INSPECT INFLATOR ASSEMBLY OF PLUG AND EXTENSION HOSE (OR
POLY- LIFT LINE) BEFORE USE AND REPLACE PROTECTIVE INFLATOR
CAP AFTER USE. Ensure that there is no dirt or debris lodged in the inator
valve or other connections. Dirt or debris may prevent positive sealing of the
inator valve core. Carefully inspect ination extension hoses to ensure that
end ttings are properly crimped, that sealing washers are in place and that
the hose is not worn or damaged. Ensure that the ination valve core is in
position and properly tightened. Such defects, left uncorrected, may cause a
slow leak, resulting in under ination and plug dislodgement. To ensure secure
attachment to the plug, make sure the Poly Lift Line is not worn or abraded
and that the end ttings are properly attached. If any damage is found to any
component, repair or replace the equipment before use.

PLUG FAILURE OR PLUG DISLODGEMENT WHICH MAY RESULT IN
DEATH, SERIOUS BODILY INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE!
WARNING ALWAYS ATTACH AN EXTENSION HOSE (or Poly-Lift
Line) to enable plug ination and deation from outside the Danger Zone!
NEVER REMOVE THE INFLATION HOSE (or Poly-Lift Line) until all back
pressure is released and the plug is completely deated! FAILURE TO HEED
