Do not exceed the stated maximum capacities under any circumstances. Over-
loading will reduce freeboard and increase the likelihood of swamping, especially
in heavy seas. Overloading causes handling to become sluggish, making it difficult
to react quickly.
Do not force the handle on the pump, it could break.
Use both hands to operate the pump; position one hand on each side of the pump
handle. Pump by moving the handle in a vertical upwards and downwards motion.
Do not push unevenly on the handle; this could break the shaft of the pump.

ASSEMBLY, INFLATION AND DEFLATION
ASSEMBLY
Your kayak requires very little assembly. All you have to do is ensure that the kayak floor
and back rest are correctly positioned in the kayak cockpit prior to inflation of the kayak
floor.
OPERATING THE PUMP
The pump included with your kayak has been chosens pecifically for its ability to quickly
inflate your Airis™ kayak to the high pressure required.
The pump included with your kayak is equipped with a pressure gauge. The pressure
gauge will only display pressure while you are inflating. The pressure reading will subside
when you stop pumping.
The pump can be used for inflating and deflating. For inflation mode attach the fitting on
the pump hose to the fitting on the pump handle marked “Inflate”. For deflation mode
attach the fitting on the pump hose to the fitting on the pump handle marked “Deflate”.
OPERATION OF VALVES
For inflation remove the valve cap (b), then push, twist and release
the center valve stem (a) so it is in the “OUT” position.
After inflating install the valve cap (b) by inserting it and twisting
clockwise.
For deflation remove the valve cap, then push, twist and release the
center valve stem so it is in the “IN” position.
After deflating replace the valve cap to protect the valve’s parts and
mechanism.
NOTICE
If you prefer to use an aftermarket foot pump or an electric pump choose one capable of
inflating to at least 6.5PSI/0.45Bar.
MATERIALS
AirWeb™
Airis™ Inflatable Kayaks are made using
AirWeb™ High Pressure Construction,
formed from a heavy duty, 7 layer poly
-
mer coated fabric that is joined inside by
thousands of drop-stitch fibers. AirWeb™
makes it possible to inflate Airis™ Kayaks
to more than 6 PSI or 0.42 bar, up to 6
times the maximum air pressure of other
inflatable kayaks! This creates a hull that
is incredibly rigid and durable without the
use of aluminum inserts or other compli-
cated frame parts, and keeps the assem-
bly of Airis™ Kayaks quick and simple.
