01 FIND THE REPAIR OPENING
You can find the repair opening at one end of each
strut.
02 OPEN VELCRO CLOSURE AT ONE END OF THE STRUT
Open the Velcro to get access to the inner TPU bladder.
03 REMOVE ONEPUMP CONNECTORES AND VALVES
Remove the rubber tubes and plastic rings from the
One-Pump Connectors, unscrew the valve and press
them out.
04 ATTACH A STRING TO A ONE PUMP CONNECTOR
Then attach a string (or you can use your guy lines for
that) to the One-Pump Connector farthest from the
repair opening.
05 PULL OUT THE BLADDDER CAREFULLY
Pull the bladder out of the jacket carefully – the string
will automatically be inserted into the jacket.
You can use the string to reinsert the bladder again
after repair.
06 REPAIR/EXCHANGE THE BLADDER
Now you can patch the hole with the self-adhesive
patches in the repair kit. Cut a patch with rounded
corners out of the repair stickers approximately 2 cm
larger than the damaged area on all sides. If needed,
replace the damaged bladder with a new one.
07 INSERT THE BLADDER CAREFULLY
Take great care when inserting the bladder again that
the bladder doesn’t twist. Twisting the bladder can
lead to damage when pumping it up. After inserting the
bladder, turn the end and closing piece into the end of
the strut.
08 CLOSE THE VELCRO
Be sure to securely fasten the Velcro inside the strut
opening.
09 INFLATE THE BLADDER SLOWLY
After inserting the bladder, please make sure it fills
out the complete space inside the strut. Then fill the
bladder with air slowly and carefully to check the
positioning. If the bladder is not positioned correctly
(e.g. bladder is twisted or bladder does not fill out the
complete space inside the strut), you’ll need to
reinsert it correctly.
The IDG is made of especially robust material.
However, if outer jacket or inner bladder does get
damaged, you can replace or patch them just as
you would a flat tire on a bike.
If the bladder is broken, it can easily be removed
through the repair opening at the end of each
strut.
REPAIR
IF THE JACKET IS DAMAGED
If the jacket of a strut is damaged, it should be replaced right away; otherwise,
you might damage the inner bladder. In this case, unfasten the Velcro closure on
the corners and at the bottom so you can remove and replace the entire strut.
