Using the Vetter safety cushion 4.
The safety cushion must only be used if there is no other way of
rescuing the person(s) concerned (such as a fire-escape ladder) or
if the use of the safety cushion becomes necessary for reasons of
time.
Injuries cannot be excluded with absolute certainty when the sa-
fety cushion is used.
Selecting the site 4.1
The place where the safety cushion is put up depends primarily
on the on the actual situation and the local conditions.
The surface on which the safety cushion is placed should be free
from foreign particles that may cut or prick the covering material.
The safety cushion must also be protected against excessive
heat.
The jumping height must not exceed 16 m!
The exact location where the safety cushion is to be put up will be
determined by the officer in charge of the operation.
The safety cushion must be put up in such a way that only vertical
jumps can be made. The person to be rescued must never be as-
ked to jump sideways.
The safety cushion must be re-aligned after each jump, if neces-
sary.
The safety cushion must only be lifted and re-positioned by its
carrier loops. It should not be dragged along on rough ground for
safety reasons and to ensure a long service life.
