Servicing own reg - Mares MR22 w/ Abyss

[Jaevis]

Hi,

I would like to try to service my own reg. It is a Mares MR22 Abyss second stage. Can anyone offer any advice. Any service manuals, drawings, etc would be well appreciated.

Thank you.

The Mares abyss Second stage is nothing too complicated. You don't even need a seatright away if it hasn't been flipped yet. Other than that, it is all metal and all you need is a couple wrenches, and an allen key. I doubt you even need the diagrams.

No proprietary tools are necessary to overhaul the MR22 Abyss. Off the top of my head you need:

-IP gauge
-First stage handle
-4, 5 , 6 & 10 mm Allen keys
-5.5 mm nut driver (7/32 inch works)
-various wrenches for the hoses and first stage pieces:
14,17 (2), 25, 32 mm open end. Or a big adjustable ( not recommended) Other sizes for the other hoses.
-snapring pliers
Screwdriver for the second stage retaining ring.

You can fake the poppet and seat tools with pencils with erasers. Make a lever height gauge out of plastic. 8mm for the MR22.

I may have left something out, so read the manual first.
