Point Two Airbag System - Point Two ProAir2 Adult User Manual

8. Point Two Airbag System

1 The Airbags
The airbags are made of high-quality resistant polyurethane sheaths, which provide the best possible shock
absorption. It is possible for the airbags to be ripped or damaged in an accident if they hit any pointed or
sharp objects.
CAUTION
The sheaths must not be exposed to temperatures above 50°C.
2 The Release Pin
A force, applied to the connecting lanyard, is required to pull the release pin from the trigger body. This
releases a spring which forces a needle to perforate the CO 2 canister, releasing the gas into the airbags. A
pull from any direction will detach the release pin from the trigger body.
WARNING
For your own safety, do not dismantle the release pin or remove any parts.
3 The Gas Cartridge (CO 2 )
When replacing the gas cartridge, use only a genuine Point Two part of the correct size. The capacity of
CO 2 is stamped on the canister on the CO 2 line. Replacement gas (CO 2 ) cartridges can be obtained from
Point Two Ltd. Please call 01403 732129.

• Do not expose full cartridges to naked flames.
• Do not leave full cartridges in the car in high temperatures.
• If rust or other corrosive marks appear on the outer surface of the cartridge, change it immediately
and dispose of the corroded cartridge in a safe and environmentally-friendly manner.
• Ensure that a spent cartridge is completely empty before removing it from the trigger system.
• Only install genuine Point Two gas cartridges of the same size sold with the Point Two body protector.
• Please ensure spare CO 2 cartridges are kept out of children's reach at all times.
• Do not remove any part of the Point Two trigger system
• The CO 2 cartridge is not re-usable. Once used, it must be replaced with a fresh cartridge of the
same capacity.
• Check the weight of the cartridge yearly. It should not differ by more than 3g from the weight
engraved on the cartridge.
4 The Adjustable Saddle Attachment
Attaching the adjustable saddle attachment:
• Remove both stirrups leathers from the saddle.
• Standing at the pommel of the saddle, thread one end of the attachment through the 'D' ring and then
slide the loop over the stirrup bar.
• Repeat the process with the other end of the strap on the opposite side. It may be necessary to loosen
the straps to reach the other stirrup bar at this point.
• Now adjust the strap evenly on both sides so the attaching ring sits at the centre of the pommel.
• The strap should be short enough to not exceed passing behind the pommel but not so tight it lies flat
on the horse's wither.
