Now install the
cross ribs E & F
to the
back seat.
Proceed with cross rib E like before.
The closed
cross rib F
is placed behind
the back seat.
This one doesn't have a counterclip on the
keel. It
is clipped directly onto it
(see
picture on the left).
Follow the same procedure with cross rib A & B for the front seat.
4) Inflating the sponsons
The inflating valves have two positions, that you
can adjust by pushing and turning the white pin
in the middle.
In one position you can inflate and disconnect
the pump without letting the air out again.
If you want to deflate, push in the pin and do a
half turn. The valve stays open.
Now inflate the high pressure sponsons.
IMPORTANT
:
There is an adapter for the filling valves in
the repair kit. Put it onto the double action
pump.
Then insert the adapter into the valve and
with a half turn screw it to it.
Best is
first to inflate the lower sponson
on one side to
around 50%,
then on the
other side equally. Then change again
and fully inflate them in turns.
Proceed likewise with the upper
sponsons.
The ideal pressure is 0.2-0.25 bar (2.9-
3.63psi)
Do not exceed it!
