vironment. The daily and monthly inspections will
determine the necessity for overhaul with greater
accuracy than simply placing a number of hours on
the overhaul schedule. All O-ring’s, exhaust valves,
and soft goods should be replaced at least once a year.
In between overhauls the soft goods can be cleaned
inspect and reused providing a careful inspection
reveals no damage or deterioration. Again, logged
questionable previous diving environments will be
determining factor as well. The A2.1 checklist should
be filled out and retained in the maintenance files
and provides an excellent record of maintenance. All
maintenance should be annotated in the helmet log.
The Overhaul Checklist Procedure A2.1 is intended
to aid persons performing routine overhauls of
KMDSI SuperLite
®
Helmets and Band Masks. The
checklist should be used in conjunction with the
applicable Operations and Maintenance Manual for
the model helmet being serviced and is primarily
intended to guide and document the maintenance
as it is completed. Specific detailed procedures for
each section of this checklist can be found in the
Operations and Maintenance Manuals. This checklist
when completed should be retained in the equipment
maintenance files and the helmet or mask log book
should be updated. The checklist’s are intended to
be used for all models of KMDSI SuperLite
®
and
KM Helmets and band masks. All KMDSI helmet
and band mask manuals can be downloaded free at
