4 INFLATING AND SETTING UP
NOTE!
Tighten the valves before inflating!
All three valves must be tightened before the first
inflation. If the valve is loose, air will leak from the
outer edges of the valve and the kayak will deflate.
Tighten the valve with the wrench tool included in
the repair kit. Note that the kayak must be empty
when tightening. Insert the wrench into the slots
around the valve, press all the way down and
tighten firmly clockwise.
Valve and pump operation
1. The valves must be closed when inflating: the
button in the middle is in up position. By pressing
the button you can open/close the valve. Button
down = valve open, button up = valve closed.

2. The FitNord pump is a Double Action Pump.
Initially, you can keep the plug closed allowing the
pump to push air into the board during both the
pulling and pushing phases. When the pressure
rises and the pumping becomes heavier, open
the plug which makes the pumping easier (single
action mode).
