get damaged. When boarding the boat or when
leaving it, do not ground the boat.
Instructions for utilization
Loading is allowed to be carried out only after the
boat has been launched and is in the water, howe-
ver prior to any people boarding the boat. Prior to
boarding it must be ensured that all tools for
G
moving the boat (paddles or oars) are located eit-
her in the boat or within reach of the boat so that
B
they can easily be seized before leaving.
Inexperienced users should ask an experienced
person for advice regarding the utilization of the
driving engine.
In the course of the day, it may happen that as a
consequence of the sun shine the air in the inside
of the chambers gets heated up which causes an
excessive interior pressure that may cause the
damaging of the air chambers. In order to prevent
this, the air pressure must constantly be monito-
red and, if required, be regulated by briefly pres-
sing the deflation button, as described above.
After the outside temperature has cooled off
again, air has to be added again to inflate the air
chambers again, as also described above.
In unknown waters it is strongly advisable to make
inquiries about the local conditions before laun-
ching the boat and making use of the waters.
Cleaning and storage
The boat must be cleansed after utilization by rin-
sing and spraying with clean water from soil on
the surface. This is particularly important when
salt water, diesel fuel or other mineral oil soiling is
involved. When necessary, use a mild detergent
for cleaning without scouring. Subsequently, allow
the boat to dry at the open air, before the air is
completely evacuated. Then fold it up and store
the boat at a frost-free location. When folding the
boat up, take care that there are no sharp folds in
the plastic sheet. Powdering with talcum is not
necessary.
The folded up boat is not allowed to be unfolded
below a temperature of +15 °C as otherwise the
plastic sheet may get damaged.
Repairs
Although the boat has been manufactured of a
reinforced and tough material, it is still possible to
cause holes or fissures and cracks when the boat
is handled improperly. For the repair of a small
damage, a Repair Set is included in the delivery.
For carrying out repair work, proceed as follows:
1. Clean the surface around the damaged spot by
means of clean water and a mild detergent.
Allow the spot to be repaired to dry well.
2. Cut a round or oval patch from the repair mate-
rial supplied. The patch should cover the dama-
ged spot by about 3 cm over its size.
3. Apply a thin layer of the adhesive agent both on
the patch and on the location to be repaired.
4. Place the patch with adhesive agent on the spot
to be repaired and press them firmly together.
5. Allow the adhesive agent to dry for 12 hours.
6. Apply further adhesive agent on the edges (let
it dry for 4 hours).
Keep the adhesive agent away from children!
