the valve body fully until it is recessed and flush with the surface of
the tube.
Step 3:
Inflate the main chamber using a hand pump or powered inflator until
it is firm and then install valve cap, ensuring it is seated squarely and
fully. Be carfeul not to over inflate.
Note: A firm and fully inflated tube will perform better on the water
than an under-inflated tube and is less subject to damage. Use a
hand pump to top off, if needed, to obtain this firmness. However, do
not over-inflate. Inflate only until firm.
Note also that the air pressure in the tube will fluctuate depending on
air and water temperatures. Adjust the air pressure in the tube
accordingly throughout the day to maintain proper firmness during
use.
To deflate;
Unscrew entire valve body from base. This allows air to escape
quickly and easily. Deflate the safety chamber, if applicable.
Step 4:
Attach a properly rated tow rope (not included).
Important: Loop end of rope MUST pass
through hole of the quick-connect prior to
wrapping loop around hooks. Inspect
condition of molded tow point prior to each
use. Do not use if it shows signs of
damage, cracking or breaking.
