3. Closely inspect the opening of the valve seat adapter to ensure that no debris, residue or
moisture is present.
CAUTION: If moisture is found to be present inside the valve seat adapter opening, this indicates
that water may have entered the cylinder. DO NOT fill or attempt to use the auxiliary air cylinder until
it has received complete inspection and any required service by a factory trained service technician.

Filling the Auxiliary Air Cylinder with a Fill Adapter

NOTE: The Odyssea does not include a fill adapter. This adapter (PN 840817) may be purchased
separately (Fig. 3).
CAUTION: Do not attempt to fill the auxiliary air cylinder directly from a supply cylinder unless
you have received the necessary training and authorization to do so. If done incorrectly, this
procedure poses certain hazards which may cause severe injury or death.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to fill the auxiliary air cylinder from a supply cylinder where the
regulated pressure exceeds 2900 PSI (200 BAR). Doing so could cause a dangerous malfunction
to the fill adapter or weaken the cylinder, resulting in serious injury or death.
1. Using a calibrated pressure gauge, check that the supply cylinder is filled to 2900 PSI (200 BAR). It
is very important to ensure that the auxiliary air cylinder is filled to its total capacity, but not overfilled.
2. Inspect the o-ring at the end of the fill adapter to make sure it is in good condition. Check that
the threads on the fill adapter are clean and not damaged. Screw the fill adapter onto the cylinder
valve until fingertight (Fig. 4).
3. Loosen the fill adapter yoke screw as needed so that the dust cap can be removed from the inlet fitting.
4. Inspect the supply cylinder o-ring to make sure it is present, in good condition and seated evenly
in the supply cylinder valve.
