PREPARATION FOR USE

STORAGE OF THE HOSES
After performing the REGULAR OPERATIONAL INSPECTION, verify that the RIT-PAK III
portable air supply is complete and packed properly for use as follows:
Verify that all hoses and optional equipment are present and properly stored in their stor-
age compartments as follows:
1. To store the HIGH pressure supply hose:
a) Open the cover over the pressure reducer end of the bag (T-handle Cover)
and fully extend the HIGH pressure hose.
b) Make a bend in the hose where it comes out of the storage compartment
and feed the bend backwards into the compartment.
c) Continue feeding the hose into the compartment until only the high pres-
sure RIC UAC connector is left showing with the back of the connector
just inside the compartment. See FIGURE 18.
2. To store the LOW pressure supply hose:
a) Open the cover over the accessory compartment (Ball-handle Cover) and
fully extend the hose.
b) Make a bend in the hose where it comes out of the storage compartment
and feed the bend backwards into the compartment.
c) Continue feeding the hose into the compartment until the dual manifold
reaches the inside of the Ball-handle Cover.
d) Secure the dual manifold to the inside of the Ball-handle Cover with the
hook-and-loop strap as shown in FIGURE 19.
