Inflating.

1. Remove the inflatable from the valise provided. It isn’t necessary to unroll the inflatable 
for inflation. 

2. The inflation valve has two positions.  When the valve is closed, the diaphragm pin will 
be in the raised position.  To open the valve, press and twist the diaphragm pin clockwise.  
When closing the valve, twist the diaphragm pin anticlockwise until it releases into the 
raised position.  

3. Please ensure the inflation valves are in the closed position before inflating.

4. Insert the inflation hose into the inlet valve on the main section and twist 
clockwise to lock it into place. You can then begin to inflate. When using a BA cylinder to 
do so, this will take less than 60 seconds. Take care not fill to maximum capacity.  When 
the first section is inflated, remove the hose by twisting anticlockwise.

5. The inflation process can then be repeated on each part of the inflatable.  To save time, 
you can use multiple hoses to inflate two sections simultaneously (additional hoses are 
available to purchase). Please take care not to fill to maximum capacity.

6. When inflation is complete fit the valve caps by inserting them and twisting clockwise.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Deployment & Use.

The following points are operational recommendations. Almost every operational
scenario will have different hazards and risks, which can only be properly assessed at, and 
during, an operational rescue/recovery.

WARNINGS: 
Ensure equipment is used only by trained personnel. Do not drag the inflatable. Avoid 
contact with sharp or abrasive objects as they may puncture the fabric causing a loss of 
buoyancy. Walking an inflatable is only suitable for calm/slow moving water. Any 
non-approved modification will invalidate the warranty and may result in personal injury.
