INFLATABLE PFD
FIGURE 3
SIZING AND FIT
This PFD provides a minimum of 150 Newtons (33.7 pounds) of
buoyancy when inflated and is designed for wearers over 16 years of
age, with a chest range of 76-132 cm (30-52 inches) and weighing
over 36 kg (80 pounds).
PUTTING ON (DONNING) YOUR PFD
It is important that the inflatable 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. For the non-harness models MD3153 and
MD3151, the belt should fit below your rib cage adjusted to a
tight personal fit. For the harness model MD3154, the bottom of
the belt must always be worn at least 5 cm (2 inches) above the
lowest rib and adjusted to a tight personal fit.
2. Put the PFD on just like a jacket (Fig. 3) and fasten the front
buckle. Adjust the waist belt using the side buckle on the belt and
secure the belt’s loose end in the belt loop.
WARNING: DO NOT WEAR INFLATABLE PFDS UNDER CLOTHING AS THE INFLATION
COULD BE RESTRICTED OR YOU COULD BE INJURED.
