NOTE: Air pressure can be measured using the air gauge provided with the air pump or using an accessory air pressure gauge.
1.Inflate the three side air chambers first. Inflate air chambers as follows:
NOTE: Install the removable seat before the boat is fully inflated. Hook the flanges that are located on the bottom of the seat into the nylon straps on the side air chambers.
a. Fit the floorboards into the boat. Refer to Floorboard
Assembly.
b. Unscrew the valve caps by turning a quarter of a turn counterclockwise.
c. Make sure the valve stems are in the closed position. Push in on the valve stem and rotate to the closed position.
d. Attach the air hose adapter to the air valve.
e. Starting at one of the air valves, inflate each air chamber in turn, inflating only a quarter of the way full. Repeat this procedure to evenly fill the air chambers until the air chambers are filled to the recommended air pressure of 0.25 bar (3.6 psi).
