Loading Soft Weight into the Weight Pouches
Aqua Lung recommends block weights
be used in the weight pouches for the
best fit and ease of insertion. Soft
weights may be used, but it is critical
that the weights be loaded and secured
correctly. The procedure for loading soft
weights is the same as block weights,
but it is important to ensure the soft
weights are completely fitted into the
weight pouch. This will ensure that the
weight pouch is properly engaged and
secured in place.
NOTE: Some weight pouches are specially pre-formed to fit the contour
of your waist. Do not attempt to bend or straighten a pre-formed pouch.
Installing the Hook and Loop Weight Pouches
CAUTION:
attempt to don your BC when it is fully loaded with weight. You
may otherwise risk injury due to muscle strain or a temporary
loss of balance.
The hook and loop pouches are installed
with the smooth panel facing outward.
To install either pouch, slide the closed
end of the pouch into the opening of the
pocket. Fold the retaining flap (A) over
the loop material (B) and firmly run your
hand over the flap to securely seal the
hook and loop of the weight system.
Aqua Lung strongly recommends that you do not
