After finishing your dive start with undoing your weight belt.
Then undo in the following order crotch strap, waist belt, and then the shoulder straps. 
Let a buddy help you to lift off your Tech Harness and your breathing apparatus and put it lying

Rinse the Tech Harness with fresh water outside and inside after dive. 
Always let your Tech Harness dry completely before storage over a longer period.

Maintenance

 

 

No other maintenance procedures that you can do yourself other than those described in sec-
tion After Dive is needed. If your Tech harness is heavily contaminated and dirty, or after your 
last dive for the season, it is possible to wash the soft components in a washing machine.
Tumble drying is prohibited.

Always let your Tech Harness dry completely before storage over a longer period. Store in a 
place which is not exposed to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight. 

Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure to chlorinated water, such as in swimming pools. Wash 
your BC immediately after any use in chlorinated water. Chlorinated water can oxidize fabrics 
and materials on your BC, shortening its life, and cause colours to fade. Damage and fading 
from prolonged exposure to chlorinated water is specifically not covered under warranty.

Pre Dive Checks - Diving

 

 

Do not dive with a Tech Harness that is damaged or does not function properly. Before each use 
inspect for proper operation or damage. 
Terminate any dive as safely and quickly as possible if the Tech Harness becomes damaged or 
does not function properly.
Always perform a pre-dive and post-dive inspection of the Tech Harness.
Have your dive partner perform a crosscheck as well. The predive and post-dive Tech Harness 
examinations help identify equipment problems before unsafe conditions exists.
Make absolutely sure your weight system is not entangled, and can be dropped off freely.
Check that you can reach the handles of your weight system to release your own weights.
If a crotch strap is used, check that it is locked and that is does not prevent the release of 
weights.
