To put the mask on:
1. Hold the mask near the breathing tube with one hand, and the straps with the other hand.
2. Bring the mask up to your face and place your chin into the lower part of the mask.
3. Hold the mask against your chin, then pull the straps over your head and allow the mask to sit against
your face - you should feel the edges of the seal pressing against your face.
If necessary, adjust the straps so that the mask seals, however, is not uncomfortably tight against your face.
Ensure that both straps are adjusted equally so that the mask places even pressure on your face. Ensure that
no hair is caught between the mask and your skin. For men, it may be necessary to be clean shaven in order to
achieve the best possible seal.
To use the camera mounting, place a suitable water-proof camera (not supplied) onto the mounting bracket at
the top of the mask, then use the supplied thumb-screw and nut to secure it.
Checking Mask Sealing
To check whether the mask is sealing well, remove the breather tube by lifting its locating tab slightly, then
pulling the tube off. Put the mask on, then use your fingertips to cover the holes where the breather tube
connects. Inhale slowly - you should not be able to breathe freely and should feel the mask pressing harder
against your face - if this is the case, the mask is adequately sealing against your face.
