We also advise users undertake their own inspection quarterly as detailed in the instructions provided with product. These instructions are also available to download from the Spinlock website along with video’s, for example to support the re-packing process.
Spinlock encourage all owners to open, inspect and re-pack their jacket’s prior to needing to at sea and be fully accustom to donning and adjusting the product to achieve maximum comfort and function.
This is in line with good practice for all personal safety equipment; you should know it personally. If any doubt regarding the integrity and potential functionality of the jacket exists the product should be checked by a recognised service centre.

Failure to re-pack deckvest as per Spinlock instruction may increase the possibility of undesired automatic inflation.
