- Manual: trigger handle. The wearer activates a trigger handle located at the chest. This handle directly actovates the hammer to inflate the bladder.
- Oral: mouthpiece. The wearer opend the cover using the quick-open zip fastening and uses the mouthpiece to inflate the bladder with ther breath. This is for emergency or top-up inflation.
