Basic Use:
Top Water Rescue:
The adult Water Rescue manikin is designed for water safety programs. The manikin takes on weight by filling with water through the small holes in the legs and arms. The manikin’s torso may be filled with water by opening the valve located on the shoulder. When the manikin is filled it will sink to around mouth level.
Bottom Water Rescue:
To fully submerge the Adult Water Rescue manikin, remove the vinyl cover and plastic insert located in the abdomen of the manikin. Add about 10 lbs. of weight (i.e. a brick) Replace the plastic insert and vinyl cover. The manikin will now fully submerge. Important: We strongly recommended that a flotation device and/or tether be affixed to the manikin in those situations where loss is possible.
