REPLACEMENT MANUAL
1. Secure the lifebuoy during the replacement phase. This is a good opportunity to test the lifebuoy function by activating the Release
Switch or pulling the manual safety pin.
2.
Disassemble the ERU – use an 8mm fixed spanner. Discard the used ERU in an environmentally approved manner. Make sure that the
new ERU is correctly marked before installation. Mount the new ERU – do not tighten too hard!
3.
Loosen the locking nut on the release arm and remove the old release cord. Mount the new release cord. The ends of the release
cord can be locked during installation by pulling the cord ends into the V-slot. Make sure that projecting section of cord is 20cm in
length and that the cord is finally well locked by the washer before you tighten the locking nut again.
4. Put a lifebuoy 2/3 rds into the GRP holder and then secure it for the installation phase. Use the supplied thin white pilot line to pull the
release cord through the ERU unit.
Make sure that the lifebuoy line is not on the outward side of the release cord! This might entagle the lifebuoy in an activation situation.
5. Pull up the release cord through the ERU hole with the pilot line. Secure it with the manual safety pin.
6.
Connect the ERU cable at the connector box.
7.
The safety cover on the Release Switch shall be secured with some kind of easy-to- break seal, in order to avoid unintentional use of
the system.
8. The system is now ready for use. The ERU shall be changed after two years of service.
