How to adjust Aqualung Slimline Octopus second stage regulator

[caruso]

Hi looking for information on how to adjust the Aqualung Slimline Octopus regulator. I just picked one up online and it's hard to breathe from. I don't service my own regulators I usually send them out as needed but if this is an easy "turn of the screw" adjustment I'd like to know how to do it.

Picture of the regulator is attached to this post. Upon removing the hose I can see a screw inside the orifice where the hose attaches, I can take a picture of that if it's helpful.

Thanks.

Look on this page for the LPO service manual PDF-

This might be real close to what you have. Don't turn the crown unless you're depressing the lever.

Thanks. The manual for my octopus regulator was there. Upon reading it I realize it's too complicated and I don't have the skills, the experience or the tools to make the adjustment.

For the $30 or so it will cost plus a few bucks to ship, I'll have my regulator tech guy look it over and adjust it, I'm not going to bother looking into it further.
