You can also inflate your BC manually using the Octo-Z. If you are
underwater, inhale from the Octo-Z and then push the oval Oral Inflate
button (see Fig. 4). While depressing the button, exhale into the Octo-
Z. Your breath will be directed into the bladder of your BC. At the end
of your exhalation, release the oval Button. If you are at the surface,
inhale the surrounding air through your mouth, put the Octo-Z mouth-
piece into your mouth, press the oval Oral Inflate Button and exhale
into the Octo-Z. When you have finished exhaling, release the oval
Inflate Button. Repeat as necessary.
To deflate your BC, you can pull the Octo-Z out away from you BC
to apply tension to the cable release on your BC’s shoulder mounted
Dump Valve (if equipped). You can also deflate your BC by holding
the Octo-Z extended above the position of your BC’s bladder while
pressing the same oval Oral Inflate/Deflate button you used to inflate
the BC. In this case, air will exit the Octo-Z from the BC bladder.
POST-DIVE CARE
After the dive, disconnect your Octo-Z from the corrugated hose (see
Fig. 3). Keep your Octo-Z with your main regulator at all times and
if possible NEVER disconnect it from the Inflator Hose QD (see Fig.
1). Run fresh clean water into the mouthpiece until it runs out of
the Exhaust Valve. DO NOT PRESS THE PURGE COVER WHILE
DOING THIS.
After rinsing, reconnect the regulator to an air supply and thoroughly
shake all excess water from the Octo-Z. Press the Purge cover (with
the regulator attached to a pressure source) and the round inflate but-
ton several times to blow the rinse water out of the inner mechanism.
Allow the entire regulator to air dry before storing. For reasons of
hygiene, equipment subjected to frequent use in training, rental, etc.
should finally rinsed in water containing a suitable sterilizing agent.
The best sterilizing solutions for your regulator are soap based. If any
stronger chemicals are used, make the immersion very brief and rinse
the regulator out again thoroughly.
