Bc Entry/Adjustment/Exit - Oceanic BCD Manual Del Usaurio

TESTING MOUNTING OF THE BC
• Verify that the BC is firmly secured to the tank by lifting the entire assembly by the shoulders of the
BC. No movement should be seen between the BC tank band and the tank.
• If the band moves on the tank, check threading of the band and repeat the adjustment procedure.
WARNING: Nylon will naturally stretch after becoming wet. Wet the tank band, check
adjustment, and ensure that the tank band is secure prior to each dive. Failure to
properly adjust and tighten the tank band may result in the tank falling out of the BC
tank band underwater.

BC ENTRY/ADJUSTMENT/EXIT

BC ENTRY
• Loosen the shoulder straps by lifting up on the bottom tabs of the shoulder buckles.
• Open the waist band, and disconnect the touch fastener on the waist strap and chest strap if
provided on your model.
• Have your buddy hold the BC/tank assembly while you put your arms through the shoulder straps
and pull it onto your back.
BC ADJUSTMENT
• Once the assembly is on your back, adjust it to comfortably fit your waist size and height.
• After placing it on your shoulders as described above, fasten the waist band comfortably at the
desired height until there is about 4 inches of overlapping closure.
• If there is too much or too little overlap, take off the BC assembly and alter the rear waist band
closure located on the back of the BC, below the tank strap.
