I've bought used Zeagle Ranger and used it in a couple of dives. What I've noticed is that I'm having balance problems while finning. As I fin my body rotates to the left and then gets back in the normal position, synchronous with my leg movement. It seems as if I have to 'trim' myself by keeping my body slightly rotated to the right to compensate. I couldn't figure out what is the cause of the problem. When I look at the inflated BC standing on the floor from birds-eye view it seems as if the right side of the wing bladder is slightly more up than the left(more up when a BC is in a horizontal position, as if you were wearing it while diving). I never had a similar problem when I used a wing BC. My instructor also bought a wing BC and says he has a similar problem and it's only a matter of getting adapted, but in my case I think it's not the problem.
What I also noticed on a check before the last dive is that inflator button sometimes doesn't get back all the way back to normal position after I press it(especially when it's dry), so I have to manually pull it to normal position after each press to make sure it doesn't get stuck in inflating position what happened on a pre-dive check. Instructor said it should be an easy thing to fix, but it would be great if I had some sort of manual for disassembly of this particular inflator.
Thanks in advance.
