TRANSCRIPT
Three Station K9 HRD Water Training System
Deep‐water / boat system (wt attached scuba tank)
Shoreline system – “hot”
Both shoreline systems can be operated simultaneously (from a single onshore tank), and up to 200 feet apart
Shoreline system – “negative”

Basic System Components
Submersible pressure gauge
First stage regulator
Yellow hose (deep water air supply)
Detachable dolly (for easy transport)
Two Station Shoreline Configuration
Compressed air tank
Fl t l l fFlow control valve for negative station (no check valve needed)
Flow control valve (for “hot” station)
System Components
For deep water use, be sure to dj t th i ladjust the air pressure valve before you submerge the unit to lake bed
System in Action
Shoreline system, using teaser toy to get K9 interested in “hot” bubbles
Identifying “trained indication” when in scent: paws splashing and lowering nose into water when source is strongest
System Components
The pressure gauge shows how much air is left
System ComponentsFront check valve prevents water from entering “Y” strainer
Bushing and female adapter to connectBushing and female adapter to connect “Y” strainer to front check valve
“Y” strainer (holds source material)
Bubble Disperser
Y strainer (holds source material)
Non‐rusting brass bushing connects “Y” strainer to rear check valve
Rear check valve prevents source odor from flowing back into air tank
Bubble flow rate valve (can range from high bubble flow to just one or two small bubbles every few seconds)
Hose to first‐stage air regulatorQuick disconnect
Negative Source System
Quick disconnect (to air supply)(to air supply)
Lake bed component: check valve, bubble disperser, 5lb weight
“D” ring for attaching line to raise and lower lake bed unit –note: hand reel not shown
System Components
Lead rope is attached every 24‐inches (to assure that tubing sinks to lake bed)
System ComponentsDrip‐system tubing – some care must be taken when coiling / uncoiling to prevent tangling or kinking
Connecting the “teaser lure” to hot station using a brass double eye clipstation, using a brass double eye clip.Note: rope coiled on hand reel
5‐pound lead diving weight anchors air line on the bottom of the lake
D‐ring attached to check valve ( tt h d t b li )(attached at brass clip)
System Components
Quick disconnect used to attach control valve to air supply (allows for easy pp y ( yswitching between different training stations)
