Chart 1 – Working Pressure by Chamber - Blackfoot Angler 130
Valve [Inflate Order] Working Presssure in psi (Bar)
TUBES [1] 3.0psi (0,21bar)
FLOOR [2] 6.0psi (0,41bar)
1. Locate a flat, dry area near the water. The best setup position will also make launching easy. Never
drag product as damage may occur.
2. Unfold product completely and locate Side Tube Valves [1]. To help future storage, closely note original
folding & packaging method. Remove each valve cap and confirm valve is in inflate (1-way airflow)
position. See HR valve operation, C.
3. Insert air pump hose with proper valve fitting into either Side Tube Valve [1]. Use pump to inflate side
tube to Working Pressure as shown in Chart 1. Check for proper pressure using gauge (manometer).
Repeat this step to inflate and check the other Side Tube Valve [1]. Replace valve caps.
4. Repeat step 3 instructions to inflate Floor [2] to proper Working Pressure shown in Chart 1. Blackfoot
incorporates a high-pressure dropstitch floor for ultimate performance. While it is possible to operate
vessel confidently with floor at as little as 4.0psi, inflate to full working pressure for peak performance.
5. Blackfoot incorporates a high-quality, adjustable, welded aluminum frame seat. Seat includes its own
instruction sheet to reference if needed. Prepare seat for installation: choose “low” or “high” configuration,
position seat back in upright position, and prepare attachment straps.
6. Position seat in cockpit according to desired use. For solo paddler, seat should be positioned just aft
of center handles. With seat above cockpit, loosely lead seat attachment straps outward through floor
webbing loop, up through ladderlock buckle, then down and back through floor webbing loop. Press seat
down to cockpit floor and tension attachment straps from beneath the seat. Backrest should position
users in comfortable, but upright position. Move seat position fore/ aft to alter legroom or boat trim.
7. Blackfoot Angler 130 has 4 circular floor drains positioned on sides of cockpit and 1 circular floor drain
in the rear. In most cases it is best to confirm drains are closed before setting out. For normal drainage,
set boat on incline with stern lowest. Remove drain cap in rear of cockpit and
allow water to drain astern. Lift bow to assist drainage if necessary.
This product can be used in self-bailing mode. In this case, all cockpit drains
should remain open. Some water will enter boat in self-bailing mode but will
not accumulate.
8. Install Splashguard Insert. Blackfoot includes 1x plastic Splashguard insert
to prevent water from entering the cockpit. Open Velcro flap on inside of
Splashguard. Slide corners of insert into corner pockets and close Velcro flap
on top of insert. This maximizes Splashguard protection. Reverse steps for
disassembly. Do not fold product with inserts installed. See F.
9. Install fin. This product uses a US-style fin and box with thumb-screw and
tab. No tools are required for installation.
a. Roll boat over to expose the bottom. Fin box is positioned near
stern (rear). First, remove the thumb screw and flat tab (rectangular
nut) from fin.
b. Reconnect tab and thumb screw loosely – just a turn and a half.
c. Use thumb screw to insert flat tab into opening in finbox and slide tab as far forward as
possible. Unscrew thumb screw leaving flat tab in place at front of finbox. See G, step 1.
d. Fin has a horizontal pin toward the rear. Starting with this pin, insert fin into opening in finbox
and slide backward until front of fin can be pressed into box. See Step 2.
e. Align hole in fin with hole in flat tab and insert thumb screw. Tighten to secure. See Step 3.
