OPERATION
24
f. 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).
NOTE: Always be aware of the air pressure in the air chambers.
The air volume inside the air chambers will expand as the internal
air temperature rises; this will cause the air pressure to fluctuate
depending on water temperature and weather conditions. A boat
that is correctly inflated, may experience a drop in air pressure
and require additional air when temperatures decrease; or it may
become over inflated when in direct sunlight or as the
temperatures increase. This will require the air chambers to be
deflated until the recommended air pressure is reached.
2. Fit the sides of the Air Deck® floor under the air chambers.
Align the forward hole over the keel air valve.
3. Unscrew the valve cap from the Air Deck® air chamber valve
by turning a quarter of a turn counterclockwise. Push in on the
valve stem and rotate to the closed position. Attach the air
hose adapter to the air valve. Inflate the Air Deck® floor to the
recommended air pressure of 0.69 bar (10 psi).
4. After inflating the Air Deck® floor, unscrew the valve cap from
the keel air chamber valve by turning a quarter of a turn
counterclockwise. Push in on the valve stem and rotate to the
closed position. Attach the air hose adapter to the air valve.
Inflate the keel to the recommended air pressure of
0.25 bar (3.6 psi).
5. After inflation, install the valve caps tight (turn clockwise).
Overpressure Security Valve ‑ Hypalon Models
NOTE: This feature is Included on Hypalon fabric models.
If the air pressure exceeds the maximum limit, the red cap will
loosen or pop off the overpressure valve. Air will escape until the
air pressure returns to the recommended limit. Replace the red cap
on the overpressure valve.
