Care of the Projectile

The Projectile can be used over and over again if cared for properly.  Any visible damage to the 

Projectile is cause for immediate replacement.  

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REFILL A DAMAGED 

CYLINDER

.  This may cause an accident resulting in serious bodily injury or death (refer to page 

17, section “Protecting the Cylinder/Projectile”).

After use and before filling again to be stored, the Projectile Cylinder and the Nozzle Assembly 

should be separated and maintained. The Projectiles should not be filled until the steps below 

are taken.  Regardless of whether the equipment was used in fresh or salt water, there will be 

residue in the cylinder that may give rise to corrosion if not thoroughly rinsed.

Figure 25a - 

Cylinder and Nozzle Assembly

1.  Unscrew the Nozzle Assembly from the Projectile 

Cylinder by turning it in a counter-clockwise direction 

(Fig. 25a).

2.  Thoroughly flush both parts with fresh water, shake 

out excess water, and let air dry. 

3.  Inspect the Projectile Cylinder and the Nozzle for any 

damage or corrosion.

4.  Once dried, lubricate the threads on the Nozzle Assembly 

with Corrosion Block and screw the Nozzle Assembly 

back into the Projectile Cylinder in a clockwise direction 

until hand tight (Fig. 25a). DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. 

DO NOT use any sealant or tape on the threads of the 

Nozzle. Corrosion Block can be used on any part of the 

Projectile.  Each Projectile Cylinder is intended to have 

a maximum service life of five years from the date of 

manufacture  and  must  be  removed  from  service  at 

that time or sooner if there is any visible evidence of 

damage. Each Projectile Cylinder is date stamped. It is the 

responsibility of the purchaser to ensure that the Projectile 

Cylinder is not used after the service life has expired.

Figure 25b - Lubrication of Mechanism 

with Corrosion Block

Care of the Launcher

The Launcher has a stainless steel Mechanism. The Launcher should be rinsed after all maritime 

operations in order to keep corrosion to a minimum. Corrosion Block should be used as a 

lubricant on the Outer Ring of the Launcher Mechanism by reaching in through the vent holes 

on the Launcher (Fig. 25b).  If a Projectile Cylinder containing residual water is pressurized and 

launched, the Mechanism O-ring can become dislodged. If there is an audible air leakage when 

the Projectile is loaded into the Launcher and the Valve Key is used to open the Projectile Valve to 

pressurize the system, check if the Launcher Bleed Screw is properly tightened (refer to page 16). 

If the Launcher Bleed  Screw is closed and the leakage persists, the Mechanism O-ring should be 

checked and replaced if necessary; please contact the Manufacturer for instructions or service.
