Inflating The Board - Mistral HG06954 Montage-, Bedienungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise

Remove all product packaging.
Verify that all parts are present and in good
condition.
When unrolling the board
no sharp objects such as shards of glass, loose
gravel or glowing charcoal or cigarette butts
are on the ground.
Note: Check the board for any damage such
as holes and tears the second time it is assem-
bled or sooner. Please refer to chapter "Repair
and maintenance" how to repair these. Damage
cannot be repaired once you are on the water.
Unroll the board and remove the plastic
1
foam fin protector from the two fins.

Note: Do not throw away the fin protector
These are required to protect the fixed fins when
rolling up the board

Inflating the board

Avoid overinflating to prevent the welded
seams from over-expanding or even rupturing.
Only inflate up to a pressure of 1 bar (15 PSI).
The air pressure will increase when the product
heats up from the sun. In this case, reduce the air
pressure by releasing air from the board
Inflate the board with the included air pump
1
. You can alternatively use a standard foot
13
pump or twin stroke piston pump with the cor-
responding attachments and a pressure gauge.
Only open the valves
release air. They can otherwise become
dirty.
The area around the valve
be dry and clean. Check the valve
particles.
Ensure sand or other dirt does not enter the
valve .

You may also use electric pumps designed spe-
cifically for SUP boards. These pumps are pre-
set to 15 PSI; the pump automatically shuts off
when this air pressure is reached.

Set the air pump

the front lever to the right (Fig. F1). Now inflate

Once you notice a lot of force is required, set
the air pump to single stroke by moving the
13
front lever to a vertical position. You can now
continue inflating with considerably less force.
Note: Do not pull the handle on the air pump
all the way up, only far enough so your arms
13
remain straight (Fig. F2). Now use the weight
of your body to inflate the product by simply
bending at the knees. Keep your arms straight.
This way you are not inflating with your arm
muscles but the weight of your body (Fig. F3).
Inflate the board

the recommended pressure of 1 bar (15 PSI).
Use the pressure gauge to check the pressure.
Stop inflating the product once the pressure
gauge reads 1 Bar (15 PSI).
Inflate in the following order:
1. First inflate the air chamber with valve number
1. The valves are marked 1 and 2.
2. Turn the valve head clockwise so it comes out
upward (Fig. C1).
3. Then open valve 2 and turn the valve head an-
ti-clockwise whilst pushing down (Fig. C4).
Your board is now ready to inflate.

4. Start with valve 1 by inserting the hose
the valve and securing it all the way clock-
1a
wise (Fig. C2).
Note: The valve head must be in the closed
position.
5. Then inflate the second air chamber via valve
2. To do so, turn the valve head clockwise so
it comes out upward (Fig. C1), insert the pump
hose the same as with valve 1 and start inflat-
ing. Since the inner air chamber is small, leave
the front lever on the air pump
inflate using little force.
6. Unscrew the hose end anti-clockwise from the
valve and attach the valve cap
