Initial Set Up; Standard Cinch: Cylinder Strap Set-Up And Attachment - Scubapro REBEL BC Manual Del Usuario

⚠ WARNING
Do not use your BC as an assist or "lift bag" for bringing objects to the surface. These
objects may be lost during the ascent, creating a sudden increase in buoyancy and loss
of buoyancy control.

5. INITIAL SET UP

Low Pressure (LP) hose
Connect the low pressure (LP) hose of the Power Inflation Valve to an unused LP port of the
first stage, that must have the same thread (fig. 1).
⚠ WARNING
Do not attach a L.P. hose to a SCUBA regulator high pressure (HP) port or to an air supply
with pressure in excess of 200 psi (13.8 bar). This may result in damage or explosive
failure of the Inflation Valve or Low pressure Hose, which could result in injury or death.

Standard cinch: cylinder strap set-up and attachment

The SCUBAPRO® standard cinch lets you quickly release any single tank from the BC vest.
It must be installed as follows:
1. Rotate the buckle until it snaps into the open position. Slide the strap around the plastic
buckle as shown in the figure (Fig. 2-4), wet the strap before clamping it in place on the
tank, and adjust the length (Fig. 2-7).
2. If the BC has a hard backplate, place the cavity (S) of the backplate on the shoulder of the
tank (Fig. 2-6) and then fasten the strap (Fig. 2-5 and 2-7) of the quick-release belt (W1)
around the tank.
On BCs with hard backplates, the safety strap (L) (Fig. 2 – 6) is fastened at the top of
the backplate to prevent the BC from slipping downward while the strap is fastened and
closed. Once adjusted correctly, it helps relocate the right position for the tank on the BC
in an easy, repetitive way.
