NOTICE: Please reference the J3 Cushion Owner's Manual for set-up and
adjustment of the cushion. The following instructions pertain to the
installation and adjustment of the DRY FLOATATION
INSTALLATION OF THE INFLATION TUBE(S)
Some configurations of the J3 Cushion with the DRY
FLOATATION ® insert come with the inflation tube(s) un-installed. If
this is the case, you will have received the following parts:
• DRY FLOATATION ® insert with a tube coupler at the end of
the inserts truncated inflation tube
• A length of tube with one
end terminated by an
inflation valve, the other
end open. A second tube
will be included if the
DRY FLOATATION ®
insert was a dual cham-
ber insert. You can iden-
tify if the insert is single
or dual chamber by the
truncated inflation tubes
at the rear of the insert. A coupling connector has already
been installed in the truncated inflation tubes.
To install the inflation tube(s)
1. Install the DRY FLOATATION
as outlined in the instructions below.
2. Measure the length of
inflation tube required
for your specific cushion
size. Do this by measur-
ing the distance (l) from
the front edge of the
truncated inflation tube
on the insert, to 1/2"
(13mm) from the front
edge of the cushion. You
can use a flexible tape
measure or string to take this measurement. (Fig. 1)
3. On the length of inflation
tube, measure the dis-
tance (l) from the front
of the valve to a location
on the inflation tube that
matches the measure-
ment taken in step 2.
(Fig. 2)
4. Cut the length of infla-
tion tube as measured
using scissors.
5. Attach the cut length of inflation tube to the coupling connec-
tor. Then follow the installation instructions Steps 2-6 following.

INSTALLATION OF DRY FLOATATION
INSERT INTO FOAM CUSHION
1. With the cover
removed from the J3
foam base, install the
DRY FLOATATION
insert into the Opti-
Well. Ensure that the
DRY FLOATATION
insert is aligned with
the well and that the
inflation tubes are to
the rear of the cushion.
Ensure that the Velcro attached to the DRY FLOATATION
insert is aligned with the matching Velcro adhered to the
foam base. If a PLA insert is being used, see the J3 Owner's
Manual for instructions on its installation. (Fig. 3)
2. With the DRY
FLOATATION
installed, the inflation
tube(s) need to be
secured to the foam
base. Your DRY
FLOATATION
may have one or two
inflation tubes depend-
ing if it is a single cham-
1
ber insert or a dual
chamber insert. Two channels on the foam base are used to
locate the inflation tube(s). (Fig. 4)
3. Begin by securing the
inflation tube(s) in the
channel in the rear of
the foam cushion, then
threading it through
the hole which joins
the back channel to the
side channel. Once
through, secure the
2
remainder of the infla-
tion tube to the side
channel. (Fig. 5)

5. Re-install the cover by sliding the cover over the foam
assembly. It is best to secure the inflation valve in place with
your hand as you slide the cover over the assembly with your
other hand.
6. Insert the valve through
the side slot located in
the cover behind the
Jay logo. The valve is
intended to protrude
through the slot and be
secured by the side
band on the J3 Cushion
cover. (Fig. 6)
