4. Operating instructions
4.1 Ination
Open the packing bag and remove the Rescue Path. Lay out the Rescue Path in the intended direction which is to be free of any obstacles.
Press the connection nipple of the ination hose for the Rescue Path (Item no.: 1530 0034 01) into the coupling on the ination connection.
Check to see if the O-ring is available in the connection before connecting the compressed air bottle.
Securely connect the hand connection of the ination hose onto the valve on the bottle. Open the valve on the bottle. The Rescue Path rolls out.
The integrated safety valve, 0.5 bar, avoids ination in excess of 0.5 bar. Immediately close the valve on the bottle if, during ination, you hear the safety valve blowing out.
Before use, it is necessary to disconnect the ination device from the Rescue Path. To do this, pull back the ring sleeve of the cou­pling and withdraw the hose out of the coupling. A check valve in the Path connection stops any loss of air.
Danger of tearing! Wear protection gloves!
