VALVES OPERATION

 

 
 

a) 

INFLATION-DEFLATION VALVE

 operation: 

 
 

b) 

OVERPRESSURE VALVE

 operation: 

 

 

Overpressure  valve  protects  the 
boat  against  unexpected  pressure 
increase over the maximum working 
limit.  In  case  of  any  tube  pressure 
increase  or  overinflating  the  gasket 
of  the  valve  will  open  automatically, 
release  all  excessive  air  and  bring 
the tube pressure to nominal.  Make 
sure  that  the  valve  cup  is  always 
clean.  Check  the  valve  operation 
during boat maintenance. 

 
 

c) 

DRAIN VALVE

 operation: 

 

 

 

WARNING

 

 

OVERINFLATING AND OVERHEATING OF YOUR BOAT MAY CAUSE THE 
BOAT DAMAGE. AVOID OVERPUMPING THE BOAT, LEAVING THE BOAT 
NOT COVERED, USING HIGH-PRESSURE INFLATORS. USE MANOMETER TO 
CHECK THE PRESSURE IN THE TUBE REGULARLY. 

 

 

Inflation-deflation  valve  has  PUSH-
PUSH  operating  system:  pressing 
the  central  pin  the  valve  switches 
between  OPEN  and  CLOSED.  To 
inflate  the  tube  put  the  pin  to 
CLOSED  position  (pin  moves  UP). 
To  deflate  the  tube  put  the  pin  to 
OPEN position (pin moves DOWN). 
After  inflation  every  valve  must  be 
closed  with  the  valve  plug  tight  to 
ensure airtightness of the tube.

BOAT ASSEMBLING 

 

 
Step 1:  

Open the boat 
 
 
 

 

Step 2: 

Assemble and  
install steering 
console 
 

 
 

 

Step 3: 

Install outboard 
motor 
 

Step 4: 

Install double 
seat 

 
Step 5: 

Inflate the boat 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 
-   Inspect the condition of the package for and report 
to your dealer if you find any damages. 
-  Remove  all  the  packaging  plastic  and  cardboard 
carefully. Do not use knife. 
- Check the completeness of the boat and make sure 
that  no  any  parts  are  missing.  You  must  report  the 
missing part to your dealer immediately. 
 
Unpack the steering console. Connect and secure the 
steering  cable  to  the  steering  system.  Install  steering 
wheel. If your boat is expected to feature electric start 
–  install  the  battery  tray  on  the  deck  under  steering 
console. Assemble and mount control box on the right 
side  of  the  console.  Make  sure  the  handle  in  upper 
position does not touch the railing. Install the steering 
console  on  the  deck  with  bolts  with  washers  and 
tighten them. 
 
Install  the  outboard  motor  following  the  motor  user’s 
manual. 
 
 
 
Unpack the double seats and install them on the deck 
with bolts with washers and tighten them. 
 
 
 
-  Open the pump, connect the pump hose to the pump 
onto inflation opening. 
-    Connect  bayonet  adapter  of  the  pump  hose  to  the 
valve 

Inflate the rear compartments first

 up to pressure 

slightly  below  nominal, 

and  the  bow  compartment 

the  last

  up  to  the  nominal  pressure.  In  this  case  the 

flexible  baffles  in  the  tube  will move  towards  the  rear 
compartments  and  equalize  the  pressure  in  all 
compartments.  
You may use the manometer to measure the pressure 
level  to  ensure  the  best  performance  of  the  boat  and 
make  sure  that  the  pressure  is  about  nominal  level. 
Nominal tube pressure is mentioned on Capacity Plate 
 

 
 
 

     IMPORTANT!!!  WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THE BOAT 
      ASSEMBLING  AND THE OUTBOARD MOTOR  RIGGING 
       TO BE MANAGED BY CERTIFIED BOAT DEALER ONLY! 

Drain  system  includes:  a)  two  drain 
through-hull  fittings  at  the  bottom  of 
the  rear  compartment  wall  with  two 
expanding  plugs,  b)  one  way  drain 
valves  on  the  boat  transom,  c) 
connecting  tube.  The  cockpit  of  the 
boats    is  self  bailing.  To  drain  thew 
water  in  the  cockpit  take  out  the 
expanding  plugs  and  water  will  drain 
out 

automatically. 

For 

effective 

draining inspect drain system regularly 
and make sure it is always clean, free 
of debris and has no any damages.
