3. Once the neck seal has been tacked in at least 10 places, lightly
heat the entire outside of the neck seal to tack all portions of the
seal into place.
4. Cover the neck seal with the non-stick fabric template provided.
Carefully use the iron to melt the adhesive on the neck seal. Apply
heat to a single section for at least 30 seconds using maximum
hand pressure before advancing iron to the next section leaving
some overlap with the previously heated section. See Figure 27.
5. Continue around the perimeter of the neck seal applying heat
and pressure.
6. Let the neck seal and fabric cool and then remove the circle jig.
7. Inspect for proper adhesion by examining the entire perimeter on
both the inside and outside of the suit.
8. Pinhole leaks may be corrected by re-heating the area for an
additional 30 seconds using maximum pressure.
INSPECT REPLACEMENT
After installation is complete the suit should be leak tested before use.
If a leak originates from a wrinkle in the fabric, the neck seal should
be removed and a fresh neck seal installed. Repeat the leak test.
Once you have verified there are no leaks your new neck seal is now
ready to be used.
