    CAUTION The high-pressure outlets (HP Ports) are distinctly larger than the low-pressure outlets. Only devices with fittings, hoses, and components designed for the full tank pressure that the regulator will be mounted on, such as Submersible Pressure Gauges, are to be installed in these ports.

    FIRST STAGES The first stage reduces the high pressure air contained in the cylinder to a constant intermediate pressure of approximately 135 p.s.i. (9.2 BAR). Zeagle first stages are designed to do this with outstanding reliability.

    If you hear any leaks, turn the tank valve off. Do not use the regulator until the source of the leak has been found and corrected by an autho- rized Zeagle Scuba service technician. Always mount the regulator on the valve with the clear diaphragm end (with the black logo showing underneath) pointed downwards.
  • Page 14: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE It is essential that your regulator is checked at least annually by an autho- rized Zeagle regulator technician. Unusually heavy use, or use in dirty or contaminated water may result in the need for more frequent service. A service record has been provided at the end of this manual to assist you in keeping your regulator’s service up to date.
