4) Check that the oral-inflation dust cap is properly in the
stowed position (Fig. 1d)
5) Repack the bladder into the pouch (see “Repacking your
inflatable PFD”). Make sure the pull tab is hanging freely
outside the pouch. If everything checks out according to the
preceding instructions, your inflatable PFD is ready for use.
Donning Instructions
It is important that the PFD is properly adjusted to fit the person
wearing it. An incorrect fit or improper fastening of attachments
could impede its effectiveness.
1) All belts and straps are already threaded correctly and only
need to be adjusted for fit. The MD3025 waist belt should fit
securely below your rib cage.
2) Put the inflatable Pouch PFD on just like a standard waist belt
pack, and fasten the front buckle. Adjust waist belt to a snug,
comfortable fit, and secure the belt’s loose end in the belt
loop. Do not wear inflatable PFDs under clothing, as the
inflation could be restricted, or you could be injured (Fig. 2,
Steps 1 and 2).
