WARNING
assembly/disassembly
‘Permissible number of person’ means only one person per board, except in the case
of ‘BALI’ (PBOARD4) - 2 adults and 1 child within the weight capacity. It is dangerous and
forbidden to use the product by more than the permissible number of person at one time.
‘Maximum working pressure’ means the maximum allowed working pressure after inflation is
15psi to make sure usage is safe.
Please DO NOT perform any structural changes to the ISUP that could aect safety. The
minimum safety and perfomance requirements specified in this manual does not release the
user of an Inflatable Stand-Up Paddle Board from their obligation to acquire any knowlege
and skills required for navigating in water and to observe the respective regulations, since
safety on the water is also a result of the interaction between coxswain, boat and water
conditions.
SET UP
Unfold the board from the packaging, choose a smooth and clean surface to unfold your
board.
FIN INSTALLATION
Before inflation, insert the two side fins first. Once the board is inflated, slide the larger
centre fin to the base and insert the fixed pin, included with this item.
VALVE OPERATION
Follow the instructions below for valve operation and correct inflation/deflation procedures.
The boards inflation valve is located near the nose of the board. To close o the valve
for inflation, make sure tht the centre valve pin is in the ‘UP’ position. If it is in the ‘DOWN’
position, press down on the valve pin and turn anti-clockwise until it pops back up.
To open the valve for deflation, press down on the valve
pin and turn it clockwise so that it locks down. Be wary of
any sand or debris around the valve area when deflating as
small particles could become airborne with the release of
the air pressure.
Always lock the valve cover over the valve stem when in
use. This will prevent accidental air release and entrance of
any particules into the air chambers.

ASSEMBLY/DISSASEMBLY CONT.
ISUP BOARD INFLATION GUIDE
1. Unscrew the valve cap, push button in and turn it
clockwise to make sure that the valve is in the ‘pin
out’ position.
2. Make sure that the pump hose in connected to
the ‘inflate’ outlet.
3. Connect the pump nozzle into the valve
receptacle.
4. Start pumping air into the board by sliding the
pump piston up and down, inflate until you reach
the required pressure.
BOARD DEFLATION
1. Clear any water or debris out of the valve areas
2. Slowly press down on the valve stem to start letting air out of the board. There will be
an initial burst of air, but that will slow down very quickly. Once the air flow has slowed
down, press the valve stem all the way down and turn it clockwise to lock it into the “OPEN”
position.
INFLATION TIPS / PRECAUTIONS
1. The board can be inflated either with a standard extra high pressure hand pump or
electric pump. The proper pressure is min 12psi and maximum 15psi.
2. DO NOT use an air compressor. Damage to your board caused by over inflation from an
air compressor is not covered by our warranty and can damage the board.
3. After 2 or 3 days, there may be a small decrease of pressure due to temperature change.
If so, add a few pumps of air.
4. Before undertaking a long paddle, inflate the board for a full 24 hours to make sure
the board is airtight. If you are seeing a consistent decrease in air pressure, follow the
instructions for leak detection in the board repair section of this manual.
5. DO NOT over-inflate the board. A max pressure of 15psi is adequate. The easiest gauge
of a good working pressure is to have the chambers inflated to a firm pressure when you
press on them.
6. DO NOT pump to a high pressure and let the board sit out in the hot sun. If the board is
going to be in a warm environment, slightly deflate the board and allow the heat from the
sun to increase the internal pressure. When paddling, the colder temperature of the water
may cause a slight loss in chamber pressure. It is a good idea to carry a pump with you so
that you can add some air to the chambers if necessary.
MINIMUM 12psi FOR PROPER ISUP OPERATION AND MAXIMUM OF 15psi FOR THIS
PRODUCT.
5. After inflation, tighten the valve cap. Only the valve cap can ensure final air tightness.
TIP: If the pump piston starts to squeak, apply some spray silicone on the piston shaft.
MAXIMUM AIR PRESSURE FOR THIS PRODUCT IS 15psi.
WARNING! DO NOT INFLATE BEYOND 15psi.
THIS CAN DAMAGE THE PRODUCT AND CAUSE INJURY

CARE INSTRUCTIONS AND STORAGE
INFLATABLE VALVE SEALING WASHER BLOW-OUT
Aqua Go boards are made from material that provides superior protection from ultraviolet
light. However, to ensure extra years of flexibility and bright colors, avoid storing the board
where it will be exposed to weather or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Please
review the following list for storage and board care tips.
1. Before storing, hose o the board and let it dry completely to prevent mildew buildup.
2. Do not use harsh chemicals for cleaning. Most dirt can be removed with a mild soap and
fresh water.
3. You may store the board inflated or deflated. If you deflate the board, we recommend that
you store it in the protective bag that came with the board.
4. If storing the board outdoors, raise it up o the ground and cover it with a tarp to prevent
exposure to the sun.
5. Hanging the board is not recommended.
6. Do not store in extreme conditions (i.e. above 66°C/150°F or below -23°C/-10°F).
7. Store in a clean and dry place.
If you deflate your board too quickly, the expelling air can
partially blow the inner grey sealing ring out into the valve
chamber. This can go unnoticed until the next time you try
to inflate your ISUP. If you look into the valve chamber you
will see the edge of the sealing washer protruding into the
valve chamber, see Figure 1.
The solution is relatively easy. To re-seat the sealing
washer and have the valve functioning correctly once more
you will need the valve sealing tool provided.
1. Ensure the board is fully deflated.
2. Rest the tail (the part behind the fins) of the board on
something solid and raised so that the fins are not subject
to any pressure.
3. Remove the dust cap from the valve housing.
4. Place the valve sealing tool into the crown slot around
the valve inner chamber, see Figure 2.
5. Turn the valve anti-clockwise to loosen the outer valve
head. Only use the tool to turn the outer valve head a
couple of turns (see Figure 3.) and then remove the tool
and continue to undo the valve head with your hands. See
Figure 4 overleaf.

6. Once fully un-screwed you can remove the outer valve
head from the inner valve seat to expose the partially un-
seated sealing washer, see Figure.5.
7. Using your thumb to depress the inner valve sealing
mechanism, you will be able to expose the partially un-
seated sealing washer, see Figure.6.
8. Using only your fingers, ease the sealing washer back
into position so that it is seated within the slot of the
supporting plate, see Figure.7.
9. Once you have the sealing washer back in its correct
position you can then screw the outer valve assembly
back into the inner valve seat by reversing the removal
procedure.
10. Before you re-assemble, smear a very small amount
of silicone grease or Vaseline petroleum jelly to help re-
seal the valve housing and you may also put some of this
lubricant around the black rubber “O” ring on the outer
valve body to ensure a good seal. See Figure.8 & 9.
11. Make sure there are no particles of grit or any other
foreign bodies on any part of the valve assembly as this
could damage the working parts of the valve and make
air leakages very likely.
Re-assembly of the outer valve assembly back into the
inner valve seat by reversing the removal procedure.
Make sure you do not cross-thread the valve assembly
and only use your hands to re-fit the outer valve to the
inner valve seat.
Once fully inserted and screwed in, then and only then,
use the valve sealing tool for a final tighter turn. Be sure
not to over tighten the assembly as this will damage the
valve and its ability to hold air pressure.
