Cleaning Procedure
FABRIC SURFACES
Inflate the air chambers. Clean the fabric with a mild soap and fresh
water solution. Rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly.
Open the drain valve. Use a hose to wash out any debris from the
interior. Wash the interior including the Air Deck® with soap and
water. Clean any debris from the drain valve. Rinse with fresh
water and dry thoroughly.
NOTE: Gasoline spillage must be cleaned immediately to prevent
damage to fabric and/or Air Deck®.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a vinyl preservative on the air chamber
fabric. Chemicals in the preservatives may dry out the fabric.
Deflating
IMPORTANT: When deflating the side air chambers, do not deflate
one side air chamber at a time. When deflating, maintain a
balanced air pressure between air chambers to prevent stress or
potential damage to the inside diaphragms that separate the air
chambers.
