back of vertical. In a relaxed floating position, verify that your mouth
is well above the water’s surface. Note the effect of where you hold
your legs and how you float.
6) Get out of the water and remove the Inflatable PFD. Completely
deflate the Inflatable PFD using the oral inflator (see Deflating the
Inflatable PFD p. 5). Remove the CO2 cylinder/bayonet assembly
from the inflator.
7) Let the Inflatable PFD dry thoroughly. Re-arm & Repack the PFD (p. 6).
HOW DO YOU TEST YOUR PFD USING THE ORAL
INFLATOR?
1) No spare parts or re-arming kits are needed to test your Inflatable
PFD.
2) Remove the CO
2
cylinder/bayonet assembly to prevent inadvertent
inflation, which could potentially damage the Inflatable PFD. Inspect
the cylinder to confirm it is unused (Fig. 7).
3) Put on the Inflatable PFD.
4) Get into shallow water, just deep enough that you can stand with
your head above the surface.
5) If you are a weak swimmer or non-swimmer, orally inflate the
Inflatable PFD partially so that you are supported well enough to be
able to complete inflation without touching bottom. Note this level
of inflation because it is the minimum needed for you to safely use
this Inflatable PFD.
6) Fully inflate the Inflatable PFD using the oral tube.
7) See if the Inflatable PFD will float you on your back or just slightly
back of vertical. In a relaxed floating position, verify that your mouth
is well above the water’s surface. Note the effect of where you hold
your legs on how you float.
8) Get out of the water and remove the Inflatable PFD. Completely
deflate the Inflatable PFD using the oral tube.
9) Let the Inflatable PFD dry thoroughly. Re-arm and repack the PFD (p. 6).
