WING
MANUAL | USER GUIDE
7. CARE & MAINTENANCE
8. WARRANTY
•
Always pump the wing with the intended inflation pressure, which is shown
on the side of the valve. Use a manual pump with a pressure gauge.
•
If the bladder does not fill uniformly with air, or if there is a visible twist in
the strut or leading edge, interrupt the pumping process. In this case,
check that the bladder is properly seated before re-inflating the wing.
•
Keep sand and water away from the pump and the valves of the wing.
•
On land, lay the wing upside down with the strut facing up.
•
Avoid exposing the wing to the wind and sun for an unnecessarily long time
after or before use. The fluttering of the canopy in the wind and excessive
UV exposure can reduce the life of the wing.
•
Avoid bringing the wing into contact with sharp-edged rocks, thorns, wood
and other objects that may damage, puncture or tear the cloth.
•
Be sure not to drag the tips of the wing across the ground.
•
Never leave the wing unattended on the beach and secure it with the leash
to a heavy and/or immovable object.
•
Be sure that the wing has dried completely before packing it up. Otherwise
changes of color or mildew could occur. Such bleeding is not covered
under the VAYU warranty.
•
Do not dry the wing in direct sun.
•
Pack up the wing into the bag without cuttings to avoid tearing the canopy.
•
A coating that results from using the wing in salt water will not damage the
wing. However, rinsing in fresh water and drying is recommended.
•
When cleaning the wing be sure that no water, dirt, or sand gets inside the
bladders.
•
Inspect the cloth, struts and leading edge at regular intervals and repair
any small holes or tears before the next use, to avoid major damage.
