Inflation and Setup in 3 Simple Stages
1. Starting with Main Chamber 1, check to be sure that the valve plunger is UP or in the
INFLATE position
(See Figure 1 on previous page)

Inflating Main Chamber 1:
For the best setup experience, we recommend
STAGE 1
using the AE2011 Double Action Hand Pump with Gauge which provides 4,000 cc’s
per full cycle stroke.
As shown in the diagram above, our unique tube design divides the main inflation
chamber into two separate air chambers that encircle the entire kayak. This provides
optimum safety when out on the water. Following the inflation steps below will
ensure that you have properly divided the air into the two main chambers, not only
for proper performance, but for safety as well.
2. Using the AE2011 Double Action hand pump
, inflate the kayak approximately
55
full (up then
down) strokes until the kayak begins to take shape. If using another pump, the key here is to
just partially inflate the kayak. The kayak will still be soft/under-inflated
.
