ASSEMBLY FOR BOATS WITH INFLATABLE DECK
1.
Find flat surface where boat will be assembled.
2.
Remove any sharp objects from the area where boat will be assembled and inflated.
3.
Unfold and spread boat out flat.
4.
Connect the pump to the valve by inserting the adapter attached to the pump hose into the valve, turning
it until it tightens. Do not force it, simply turn it until it locks into place.
5.
Inflate the three tubes (Bow, Starboard & Port) to about 50%. If the air rushes out when you detach the
adapter from the valve, you need to turn the pushpin in the center of the valve (see above).
6.
Unfold and stretch out the inflatable deck, edging it under the half-inflated tubes and against the transom
making sure the deck is under the board attached to the transom.
7.
If the keel valve does not line up with the opening located near the bow, remove the floor, inflate the keel
to get any folds that may have formed during shipping. Deflate the keel, it should regain its proper shape.
Re-inflate the three tubes to about 50% making sure the keel valve now aligns with open in the deck.
8.
Inflate the air deck to about 70%
9.
Install the aluminum seats into the seat straps.
10.
Inflate the three tubes to 100%. (3.6PSI or 0.25 BAR)
11.
Inflate the air deck to 100%. (10PSI or 0.70BAR)
12.
Inflate the keel to 100%. (5.8PSI or 0.40BAR))
13.
Install the oars.
14.
Install the plug.
What is 100% full & don't have a gauge? Inflate the tubes & floor until the hand pump becomes somewhat difficult
to push down.
