ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY
Attention ! Do not use a compressed air source (such as a compressor) to inflate boats.
Overinflation through the use of compressed air may result in ruptured seams and/or bulkheads.
ASSEMBLY
1. Remove any sharp object from flat surface where the boat will be assembled and inflated.
2. Unfold and spread out the boat flat.
3. Attach the valves in their proper place. Check that the cap gasket is in place. Attach valve retainer to each valve.
4. When using the boat for the first time, fully inflate it by attaching the foot pump to each of the valves, one at a time,
and when pumping, ensure that a balance of pressure between the chambers is maintained until the boat has been fully
inflated. When the boat has been fully inflated, unscrew the valves and allow approximately ½ of the air to escape. Screw
the valves on again, and continue assembling the boat.
NOTE : Do not inflate the keel until the floor boards have been installed.
5. If the boat has been previously inflated, attach foot pump to each valve, one at a time, and add air to each chamber to
½ of their capacity.
