Care, storage, repairs and
maintenance
Care
WARNING!
Do not use harsh cleaning agents, brushes with
metal or nylon bristles, or any sharp or metallic
objects such as knives, or similar objects. Only
use mild cleaning agents.
Clean the board after every use and only when
the valve is closed.
1. Remove the US fin (6) from the board (1).
2. Place the board on a clean, flat and dry
surface.
3. Clean the board and fins with fresh water and
mild soap in order to remove any salt crystals,
grains of sand and any other minor contami-
nation.
4. Wipe everything down with a soft, dry cloth.
5. Let the board and fins dry completely after-
wards.

GB/IE
• If the product will not be in use for an ex-
tended period of time, completely open the
zip fastener on the backpack to ensure the
product is well ventilated.
• Store the product in a secure place, out of
reach of children.
• Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the
product.
• After an extended storage period, check the
product for wear and tear, or signs of ageing.
Repairs
WARNING!
Before every use, check the board for pressure
loss, holes or tears.
If the board is leaking air, this could be due to a
leaking valve, a defective valve, or a leak in the
board itself.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to
repair larger damaged areas yourself.
Minor damage can be repaired using the repair
kit (13) supplied.
Valve
To check whether the valve is leaking or defec-
tive, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the valve cap (1a) anticlockwise and
remove it from the valve (1b).
2. Ensure that there is no sand, or other foreign
objects, in the valve.
3. Fully inflate the board (1).
4. Close the valve.
5. Rinse the area of the board around the valve
with soapy water.
If bubbles form around the valve,
the valve must either be tightened or
replaced.
• Tightening the valve (Fig. J)
1. Turn the valve cap (1a) anticlockwise and
remove it from the valve (1b).
2. Place the valve key (10) on the valve until it
fully grips the valve.
3. Tighten the valve by turning the valve key
clockwise.
4. Close the valve with the valve cap and rinse
the area of the board around the valve with
soapy water. If there are no more bubbles, the
valve is tight.
• Replacing the valve (Fig. J)
If bubbles are still forming around the valve,
even after you've tightened it, it will need to be
replaced.
1. Release all of the air from the board.
2. Turn the valve cap (1a) anticlockwise and
remove it from the valve (1b).
3. Place the valve key (10) on the valve until it
fully grips the valve.
4. Turn the valve key anticlockwise until the valve
can be removed from the board.
5. Remove the defective valve from the board.
6. Insert a new valve into the board.
Note: you may order a replacement valve from
the customer service address below. For a better
seal, we recommend that you smear a little sili-
cone grease or petroleum jelly around the valve.
7. Place the valve key onto the valve and tighten
the valve by turning it clockwise.
8. Place the valve cover on the valve and tighten
it by turning it clockwise.
Leaks
Only repair leaks in the board with a suitable
adhesive. An adhesive is included in the pack-
age contents. Repairs with unsuitable adhesive
can lead to further damage!
You can find suitable adhesives in spe-
cialist stores.
Note: small leaks (smaller than 2mm) can also
be repaired with just the adhesive, by applying
it directly to the leaky area. Larger leaks (larger
than 2mm) can be repaired as follows:
1. Completely release the air from the board.
2. Thoroughly clean the area to be repaired.
3. Dry the cleaned area.
4. Cut a patch that is large enough to cover the
damaged area and extends 1.5cm around it
on all sides.
5. Apply the adhesive to the leak and to the
patch itself. Let the adhesive dry for approx.
2–4 minutes.
6. Firmly press the patch onto the leak with a soft
object. Be sure to work on an even surface
without any creases or folds. Using a rounded
object, gently remove any air bubbles, moving
outwards from the centre.
7. Let the adhesive dry for at least 12 hours after
the repair.
8. After the drying process is complete, add
more adhesive to the edges of the patch.
9. Let the adhesive dry for approx. 4 hours.
Important: before taking the board
into the water after repairing it, test the
repaired area to check that it is sealed.
Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair very large damaged
areas yourself. Take the board to a
specialist repair shop.
Maintenance
Check regularly that the pump is well lubricated
before and during operation.
In order to lubricate, open the upper lid and
apply a thin coat of oil or grease to the seals
and the cable.
