Mustang Survival MD3091 Life Jacket User Manual


 
INTRODUCTION
This manual provides instructions and guidelines for safely using and
maintaining Mustang Survival MD3196 and MD3091 Compact Tactical Life
Preservers (LPs).
Mustang Survival LPs have been designed specifically for easy integration
with body armor and tactical vests, including armor and vests using a
Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment (MOLLE) webbing system.
The compact design of the LPs provides individuals wearing body armor
with flotation capability with minimal bulk and minimal interference.
In-water performance tests with the LPs attached to a typical body armor
vest successfully demonstrate the ability of the LPs to self-right and provide
effective flotation and buoyancy.
Due to variances in local configuration, full gear in-water testing is
recommended to validate performance.
The MD3196 and MD3091 LPs can be worn as stand-alone life preservers
when used in conjunction with the MA3090 harness assembly.
The MD3196 LP inflates automatically upon submersion using a hydrostatic
inflator that significantly reduces the potential for accidental inflation due
to humidity, sea spray, or wet storage. The hydrostatic inflator must be
submerged to automatically activate.
The MD3196 LP may be inflated manually, prior to submersion, by pulling
the beaded manual inflation handle.
The MD3091 LP is inflated manually by pulling the beaded manual inflation
handle.
When worn, used, and serviced according to the instructions in this manual,
Mustang Survival MD3196 and MD3091 LPs can greatly increase a user's
chance of survival in the water.
