Theory, principles and operation of dive equipment.
Routine, recommended care and maintenance procedures, and equipment storage.
Common problems with equipment and recommended professional maintenance procedures.
Simple suggestions for comfortable equipment configurations and an introduction to new equipment.
Optional trying of new or unfamiliar equipment in confined water may be included.
