WARNING
Cleanliness is imperative in maintaining and handling diving system components. All tools and
parts must be kept free of oil, grease, rust, or other contamination in accordance with Chapter 4,
Section VII of this manual. Foreign substances within an assembly could result in equipment
failure and possible injury or death to personnel.
