meg hose routing

does any body have pictures of the way the oxygen hose is attached to the head when you mount the cylinders with the valves up? thanks in advance

No picture but....you'll need a shorter version of the hose. In fact you'll need shorter versions of all the hoses. Coincidentally I have just such a set that I'd be happy to part with for cash!

My second hand unit came with the upright cylinder configuration but I couldn't get on with it and have had to buy a full set of standard hoses to get back to the standard configuration.

PM me if you're interested.

I had my configuration with the valves up for a while and I just used the original hose for the O2 and just looped it and tucked away. Therefore he can change back to inverted bottles if needed to again (which I did and glad I didn't modify the O2 hose). I have a second one in my save a dive kit also.

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Hi Steve,

I know that you 'inherited' the setup, but i noticed that the 02 ist stage doesn't appear to be the 02 variant and the guage is a standard scubapro one - did the guy that sld thi to you say that these had been made o2-clean?

Anyone else out there any similar experiences or know how the standard Mk2 O2 ist stage from ISC is o2 cleaned?

Thanks,

Nick

Are they MK25s? I ask as I'm planning on using a pair of MK25s on deco stage bottles and afaik Scubapro themselves only rate them to 40%, and I want maybe 50 or 80%..
