I?m still trying to figure out which of the two buttons controls the purge function. Can someone please clarify this for me?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your review of the Scubapro S360 Octopus. I’ve checked the manual, and it states that the button on top of the octopus controls the second stage release button, whereas the lower button on the side is actually the purge button. Please ensure your octopus is assembled with the correct side facing you. If you’re still unsure, I’d be happy to guide you through it further.
