• Annual Maintenance
• Cressi-Sub recommends complete regulator maintenance at least once a
year, or more frequently in the case of particularly intense use;
• Maintenance must include replacement of all components provided in the
annual equipment maintenance kit;
• The special tools for maintenance of this equipment are illustrated on page 8
of this document;
• Metal parts must be washed with hot water and neutral detergent and rinsed
in fresh water. Any concretions must be removed using ultrasound cleaning or
with diluted acid solutions, always followed by long and thorough rinsing
under running water;
• Do not use acids or solvents on rubber components;
• The new ORs must be greased with a thin layer of silicon grease: this
procedure reduces to a minimum the risk of damage during assembly;
• The metal threading can be lubricated with grease on the first two rings of
threading.
