may cause damage to your kayak. Do not over inate. Be sure to read directions on operating
the valves in the section “Understanding Your Valves”.
1. Begin by unfolding the kayak and laying it out at. Insert foot brace tracks into webbing
mounting pockets located on kayak main chambers before ination. Orient each of the foot pegs
so that the adjustment tab on the foot plate is facing towards the bow of the kayak. First insert
the foot peg track into the webbing loop nearest to the seating area and the insert the other end of
the track into the webbing pocket at the bow of the kayak. (See gures, Steps 1-4 on next page)

adaptor located in your repair kit, inate Main Chamber 1 until rm to the touch (2.25 psi MAX).
3. Inate Main Chamber 2 until rm to the touch (2.25 psi MAX).
