Push the lever forward until it stops in the pre-locked position (this
keeps you fingers from being caught in lever) (Fig. 10). Push the lever

typically not needed.

Check the cylinder band is secure by pulling on the band while holding
down the cylinder at the valve. If the cylinder band moves, it is too loose.
Check the macro adjustment is set for the correct size cylinder. Repeat steps
1-4 of Securing the GripLock™ Cylinder Band to tighten and secure the
cylinder band.
WARNING:
Verify the tension of the cylinder band prior to every dive. Failure to do
so may result in the cylinder tension slipping during the course of a dive.
