Maximum Weight Capacity
The Hook and Loop or SureLock 1 weight system features two interchangeable
weight pouches which can be filled with either block weights or "soft weight"
(pouches containing lead shot), in increments of 4 pounds or less. For ease
of operation, low-profile block weights are strongly recommended. Refer to the
Weight Capacity Chart for maximum weight capacity.
WARNING:
capacity (See Buoyancy and Cylinder Capabilities). The negative
buoyancy of the weight plus the negative buoyancy of the cylinder
(when full), should not exceed the BC's positive buoyancy. The
inability to achieve neutral buoyancy while at depth or positive
buoyancy on the surface may lead to a hazardous situation that
could lead to serious injury or death.
NOTE: Your BC may not be able to float by itself on the surface if your
BC is loaded with weight at or near its maximum buoyancy. In water, the
weight of cylinders and other equipment may contribute to the negative
buoyancy of your full set of SCUBA equipment.
