Speargun Care and Instructions
Speargun Care and Instructions
To get the most of your speargun performance and to make sure to extend its lifetime, please follow the steps below:
- Avoid dropping the speargun on the sand as the grains may scratch the surface of the finishing as well as clog the mechanism.
- Salt can be very tough on gear. After each use, ensure to thoroughly rinse your speargun with freshwater. Your teak speargun does not need to be cleaned with any cleaning materials or chemicals. Freshwater is all it needs.
- Don’t dry in direct sunlight. Direct UV rays may affect the colour of teak.
- Ensure the gear is dry before storing it.
- If you find that teak is getting a bit dull after awhile, a single coat of teak oil will bring it right back to life. When the speargun is completely dry, grab a soft cloth, pour a small amount of teak oil on the cloth (Starbright brand or similar) and wipe down the speargun. The teak will absorb the oil making the speargun look brand new.
- Ever so often, a drop of WD40 (or similar) into the mechanism will ensure that all parts are properly lubricated and run smoothly.
- When you notice your shooting line starting to look used up, please change it. This is one of the main reasons why the shooting line will break.
- If you have to replace bands or shafts, please use the same dimensions as provided with the speargun (if other dimensions are used, the warranty on the speargun will be null and void). If in doubt of the dimensions and specs of the bands and shafts, please contact
