OPERATION The ADT-8G-12L manual pull station provides a textured fin- ger-hold area that includes Braille text. In addition to PUSH IN and PULL DOWN text, there are arrows indicating how to oper- ate the station, provided for non-English-speaking persons. Pushing in and then pulling down on the handle activates the normally~open alarm switch. Once latched in the down posi- tion, the word "ACTIVATED" appears at the top in bright yellow, with a portion of the handle protruding at the bottom as a visible flag. Resetting the station is simple: insert the key, twist one quarter-turn, then open the station's front cover, causing the spring-loaded operation handle to return to its original position. The alarm switch can then be reset to its normal (non-alarm) position manually (by hand) or by closing the station's front cover, which automatically resets the switch.
