BCAUTION
Always allow pressure to build up slowly in the
regulator by turning on the cylinder valve slowly.
Use only Christo-Lube®on the rubber components. Never grease
the parts of your regulator with a lubricant containing hydrocar-
bons, household oil, or motor oil.
Cold Water Diving
Before diving in cold water (water temperature below 10 °C/50 °F),
the diver should be trained and have mastered the techniques of
cold water diving, learning techniques and all precautions neces-
sary to avoid freezing of the regulator. All of this is included in the
training programs of organizations offering courses in diving in
cold water or under ice. You should also use equipment intended
for this purpose. This regulator is CE approved for waters colder
than 10°C /50 degrees F.
In order to reduce the risks of regulator freezing when diving in
cold water (below 10°C), consider doing the following:
1. Protect your regulators from any water entering the rst or
second stages.
2. Protect your equipment from cold before the dive. Keep your
regulator and all its accessories in a warm dry place.
3. Carry out all pre-dive checks of your equipment in a warm dry
place if necessary, before even going to the dive site.
4. Avoid breathing through the regulator or pressing the purge
button in very cold air before entering the water.
5. Check that the air used to ll your cylinder is dry. The water
vapor contained in this air should have a condensation point
below -54°C. Excess water vapor can freeze, causing a free
ow, or blocking the air ow completely.

Kirby Morgan Balanced SCUBA Regulator
Assembly
Thank you for choos-
ing a Kirby Morgan
regulator.
Your new regulator
assembly has been
designed and manu-
factured with pride,
according to Kirby Morgan's world renowned exacting standards
for quality and performance. The Kirby Morgan Balanced SCUBA
Regulator is a high performance regulator which was designed
for the professional SCUBA diver. The second stage is a modi-
ed version of the same regulator used on the Kirby Morgan 97
helmet and stand alone SuperFlow®455 regulator. Many of the
parts used in this SuperFlow®are identical to those used on the
KM 97 helmet and SuperFlow®455 regulator. This is helpful to
dealers in stocking parts for service and repair.
The rst stage used on the SuperFlow regulator is known as our
HiVent rst stage. This regulator was developed from the tech-
nology used in our Kirby Morgan Air Control Systems. It offers
an exceptionally high ow of air with a minimum pressure drop.
Provided it has been purchased new from an Authorized KMDSI

General Precautions and Warnings
© MMXVII Kirby Morgan Dive Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Document # 170814005 17
Dealer, your regulator assembly is covered by KMDSI's Limited
Warranty. Be sure to read and ll out the warranty card com-
pletely and return the bottom portion within ten (10) days of
purchase. Also save your sales receipt. A copy of your receipt must
be presented whenever obtaining warranty service.
Perhaps more than any other piece of diving equipment, your
regulator's function and performance relies greatly on the care
and maintenance it will receive, in addition to regularly scheduled
dealer service. Before you dive with your new Kirby Morgan regu-
lator, it is important to read this guide in its entirety; to become
familiar with its features, as well as the correct procedures for
setup, pre-dive inspection, and post-dive maintenance.
General Precautions and Warnings
Before using this regulator assembly, you must have successfully
received training and certication in the technique of SCUBA
diving from a recognized certication agency (or any Military or
government operated diving school).
Use of this equipment by a person who is not certied by a recog-
nized agency shall render all warranties, express or implied, null
and void. Use of SCUBA equipment by uncertied, or untrained
persons, is dangerous and can result in serious injury or death.
BWARNING
Never lubricate any part of the regulator or cylinder valve
with any lubricant. Lubrication must only be performed by
a KMDSI factory trained technician. Improper lubrication
can lead to regulator malfunction. Drowning can result.
BCAUTION
Do not use the regulator rst stage as a carrying
handle when lifting or transporting the cylinder.
Always lift the cylinder by the cylinder valve handle
without the regulator attached. The regulator can
be damaged if you use it to lift the cylinder.

