STORAGE OF ZIPSEALS
Not going to be using your drysuit
for a while? Removing the ZipSeals
from the drysuit and placing them in
an airtight container will help them
last longer. Be sure to remove as
much air from the container as
possible. As the latex seals used in
DUI's ZipSeals are natural rubber,
storing the ZipSeals in this manner
will help reduce deterioration by
ozone.
ZipGloves
™
There are two types of
ZipGloves: ZipGloves and
ZipGloves-WD.
Installing All ZipGloves
1.Your drysuit must be equipped
with ZipRings on the sleeves.
Remove the wrist ZipSeal from the
sleeve (see Removing Wrist ZipSeals
on other side)

2. Apply a small amount of soapy
water into the grooves on the
ZipGlove (1 part mild dish soap to 10
parts water).
3. Invert the ZipGlove so you can
get your fingertips on the inside of
the ZipRing (this will help you press
the rings together).
4. Line up the palm of the ZipGlove
with the seam on the arm of the
drysuit (make sure you are putting the
correct hand on the sleeve - i.e. left
glove on the left arm)
5. Line up the grooves on the
ZipGlove with the grooves on the
sleeve.
6. Press together.You should feel the
grooves "click" together.

7. Run your fingers along the entire
ring to ensure they are secure.
8. Repeat the procedure on the
other sleeve.
Removing ZipGloves
Remove ZipGloves the same way as
removing wrist ZipSeals. Please see
other side.
Diving with ZipGloves
Put on the liner before putting your
hand in the gloves. More than one
liner can be worn at a time for
colder water applications.The liners
are made with fast drying insulation
which is used in a wide variety of
industrial cold/wet applications.
After putting on the drysuit with
ZipGloves, secure the wrist strap on
the gloves. Do not over tighten the
wrist strap as this could restrict
blood flow to the hands.
ZipGloves-WD™
This unique system is intended for
dives where the risk of a glove
leaking as a result of damage is high
or the diver prefers to have a
redundant seal on their wrist.To
provide this redundant seal,
ZipGloves-WD are equipped with a
WristDam™; a donut-shaped wrist
seal.
When properly fitted, the WristDam
allows air to travel between the suit
and gloves during the dive for added
warmth and comfort.The WristDam
will also mitigate water intrusion
should the glove become damaged
during the dive.

Trimming the WristDam
1.Turn the opening of the ZipRing
inside-out as it will make it easier to
get to the inside WristDam.
2. Use the trim lines for fitting the
WristDam to your wrist size.The
lines on the WristDam are only a
guide.You can make smaller
adjustments to the opening size by
trimming less on the WristDam.
3.The rings are counted from the
outside in.The ring farthest from
the opening is ring 1. A new pair of
gloves has the WristDam trimmed
on line 8.
