INFLATION
1º/ Place all valves in inflation position.
2º/ Fit the adaptor that matches the diameter of the "easy-push"
valve to the inflation tube tip.
3º/ Attach the hose connector to the inflation pump inflation valve.
To properly inflate your tube, the inflator needs to be properly placed
on the ground.
The tube will inflate quickly if the inflator is operated smoothly and
unhurriedly.
4./ Inflate the tube starting with the first compartment (a) from the bow (front), until a pressure of 200 mb is
reached.
5./ Then inflate the compartments (b) in the middle, until a pressure of 220 mb is reached, as read on the
pressure gauge left on the first compartment.
6./ Then inflate the aft compartments (c) to a pressure of 240 mb, still leaving the pressure gauge in the same
location. The partitions (1) allow balancing the pressure in each compartment.
7º/ Inflation is completed: screw on the inflation valve plugs.
c: 240 mb
c: 240 mb
NOTE: A slight loss of air is normal before the cap is screwed on.
Only the plugs provide final airtightness.
