GUARDIAN FULL FACE MASK POSSIBLE EXHAUST DIAPHRAGM PROBLEM

As of November 10, 2010, Ocean Technology Systems (OTS) Management has issued an Urgent Safety Notice as follows:

It has been brought to our attention that under certain conditions and/or usages, the Guardian Full Face Mask (GFFM) Exhaust Assembly may come loose. If this assembly comes loose and separates from the housing, you will not be able to breathe the 2nd stage regulator. This is a result of a defective part with bad threads. It is extremely important that you conduct a simple test to ensure your 2nd stage regulator is securely fastened If you find any problem whatsoever with the 2nd stage,
"DO NOT DIVE THE MASK".

Please see link for instruction on how to test the exhaust system. http://www.oceantechnologysystems.com/GFFM-NOTICE-E.html
