Figure #3: The opposite end of the tool cross tee is used to hold the bushing system in place while the piston assembly is inserted from the other side of the body. The center bore in the tool allows the piston bullet to pass through the bushing system and into the tool.

The end of the T-Tool is broached with a 3/8” square socket to accommodate using a 3/8” torque wrench thereby eliminating the need for the separate HP Cap Socket.

This tool comes packaged with a special Atomic Piston Bullet.

The Atomic Pin-Lok First Stage Tool provides a "scratch proof" method of separating the first stage body on both the titanium and chrome plated brass models.

The main body of the tool is machined from 2" acetal rod and the drive cap screws are solid nylon. These materials allow the swivel cap to be disassembled/assembled from the first stage body with no metal-to-metal contact between the tool and the first stage.

The head of the nylon cap screw is utilized as a thumb screw and only finger pressure is required to set the tool. The tips of the nylon cap screws are machined to index with any two opposite drive holes in the first stage swivel cap.

Atomic Aquatics Packing Tool is designed to efficiently install MCG 111 ChristoLube into the ambient chamber of Atomic Aquatics first stages. The first stage should be clean and free of water before packing. The Packing Tool replaces the cap and swivel assembly during packing operations. Note: It is easier to install the trim ring onto the first stage body (after packing) if the yoke (DIN), yoke nut, and saddle are not installed. All other components should be installed in accordance with Atomic Aquatics assembly procedures.

Packing Procedures:

1. Fill the packing tool body with ChristolLube and
    insert plunger.
2. Remove the trim ring from the regulator body.
3. Push the tool assembly all the way onto the first
    stage body (ensure the O-ring is installed on the
    body).
4. Push the plunger on the tool to inject the
    lubricant into the first stage ambient chamber
    until the lubricant starts to exit all four ambient
    chamber ports.
5. Slide the trim ring over the tool and into the trim
    ring groove in the first stage body.
6. Install and tighten the first stage cap and swivel
    assembly
 

Figure #3: The poppet alignment installation tool controls the rotation of the poppet so that it will mate properly with the demand lever. In order for the poppet to pass the lever tabs, the lever must be elevated to its highest point (slightly beyond vertical)Insert the poppet into the tool as shown in Figure #3. Align the reference flat on the tool with the lever flat machined into the air inlet tube. Insert the poppet into the air inlet tube until it is fully installed. Lower the lever and retract the tool.

The Atomic Aquatics Cover/Rim Clamps are designed to dislodge a stuck diaphragm retaining cover/rim on Atomic Aquatics Ti/B2 & M1 second stages.

Note: The Ti2/B2 Rim Clamp has two ledges machined into opposite sides of the clamp. The square bottom ledge fits the Ti2 and the rounded ledge fits the B2.

The clamp is used by inserting the stuck rim into the clamp until the rim contacts the stop ledge. The clamp is then captured in a bench vise so that the split side of the clamp is inside the vise jaws. "Gently" tightening the vise jaws pinches the entire rim without distorting the case. The second stage body can then be used as leverage to unthread the rim without damage.

The clamps also have two self centering tabs machined into the side of the clamp opposite the split. The tabs index with the notches in the castle ring that retains the diaphragm assembly. The castle retaining ring can be easily removed/installed using this tool feature.

The clamp is machined from aluminum alloy and vibratory finished. Instructions included.
