Subject: Halcyon Manifold Recall

Halcyon is committed to manufacturing dive gear that exceeds the industry's 
highest standards. Nevertheless, we recognize that a component has been 
shipped to our customers that does not meet our expectation of quality. 
Because we never lose sight of the safety of our customers, we are 
announcing a recall of the rubber handwheels used on the Halcyon manifolds 
that shipped from May 1 until the first of July, along with the procedure 
that will need to be followed to ensure a quick and unbureaucratic handling 
of the issue.

Please be advised that the rubber hand-wheels on the Halcyon manifold (item 
#64.100.300) shipped between May 1, 2001 and July 1, 2001 have proven to be 
defective. These handwheels are unlike the units used in previous or later 
sales of Halcyon manifolds. In use, the defective handwheels can separate 
from their stainless steel inserts, making it impossible to turn the valves 
on or off. Use of these handwheels should be discontinued immediately and 
returned to Halcyon for replacement. The defective handwheels can be 
difficult to distinguish from good ones and should be returned if in 
question. Photos of the correct and defective inserts can be viewed online 
at http://www.halcyon.net/recall/. We apologize for any inconvenience this 
recall may cause; however, we are determined to keep diving safety the 
number one priority at Halcyon Manufacturing.

If you have a question about a Halcyon manifold purchased after May 1, 
2001, please write to us with your questions at info@ha*.ne* or call 
Halcyon at 386.454.0811. If you believe you have a defective handwheel, 
please return it for replacement to:

Halcyon Mfg., Inc.
Attn: Returns
1110 South Main St.
High Springs, FL 32643
