6. Treatment and Storage
The rubber surface coating of the boat is sensitive to oils,
gasoline, toluene, acetone, kerosene and similar thinning
agents. Prior to storing a dirty boat, wash it down with warm
soapy water. Rinse the boat with fresh water after using the
boat in seawater. It is recommended to check the state of
the inflation valves and the safety relief valves. If a valve is
not air-tight, it is possible to unscrew the valve body from the
boat with the use of a special valve-key and clean its mem-
brane with a strong jet of water or compressed air. Prior to
storage, it is recommended to rub the surface of the boat
with an agent intended for the treatment of such surfaces,
which has cleaning properties, and which impregnates the
material to prevent further dirtying, or which is capable of
forming a protective UV-filter. Never use agents contai-
ning silicon when treating your boat. Store the cleaned and
dried boat in a dark, dry place at a temperature of (15 – 35)
°C, at least 1.5 m from any radiant heat source and out of
the reach of rodents. During long-term storage, it is reco-
mmended to inflate the boat for 24 hours from time to time
to avoid fatiguing the fold lines. It is also recommended to
have the boat serviced by the manufacturer‘s authorized
service station at least once every two or three years.
Proper care and treatment of the boat will increase its
service life.
7. Guarantee Conditions
The guarantee period is 24 months and is calculated from
the date of sale. The producer provides cost-free repairs or
replacement of faulty components for material faults or pro-
duction faults. The warrant does not cover any damage of
the air chambers resulting from higher than the prescribed
working pressure !!!
8. Boat Repairs
You can easily repair a damaged boat yourselves by means
of the accompanying gluing set.
Gluing:
• mark out the damaged area on the boat and choose an
appropriately sized patch;
• the surfaces of both patch and place to be glued must be
clean, dry and without traces of old glue;
• sandpaper the patch and the damaged area and degre
-
ase the area to be glued by using acetone or gasoline;
• spread a thin layer of glue on both surfaces to be glued
and repeat this step once the first layer has dried;
• after the second layer has dried, press the patch firmly on
the damaged place, weigh down or use a rolling pin on
a flat surface.
For minor repairs (punctures), it is possible to re-inflate the
boat and continue using it after waiting for approx. 30 minu-
tes; after more serious repairs, you should wait for 24 hours
before using the repaired boat. Complicated repairs should
be performed by the manufacturer or at authorized service
stations.
