PROPER INFLATION
During nal ination, inate until most of the wrinkles in the fabric are gone and
it feels rm to the touch, but DO NOT exceed 2.5 psi (0.17 bar) in the main air
chambers.
CAUTION - DO NOT OVER INFLATE YOUR PONTOON BOAT
Water temperature and weather affect the air pressure in the boat. In cold
weather your pontoon boat will lose some pressure because the air will contract.
If this occurs, you may want to add more air.
In hot weather, the air will expand. You must let out some air to prevent the
pontoons from failing from over pressure. Avoid exposing your pontoon boat to
extreme temperatures (hot or cold).
CAUTION
On warm sunny days, keep the pontoon boat either in water or in shade (if kept
inated on land). This will decrease the risk of overexpansion of the pontoon
chambers posed by rising temperatures, which can result in seam tears,
delamination and pinholes.
Avoid asphalt, sand, pebbles or concrete in direct sunlight as they radiate high
ground heat.
Also understand that changes in altitude will cause the air in the bladders
to expand or contract. If traveling to higher elevation with the pontoon boat
inated, frequently check the pressure in the pontoons to avoid over pressure.
If traveling to lower elevation you may have to add more air to maintain proper
pressure in the pontoons.
WARNING - ALWAYS CHECK THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE PONTOONS BEFORE
AND DURING EACH USE.
