Installation and Deployment Guidelines

To ensure the lifebuoy is effective during an emergency, follow these guidelines:

Mounting: Should be mounted in an easily accessible location on the vessel or dock, ideally near the side rails or edge where a person is most likely to fall overboard.
Deployment: In a man-overboard situation, throw the buoy directly toward the person in the water. The attached strings should be utilized to help pull the individual toward the vessel or to secure the buoy to the rescuer.
Visibility: Ensure the reflectors are clean and unobstructed to maintain effectiveness during night-time or low-visibility operations.

Maintenance and Care

To extend the service life of your lifebuoy, adhere to the following maintenance routine:

Routine Inspection: Periodically check the polyethylene shell for cracks, deep scratches, or signs of significant UV degradation.
Cleaning: Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to prevent salt crystallization and buildup.
String Integrity: Inspect the attached retrieval strings for fraying or weakening due to sun exposure or mechanical wear. Replace immediately if damaged.
Storage: When not in use, store in a cool, dry place away from direct, prolonged sunlight if possible, although the material is designed for outdoor durability.

Frequently Asked Questions
