AC 43.13-1B CHG 1 9/27/01 replacement, use a lanyard not less than 20 feet long and having a breaking strength of about 75 pounds. b. It is recommended that the aforemen- tioned procedure be repeated every 18 months using the CO2 bottle(s) for inflation. If a sin- gle bottle is used for inflating both compart- ments, it should be noted whether the inflation is proceeding equally to both compartments. Occasionally, the formation of “carbon-dioxide snow” may occur in one passage of the distri- bution manifold and divert a larger volume of gas to one compartment, which may burst if the mattress valve is not open to relieve the pressure. If the pressure is satisfactory, return the raft to service in accordance with the pro- cedure outlined. c. Inspect the CO2 cylinder for evidence of cross-threading or stripping. d. Inspect the CO2 bottle inflation valve cable rigging as follows. (1) Remove the screws that attach the cover plate to the valve and remove the cover plate. (2) Inspect the firing line cable ball swage for engagement in the correct recess for either “Upward Pull” or “Downward Pull.” The cable will be wrapped around the sheave approximately 270 degrees. (3) Reposition the cable ball swage as required. (See figure 9-12.) (4) Replace the cover plate. The green dot on the sheave should be visible through the window in the cover plate, indicating a charged cylinder. e. Check the CO2 cylinder release cable and housing for condition and security. f. Make sure the safety deflector is re- moved from the cylinder outlet before con- necting the cylinder to the raft. (See figure 9-12.) g. Stencil the life raft’s inspection date on the raft. 9-39.
