Fliteboard, PRO, ULTRA
Post ride
Open the board lid slowly, take care not to let it fall on the nose of the
board. (If the lid is opened too far it may fall and damage the nose of
the board).
After each ride, check to see if any water has leaked into the
Flitecell cavity.
If so, check the cause of the leak which may include: sand present on
the sealing surface; a damaged or dislocated seal; damaged hinges
or latches; or something obstructing the lid when closed.
Once the Flitecell has been removed ensure that the complete board,
including Flitecell compartment, seals, lid and eFoil are washed
thoroughly in fresh water.
Let the board air dry and then wipe down with a clean, dry absorbent
cloth. Ensure that Contact Cleaner is sprayed onto all connections.
Regular maintenance
Apply lubricant / WD40 to the latches and hinges every few weeks.
Keep the lubricant away from the deck grip to avoid a slippery board.
Check the board regularly for damage or cracks. If damage is present
have it repaired by a professional surfboard or sailboard repairer who
is experienced with epoxy repairs.
Inspect the orange, mast flange seal regularly for any damage and
ensure its is kept clean and free of any sand, grit or dirt.
During daily use ensure that the eFoil is removed from the board and
wings from the eFoil at least every three days. Ensure Contact Cleaner
is applied to all cables and Tef-Gel is reapplied to all screws.
Storage
Ensure that all sand, grit, dirt, and salt residue has been washed o
with fresh water, and suciently dried. Ensure that the Flitecell has been
wiped down with a clean, dry absorbent cloth while switched o.
Ensure the board and deck grip are dry before storage.
Apply Contact Cleaner to all connectors to reduce the risk of
corrosion.
Take extra care not to scratch the carbon board bottom and wings.
Place your Fliteboard in the provided bag, then store in a clean
and dry environment.
Keep the board and bag out of the sun.
