REARMING INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)

Step 4

Inspect the face of the new cylinder. Be sure it is smooth and has no holes or scratches. There is a gross weight on the cylinder. If you have any questions about cylinder integrity, weigh the cylinder on a small scale, such as a postage scale. Compare the weight printed on the cylinder to the actual weight. If they do not match, get another cylinder.

STEP 5

Screw new cylinder in a clockwise direction firmly into the inflator. Do not over-tighten, but ensure the fit is tight.

STEP 6

Check the inflator arming indicator every boating trip. The indicator and cylinder tightness tell you if there is a need for service. Check the cylinder face regularly to ensure it is not punctured. Be sure cylinder is screwed in tight.
