The seat cushion valve is positioned between the legs so it can be opened at sea for
adjustment if you need it.
A small amount of adjustment is possible. The top of backrest should
be partially under the rear deck.

FOOTREST
The footrest / pedals assembly
is inflated by mouth to a
moderate pressure, not critical.
With the rudder in a neutral
(straight-ahead) position, the
rudder lines can be adjusted at
the
forward
tie-point so that
the pedals lean slightly towards
the paddler.
This has been pre-
set at the factory but may need further adjustment after a settling period
or first use..
The footrest is adjustable on the webbing straps for leg length. The rudder
lines will automatically adjust without further attention.
The pedal elastic cords should be adjusted so tension is sufficient
only
to
hold the pedals up. To avoid drag in the rudder lines do not over-tension.

DECKS
The decks are an important and integral part of the
boat structure, stiffening the hull significantly
when closed.
Fit the curved fibreglass battens in the 4 pockets
provided in the deck undersides.
Important: pull
the decks in to relieve the zips of any load when
closing them.
An occasional spray with silicone
will keep the zips closing easily.
Important:
When opening the decks it is
necessary to
half withdraw
the battens.