Preparation and Setup
18 © MMXVII Kirby Morgan Dive Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Document # 170814005
BCAUTION
Factory prescribed service for this regulator as-
sembly must be performed at least once each year
by a factory trained technician who is employed by
an Authorized KMDSI Dealer. Repair, service, disas-
sembly, or rst stage adjustment must not be at-
tempted by persons who are not factory trained and
authorized by KMDSI.
BCAUTION
Do not leave a cylinder standing unsecured with
the regulator attached to the valve. Doing so may
cause permanent damage to the regulator and cyl-
inder valve if the cylinder falls over against the rst
stage.
Preparation and Setup
KMDSI recommends that you bring your regulator assembly to
your Authorized KMDSI Dealer for the installation of any acces-
sory items, including instrumentation, LP quick disconnect hoses,
and alternate air sources. Your dealer can also answer any ques-
tions you may have pertaining to the information in this guide.
1. If the adjustment knob has been turned "out" (counter-clock-
wise), turn it "in" (clockwise) until a clicking noise can be
heard. This indicates full spring pressure has been acheived.
2. If you are using a standard cylinder with a yoke connector
valve, inspect the cylinder valve O-ring for any wear or dam-
age.
Mounting the First Stage Onto the Cylinder
Valve (Yoke Connector)
1. Partially unscrew the yoke screw of the rst stage regulator so
that the dust cap can be removed from the lter and air inlet.
2. With the cylinder valve facing away from you, release a small
amount of air from the cylinder. When air is heard exiting,

Balance Purge Tube and Regulator Installation

immediately close the valve. This will clear any moisture or
debris that may be inside the cylinder valve outlet opening.
3. Place the rst stage regulator over the cylinder valve so that
the inlet tting aligns with the O-ring of the cylinder valve,
and the LP hose of the primary second-stage will be routed
over the right shoulder. While holding the rst stage in place,
turn the yoke screw clockwise. Ensure that the yoke screw
mates into the small dimple on the backside of the cylinder
valve, and tighten nger tight only.
4. If a submersible pressure gauge is attached to the rst stage,
ensure that the gauge is facing away from you. Pressurize
the regulator by slowly turning the cylinder valve handwheel
counter-clockwise. Continue turning the cylinder valve hand
wheel counter-clockwise until it is fully open, and then turn
back clockwise ¼ - ½ turn.
5. Listen near the rst stage to check for any leakage. If leakage
is detected, immerse the rst stage and cylinder valve while
pressurized to determine the source.
6. If leakage has been detected, follow the procedure for remov-
ing the regulator from the cylinder valve. If air was leaking
between the rst stage and cylinder valve, replace or reseat
the cylinder valve O-ring as needed and repeat the above
procedure. If leakage persists, do not dive with the regulator!
Return the regulator to a KMDSI Dealer.

Balance Purge Tube and Regulator Installation
20 © MMXVII Kirby Morgan Dive Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Document # 170814005
This regulator was specically designed to work with the M-48
SCUBA pod assembly as well as being a standalone scuba regu-
lator.
The Sleeve P/N 220-057, Purge Tube P/N 220-087, and Tie Wrap
P/N 520-038 will be used to replace the original Tilt to Purge
valve. Using the new parts will eliminate the need to manually
purge any accumulated water from inside the pod. This will now
become an automatic function.
1. After removing the regulator from the POD, clean and care-
fully inspect the pod assembly for damages such as cuts in
the rubber, cracked or broken parts. Replace as necessary.
Remove the tie wrap from around the tilt to purge valve and
remove the plastic tilt valve assembly P/N 805-047, as well as
the small internal valve body insert and its exhaust valve as
a unit. Inspect the valve and valve body for damages, Clean
and replace as necessary. Also make sure the sealing surfaces
of the pod, where the valve will insert, have been thouroughly
cleared.
2. Reinstall ONLY the valve
body insert with its valve,
back into the water dump
tube on the POD. Push it
in all the way. YOU WILL
NO LONGER NEED THE
TILT TO PURGE VALVE
ASSEMBLY.
BWARNING
Only the KMDSI mouthpiece, P/N 810-022L, will function
correctly in your SCUBA POD. Do not attempt to use any
other manufacturer’s mouthpiece. Doing so could result
in death by drowning
