Airsource Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION

Aqua Lung recommends that you bring your Airsource, buoyancy compensa-

tor and regulator together to your authorized dealer for the installation of your

Airsource. The retailer can also answer any questions you may have pertaining

to the information in this manual. If it is not possible to return to your authorized

dealer, you may install the Airsource onto your BC and attach the MP inflator

hose to your first stage by carefully following the steps in the following proce-

dure.

Attaching Airsource to BC

To install, unscrew original inflator assembly counterclockwise at the shoulder.

Place new Airsource assembly onto threaded portion, and screw clockwise

until tight. Make sure the o-ring gasket is in place and in good condition on the

threaded portion of the bc.

1. Detach the medium pressure (MP) inflator hose

from the hose guides at the middle (figure 2) and

top hose guides.

The Airsource is specifically designed so that the lower unit can be easily

detached and stored with your regulator.

WARNING: DO NOT connect the inflator hose to a high pressure

(hp) port (greater than 200 psi/14 bar). This may cause the hose

to burst when pressurized, which can result in serious injury. If

you are unsure which regulator port is medium pressure (Mp) or

high pressure (hp), consult your regulator's owner's manual or

your dealer before attaching the hose.

WARNING: dO NOT attempt to remove the MP inflator hose from

the Airsource body, as this may cause damage to the hose and/or

body. The Airsource is specifically designed so that the MP infla-

tor hose remains attached to the unit.
