Only use one wing at a time either the Primary or the Backup.
Make sure the wing you are not using is completely empty while diving so that
you only have 1 air space to control.
The Primary wing can be inflated in the following ways:
•
By using the power inflator connected to a tank with an LPI hose
•
By oral inflation by holding down the dump button of the power inflator
and blowing into the mouthpiece
The Primary wing can be vented in the following ways:
•
By using the pull dump while rolling the body to the opposite side when in
a horizontal position to get the dump valve to the highest position of the
wing
•
By using the dump valve on the power inflator when in a head up position
•
By sucking a vacuum on the power inflator when in a head down position
The Backup wing can only be inflated orally using the bite on mouthpiece.
Not having a power inflator connected to the Backup wing avoids any prob-
lems associated with a mechanical failure or accidental inflation of the wing
resulting in a potential buoyant ascent.
To use the oral inflation hose place the very end of the bite on mouthpiece
between your teeth horizontally and make a seal around it with your lips.
