1. Like all connections on your Scuba set-up, the connection between the corrugated hose and the Octo-Z should be checked for tightness before each dive. The Collar should be tightened using the fingers, with enough force so that it will not become accidentaly loosened during the dive.
NITROX USE Zeagle regulators are manufactured using materials suitable for use with oxygen enriched gases (i.e., Nitrox, etc.) providing the oxygen content does not exceed 40%. The regulator must be kept “Oxygen Clean”...
Your Octo-Z has a large Threaded Coupling that attaches the large Corrugated Hose to the Octo-Z Body. Prior to setting up your gear for a dive, your Octo-Z will be in your regulator bag with your primary regulator, not drag- ging in the dirt at the end of your Corrugated BC hose like other Reg/Inflator Combination units.

Z can be attached to the corrugated hose. Make this connection by bringing the coupling on the corrugated hose to the male thread on the Octo-Z and screwing the two together by hand. Tighten the collar (clockwise) snuggly with your fingers, not a wrench.
Octo-Z, push the Purge Cover gently inwards to allow compressed air to blow the water out of the Octo-Z for you. Once the housing is clear of water, you can begin breathing normally.
QD fitting means that unlike most Reg/Inflator combinations of this style, you can easily rotate the mouthpiece outwards to make the Octo-Z more accessible to another diver if you prefer to hand off your Octopus (Safe-second) regulator instead of your primary regulator.
Octo-Z. When you have finished exhaling, release the oval Inflate Button. Repeat as necessary. To deflate your BC, you can pull the Octo-Z out away from you BC to apply tension to the cable release on your BC’s shoulder mounted Dump Valve (if equipped).
A LITTLE LEAKAGE IS OK. MAINTENANCE It is essential that your Octo-Z is checked at least annually by an authorized Zeagle regulator technician. Unusually heavy use, or use in dirty or contaminated water may result in the need for more frequent service.
