B. Folding SMLR-A (6-25 Person, Round Container)
1. Place the liferaft neatly on a packing table in an open area, with enough room
to maneuver the container during packing. The cylinder should be positioned
adjacent to the edge of the packing table. Make sure any remaining air has
been completely evacuated from the raft.
2. Lift the liferaft and place the cylinder end into the round container. Make sure
the painterline hole on the container is oriented in the same position as the
firing head.

3. Place the folded sea anchor on the deflated raft at a position near the
cylinder. For rafts up to 10 person, fold one side of the liferaft over, keeping
the seam of the fold aligned with the firing head. For rafts over 10 person,
after making the first fold, fold the edge of the raft back towards the seam.
