Inflating Instructions
Before starting, locate a clean area free of stones or other sharp objects. Unroll the boat so it is laid
out flat, and locate your pump.
Use a hand or foot operated air pump to inflate the boat. Do not use high-pressure air compressors.
Adults should inflate the chambers following the numerical sequence marked on the valves. It is very
important to follow the numerical sequence; failure to do so will result in an improperly inflated boat.
Fill each chamber until it is stiff to the touch but NOT hard. Use the enclosed ruler to check the main
chamber for proper inflation. DO NOT OVER INFLATE. Fill with cold air only.
IMPORTANT: Air temperature and weather condition do affect the internal air pressure of inflatable
products. In cold weather the product will lose some pressure due to the fact that the air will contract.
If this occurs, you may want to add a little air to the product. However, in hot weather, the air will
expand. You must let some air out to prevent the product from failing due to overpressure.
How to Use Boston Valve:
1. Double valve cap (valve lets air in, not out).
2. Quick deflation cap.
3. Unscrew Double valve cap.
4. Insert output end of air pump into valve and fill. Do not over inflate or use high pressure
compressor.
5. To deflate: unscrew quick-deflation cap. CAUTION: Double valve does not operate when this cap
is off. Do not unscrew this cap while boat or inflatable is in water.
