Prepare CRRC for Storage and Transport
It is necessary to deflate the CRRC completely when preparing it to be
rolled up for storage or transportation in the supplied carrying bag. If
deflating the CRRC for long term storage, make sure to clean the CRRC
using soapy water. Rinse well with clean water and let dry prior to
deflation.
1. Remove hard deck and main thrustboard.
Set hard deck panels, joiners, gussets, thrustboard and hardware aside. If
roll-up floor, remove inflation cylinder and set aside. The roll-up floor,
bow skirt, main and forward thrustboards can all stay in the boat.
2. Open inflation valves.
Unscrew inflation valve covers and turn valve stems until they are locked
in the open position.
3. Open inflation valves.
Put pressure on the MBT to force air out the valves. Continue putting
pressure on each chamber of the MBT until all air has been evacuated. A
Shop-Vac can be used to speed up the process.
4. Unlock valve stems and replace valve covers.
5. Pull MBT up and into the center of the boat.
