Kannad Marine DW-LJH5D/A1 - Manual (Page 2)

ATTACH THE R10 TO LIFEJACKET
Open the right side of the lifejacket and
attach the R10 low down on the oral tube of
the lifejacket as shown, then lead the yellow
lanyard to the webbing at the bottom of the
lifejacket and tie off as short as possible,
taking up all slack without distorting the
shape of the lifejacket.
It will be necessary to adjust the folds in the
bladder to accommodate this.
It is important that this line is as short as
possible, without causing any distortion of
the lifejacket when folded.
ATTACH THE SECURITY LANYARD
Using the remains of the yellow line (which has just been secured to the
bottom of the lifejacket) tie the very end onto the white section of the R10
with a bowline. Ensure that there is plenty of slack in the line. The purpose
of this line is purely as a back-up in case the R10 has been dislodged from
the oral tube.
TESTING
It is recommended to test every lifejacket. Prior to repacking, inflate the lifejacket to test that the red cap is
pulled off the R10 as the bladder inflates. Press the OFF button of the R10 within 15 seconds of activation to
avoid transmitting. If the red cap is not pulled off the R10 by the inflation of the lifejacket the yellow line is too
long so should be shorted, and another inflation test carried out.
Deflate the lifejacket and reassemble the R10 by folding the antenna tightly back under the body and sliding on
the red cap. Re-fitting the red cap will again cause the R10 to switch on, so press the OFF button within 15
seconds to avoid transmitting.
REPACKING
Ensure the orange tab – which is now the reserve manual activation toggle – is hanging loosely down and that
there is nothing to impede the yellow activation line from pulling the red cap off the R10 when the lifejacket
inflates. Re-pack the lifejacket following standard procedures.
