IMPORTANT!

Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure to chlorinated water, such as in swimming pools.
Wash your BC immediately after any use in chlorinated water. Chlorinated water can oxidize fabrics and materials on your
BC, thereby shortening its life, and cause colors (especially neon) to fade. Damage and fading from prolonged exposure to
chlorinated water is specij cally not covered under warranty.

Storage

Store your BC, after it has fully dried, by partially ink ating and then placing it in a cool, dark, dry, location: ultraviolet rays will
shorten the life of the fabric and cause colors to fade. Slightly grease (with SCUBAPRO Lubricant Grease) Power Ink ator
couplings.

15. X-TEK SIDEMOUNT BC

Diving with a sidemount BC is different from a standard BC. The sidemount BC uses a wing styled bladder.

Wings:

1) 25 lbs Wing, 120N lift (PN 21.726.200), designed for use in warm water with up to to 2 x 80 CUFT Aluminum Tanks.
Don´t use more than 8 Kilos of weight with this wing to ensure sufj cient lift.
2) 45 lbs Wing, 200N lift (PN 21.726.400), designed for use in all water temperatures and for drysuit diving, with up to 2
x 80 CUFT Aluminum Tanks.
Each Wing is constructed of a 1000D CORDURA outer cover and one inner bladder constucted from Soltane (0,35mm).
Be aware of the position of the valves when you dek ate the bladder. If you want to dek ate the bladder in a head down
position you have to make sure that exhaust valves are at the highest position in relationship to the air bubble inside the
bladder.
For normal dek ation of your BC you may have to assume a head up position.
WARNING
!
Wing BCs are built for a stable position under water. The X-TEK jacket is not a life jacket. The inñ ated jacket
doesn't guarantee an unconscious diver will be in a safe heads-up position at the surface.
IMPORTANT!
The use of the X-Wing TEK BCs should be practiced in a controllable environment, e.g. in a swimming pool before diving.
The user must be familiar with the operation and skills needed to safely use the system. Failure to be fully competent in the
use of the jacket may result in serious injury or death!
