Icon5 >> Question's for the Daytona Pro's <<

Like all Daytona's I have two pushers and the center Trip-Lock Crown...

When I have screwed down my crown on my Subs, and as well with this 116509 in the past I get a rubber feel 3/4 way thru and i continue screwing down until there's a lot of resistance, but not till it bottoms out.

Now on the 2 smaller pushers, I don't get a rubber feel when i screw them down. It feels like it just bottoms out metal to, oops i mean Gold To Gold. Is it supposed to be like that?

And, also with the Daytona do the pushers, as well as the center trip-lock Crown both provide the same water tightness, or would the pushers be less?

Lastly, a couple of the times the pusher has came loose, slightly and that's an unnerving feeling. Are my pushers normal?

Sounds normal. Pusher screws are just to keep from activating under water. No gaskets like on the crown. But there is still a seal in there. I wear mine out and they are loose most of the time.

Totally normal Sam

The pusher screws have no rubber o rings or gaskets and are just metal to metal

Pushers are 100m rated. Crown is way more.

Also, have a read of this
