Not exactly a newb to regulator innards but this is my first Scubapro product with the Micro-Adjust feature. The manual says this:
It is my opinion that the "MUST" should read MUST NOT as otherwise readjusting the orifice undoes the Micro-Adjustment that I just did? The way I see it is that with the Micro-Adjust at a neutral position per the MM and the adjustment knob fully out we adjust the orifice to get lever height correct and I usually set my regs to just barely, ever so lightly, flow when the knob is fully turned out. Once a new seat on the poppet is broken in and takes a set I then use the Micro-Adjust to back poppet spring tension down until I get 1.0-1.2 inches on my Magnehelic (and again with the knob fully out, a very slight, almost imperceptible free flow).
Anyways, if I follow the Scubapro MM my G260 breath like (insert popular name for excrement here) and if I do it my way they breath almost as good as a G250 or a lowly AL Core .
Is Scubapro full of (excrement)?
My brand new and hardly dived Mark 17 Evo had a loose yoke retention nut! Might want to apply the correct torque per your MM Scubapro! If that happens in use more (excrement) happens . Just saying .
