD OIL
MISTAKENLY ADDED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY. DO NOT SPRAY CORROSION X OR ANY
PETROLEUM BASED PRODUCT ON, IN, OR AROUND THE COMPRESSOR.
The remote intake staff is designed to increase compressor life by making it difficult for water to intrude into the compressor.
An additional benefit, is that it further eliminates the possibility of exhaust fumes entering the breathing air. Even so,
precautions must still be taken to ensure a totally pure air supply. Never operate the equipment in a toxic fume environment
such as near running outboard engines, exposed chemicals or fuel spills. The unit is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY and should
never be run in an enclosed area.
STEP 1
Remove the dust cap from the socket located on top of the compressor, slip the clear PVC staff into the socket as far as it
will go to create a watertight seal in the socket. The dust cap, tied to the socket, must ALWAYS BE IN PLACE WHEN THE
STAFF IS REMOVED. If not, water can splash directly into the compressor head.
STEP 2
CHECKINg/ADDINg OIL
1. Check oil daily before use. There is a hole in the side of the pan for easy access (Figure 1). Reach through the hole
in the side of the pan (Figure 2) and, unscrew the dipstick going counter-clockwise. Remove the dipstick (Figure 3)
and check that the oil level falls inbetween the two hash marks (Figure 4).If it does replace the dipstick and continue.
2. The system will hold 1 pint of oil. If the system is brand new and you are adding oil for the first time, measure out
1 pint of automotive detergent oil (SAE30 or 10W30). Insert the funnel into the oil reservoir and slowly pour the oil
in (Figure 5). Completely screw the oil cap back in and remove one time to check the oil level. Make sure it falls
inbetween the two hash marks on the dipstick.
