PRESSURE GAUGE
INFLATION
1/ Place all valves in inflation position.
2/ Fit the adaptor that matches the diameter of the "easy-
push" valve to the inflation tube tip.
3/ Attach the hose connector to the inflation pump inflation
valve.
To inflate your buoyancy tube properly, the inflation pump
should be correctly placed on the ground.
The tube inflates rapidly if the inflation pump is used smoothly
and without haste.
4/ Inflate the buoyancy tube, starting with the first compartment (a) at the bow, to 200 mb pressure.
5/ Then inflate the amidships tubes (b), to 220 mb read on the pressure gauge on the first
compartment.
6/ Then inflate the stern compartments (c) to 240 mb, with the pressure gauge still on the first
compartment. The partitions (1) enable the pressure between each tube to balance out.
7/ Inflation is completed: screw on the inflation valve plugs.
