5. Manual trigger for oxygen powered manually controlled resuscitation. Easily accessible while still holding the resuscitation mask with a two handed grip.

6. Calibration labeling shows settings for the slider controlling automatic time cycled resuscitation.

7. Clear patient valve body enables easy view to check inside for contamination. 360 swivel connector helps prevent accidental disconnects and makes positioning the resuscitator to the patient easier. 15/22 mm connector allows attachment of standard resuscitation facemasks, ET tubes etc.

8. Oxygen supply hose 2m length. Reinforced to resist kinking yet supple to allow easy positioning.
