Precautions

  1. Check the airbag:
    Make sure that the airbag is free of cracks or holes. If these defects are found, replace the new lifebuoy.

  2. Check the automatic inflator
    Check the Automatic inflator section down below to see the operation instruction.

  3. Check the gas cylinder

When the automatic inflator is triggered, the gas cylinder inflates the airbag. Before use, check that the installed gas cylinder is of the correct size and free of breakage. When checking the cylinder, unscrew the gas cylinder and observe the screw surface. If damage to the screw plane is found, the gas cylinder needs to be replaced. If the gas cylinder is in good condition, install it correctly on the automatic inflator.

  1. When installing the gas cylinder, if the trigger is not installed correctly, the automatic inflator will not be able to inflate the lifebuoy properly.
  2. Gas cylinders can only be used once, replace cylinders and tablets in a timely manner after use.
  3. The protective coating on the exterior of the gas cylinder may corrode under wet conditions or after a period of use, and if so, replace the gas cylinder in a timely manner.

Automatic inflator

How to install and use:
Unscrew the spring base, place the tablets into the valve body, tighten the spring base, and screw the gas cylinder clockwise into the valve body. Make sure the installation process is free of water or any wet conditions.
Automatic inflating:
After the lifebuoy is fully submerged, the automatic inflator quickly starts to inflate within 5 seconds.
Manual inflating:
Grasp and pull the handle to start manual inflating, if for any reason there is not enough air in the airbag, you can blow air into the airbag through the valve on the airbag.

Note: Automatic inflator must be triggered before you can blow the air through the valve.

Deflate the Life Buoy

Press the tip of the cap into the valve to deflate the airbag. While pressing the valve, gently press the airbag with your hand to remove the gas from the airbag. The cap should be restored to its original state after being used.

Maintenance

Lifespan
The lifespan of the automatic inflatable lifebuoy depends on how it is used and maintained. Store the lifebuoy in a cool, dry environment. Long-term exposure of lifebuoys to high temperatures or humidity shortens their lifespan.
Maintenance and cleaning
Clean – It is recommended to clean with mild detergent and rinse it with fresh water after each use.
Airdry – If the lifebuoy is wet, hang it on a coated hanger and airdry it thoroughly. Do not place it directly under the sun and do not use any heat source while drying.

  • No machine wash
  • No dry clean
  • No bleaching

Inspect

  1. Leak test – This test should be performed every two months. Inflate the lifebuoy using the air valve and place it for 12 hours. If any changes in shape observed, it needs to be repaired.
  2. Air valve testing – remove the cap. After the lifebuoy is inflated, press the tip of the cap into the valve, the valve should be easy to press down and return to its original state after release.

Store

  1. Store the lifebuoy in a cool and dry environment.
  2. Do not place the triggering tablets in environments with excessive humidity and temperature for too long.
  3. Triggering tablets are fragile. Any extrusion should be prevented during transportation.
  4. Triggering tablets must not be stored for more than 3 years and must be replaced every 12 months during operation.
