18. MAINTENANCE
a) Cleaning:
•
Clean your boat often, and obligatory before winterizing.
•
For cleaning use SOAP AND FRESH WATER ONLY!
•
At all times keep the inflatable tube, vinyl and other boat parts free
of any chemical ingredients like:
o
Gasoline, grease, oil and any other oily product;
o
Suntan oils, lotions and any other body care products;
o
Pollution ingredients, dirt and dust;
o
Silicon based products, automotive chemical products.
•
Clean and rinse the boat or its part as soon as possible once you
find these ingredients on your boat to prevent the damage.
•
Keep your boat properly covered all the time you do not use it.
•
Keep your boat away of or well protected against car or other
exhaust smoke or pollution, which may damage the boat.
1. NEVER USE ANY OTHER THAN SPECIFIED
CHEMICALS, CLEANING LIQUIDS OR AGENTS, TO
AVOID DAMAGE OF YOUR BOAT.
2. NEVER USE HIGH PRESSURE CLEANING
EQUIPMENT TO AVOID DAMAGE OF THE BOAT.
b) Air tightness of inflatable tube:
•
As the inflatable tube is a main safety feature - check airtightness of your boat
regularly. Inspect the condition of all inflatable compartments with soap foam, and
make sure that:
o
there is no material cracks, holes and leaks;
o
all inflation valves and seams are intact.
•
ISO 6185 standard permits a certain amount of pressure loss - 30%: 45 mbar (0.63
psi) per 24 hours for the buoyancy tube, what is stated as acceptable. This
requirement is applicable only for main flotation volumes
– inflatable tube, and not to
inflatable seats, keels, floors and other inflatable parts.
•
Once you discover the pressure decrease
– just add some air by foot pump. Never
use high-pressure inflators to inflate the boat.
•
Temperature has a great influence on air pressure. A variation of 1
C results in a
variation in the same way of about +/- 4 mb (0,06 psi).
•
If you discover sufficient pressure drop, but do not see actual leakage:
o
Step 1: check the inflation/deflation valves and overpressure valves (if there
is one);
o
Step 2: check the major seams;
o
Step 3: check the tube material from the top to the bottom. Contact your
Dealer for advice if necessary.
•
Every discovered source of leakage must me properly repaired. Do not operate
leaking boat.

c) Maintenance of stainless steel:
•
We use only top quality stainless steels, which are resistant to corrosion.
However, it is not permanent and maintenance is required:
o
Avoid contamination and scoring its surface.
