INSTALLATION OF THE DIVING CONCEPTS SNAP-ONTM DRYGLOVE KIT WITH AN INNER LATEX WRIST SEAL

 

Turn the arm of your drysuit  inside out.  Open the end of your latex seal on your drysuit and push the suit connector inside the latex seal of the suit.  Once it is inside the latex seal, turn it 90 degrees to the orientation shown in this photo (suit side of the suit connector toward the opening in the latex wrist sea).
  • Secure the latex wrist seal to the suit connector by placing an outer glove (OG) O-Ring next to the "ridge" in the first groove toward the suit side of the suit connector.
Pull the arm of your drysuit right side out to expose the major ridge on the suit connector.  Pull the arm slowly when the ridge is almost exposed to prevent the seal from coming off of the suit connector.
  • Secure the latex seal with another outer glove (OG) O-Ring by placing it in the second groove on the suit side of the suit connector.
The Diving Concepts dryglove can now be connected to the suit connector ring.  You will be able to easily connect your dryglove, but you will also retain an inner latex seal.  In the event that you tear your dryglove, water will not enter your drysuit.  However, unless you have some way of equalizing the pressure in your hands, the glove squeeze you may feel below 100 feet may be to uncomfortable.  Above 100 feet, glove squeeze will not be an issue
Your latex seal has now been converted into an easy to use dryglove system.  Now you can enjoy warm hands with the Diving Concepts Snap-OnTM Dryglove Kit!
