SECTION ⅠPURPOSE
The operation and maintenance instruction is used to guide users how to operate and maintain
LNK-LB-02B lifebuoy light properly.
SECTION ⅡDESCRIPTION
2.1 Introduction
LNK-LB-02B lifebuoy light is replaceable alkaline batteries designed man overboard emergency
light. It should be installed by the side of lifebuoy and attached to the lifebuoy. When the lifebuoy
is throwing into water, the attached light will go with it. Once the light is into water, it will float on
the water and the LED lamp end automatic upwards. Then the light will be activated automatic-
ally and keep outputting the flashing white light more than 2.0cd light intensity during at least 24
