Maintenance Tips

• Rinse After Use: Rinse the regulator, pony bottle, and hoses with fresh water after each dive, being careful to keep the regulator dry inside. This will help remove salt, sand, and debris.

• Flush the Regulator: Flush the regulator with clean water by briefly attaching it to a low-pressure source and allowing water to flow through. Do not fully submerge the regulator in water to avoid damaging internal components.

• Inspect the Regulator and Connections: Regularly check the regulator for wear and tear, ensuring that the hoses, O-rings, and connections are in good condition. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately.

• Check for Leaks: Periodically test the regulator by attaching it to the pony bottle, inflating it, and checking for air leaks from the first or second stage. If you find any leaks, inspect the O-rings and connections for wear.

• Clean the Mouthpiece: Clean the mouthpiece of the regulator with mild soap and water. Allow it to dry thoroughly before storing.

• Lubricate O-rings: Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the O-rings on the regulator and QD connection points. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants as they can damage rubber components.

• Dry and Store Properly: After rinsing, hang the regulator and hoses to dry in a cool, dry, and shaded area. Make sure all components are fully dry to avoid mold and mildew.

• Storage of Pony Bottle: Store the pony bottle with minimal pressure (under 200 psi), in a cool, dry place, and avoid direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensure that the QD connection is securely fastened and protected.

• Annual Service: Have the regulator and pony bottle system serviced annually by a qualified technician to ensure everything is functioning properly, including the first and second stages of the regulator.
