Mounting Options

NOTE: H.A.B.D. units sold under P/N 1028-00 do not include
the holster. The holster may be purchased as an optional
accessory from an Authorized Aqua Lung Dealer.
When used as an alternate air source for SCUBA diving,
the holster is an integral part of the Micra Air System, and
allows you to mount the M.A.S. in a variety of positions
according to your personal preference. To install the cylin-
der into the holster, roll the neoprene portion down the
outside to expand the opening. Wet the holster around the
opening, and gently guide the end of the cylinder into the
opening. Slide the holster up until it completely covers the
cylinder. Roll the neoprene portion up and inspect around
the opening to ensure there are no tears or cuts that may
allow the cylinder to accidentally fall out when inverted.
The Micra Air System may be mounted in any position that
meets the following requirements:
The second-stage must be positioned on the front of the
diver's torso, where it may be easily accessed and shared
with another diver from either side.
The LP hose must not become trapped beneath or en-
tangled with another piece of equipment or accessory.
The cylinder may be easily removed from the holster by
another diver without any obstructions.
The system will not interfere with the removal or ditch-
ing of weight in an emergency.
The system will not easily become entangled with fishing
line, kelp, nets, or other obstructions.
WARNING: DO NOT attach or mount the M.A.S. to your
weight belt. Doing so may interfere with the removal or
ditching of your weight in an emergency, or result in the loss
of the M.A.S. when you need it most.
Provided that these requirements are met, the M.A.S. may
be mounted in a variety of positions that will best work with
your B.C. or cylinder harness system. Figure 13 illustrates
the three most commonly used options.
