HOW TO PROPERLY OPERATE AIR VALVE

ATTENTION :

Do not use a compressed air source (i.e., automotive tire air

Over inflation through the use of compressed air may result in ruptured seams.

The valve has a special pushpin inside. Do not use any type of tool to adjust the position. Use your

fingers! This pushpin has two positions, both up and down. When it is pressed in the down

position, air will escape. If you turn the pushpin in any direction it will pop up. This will lock air

inside and prevent it from escaping through the valve. Before inserting the air pump tube into the

valve, please make sure that the pushpin is in the upper, popped up position. Once the pin is in

the "popped up" position, insert the air pump tube into the valve and inflate the boat until it

becomes hard. Once you remove the air pump, air will seal the valve and will no longer escape. If

you would like to deflate the boat later on, press down on the pushpin and turn it in any direction

until it stays in the pressed down position. Air will immediately escape from the tubes thru the

INFLATION

1. Inflate the boat with the pump supplied. NOTE: When using a hand pump, the boat will not be over-

inflated. If using an electric inflator inflate the boat to about 80% and then finish the inflation procedure

with the pump supplied to obtain the correct inflation pressure.

2. The maximum inflation pressure is 0.25 bar for the boat, 0.40 bar for the keel and 0.70 bar for the

inflatable deck. Depending on climate and operating conditions, the pressure may require monitoring

during boat use to maintain a correct inflation level. What is 100% full & don't have a gauge? Inflate the

tubes & floor until the hand pump becomes somewhat difficult to push down.

3. Due to the boat having a safe valve to prevent over-pressure installed, a boat inflated for 4 to 5 days may

lose pressure and require re-inflation to correct operating pressure, this is normal. It doesn't mean that

your boat has a leak, it means the safety over-pressure valve is protecting your boat!

4. WARNING: DO NOT using a compressed air source (i.e. compressor) to inflate the

boat. Over-inflation with a compressor may result in ruptured seams and/or

bulkheads.

5. When inflating, maintain a balance of air between air chambers to prevent damage to air chamber

bulkheads.
