XS Scuba Buoyancy Compensator manual Releasable Trim Weights, Lock Integrated Weight System

BC Owner’s Manual 9.

Releasable Trim Weights

If your BC is equipped with this feature, you will find two releasable weight compartments located on the backside of either the air cell or the harness – on opposite sides. These are each designed to hold up to 5 pounds (10 pounds total) of weight to supplement and counter-balance the weight that you wear on your weight belt or X-Lock™ Integrated Weight System. The weight in these pockets can be “dumped” by grasping the strap on the bottom of the pocket and pulling downward firmly.

X-Lock™ Integrated Weight System

Some XS Scuba models are also equipped with two X-Lock™ weight pockets, located inside the front lower portions of the BC. These pockets can be easily identified by their plastic pull handles that face toward the center of the waistband. The X-Lock™ pockets are designed to each hold a maximum weight of 10 lbs., for a combined total of 20 lbs.

Experiment with different sizes of weight until you arrive at the configuration that best suits your personal preference and provides maximum comfort.
