Every passenger must always wear a
Coast Guard approved personal floata-
tion device (PFD) when using this boat:
Before going boating, read the PFD manufacturer’s
information pamphlet regarding the PFD and tho-
roughly familiarize yourself with how the PFD is to
be worn.
Weather and water conditions: Check the
weather and water conditions before you go boa-
ting. Never go boating in severe winds, rain, thun-
derstorms, rough water, strong currents, floodwaters,
or where the tides will seriously affect your ability to
steer the boat or return to shore.
Never use or consume alcohol, drugs
or any other substance that may affect
your coordination, judgment or ability
to safely operate any boat including this
boat.
Sound device: The Coast Guard requires boaters
to have a means of signaling other boaters of their
presence. You should always keep a sound device
such as a whistle in the boat with you at all times. If
possible, attach the sound device to your Personal
Flotation Device.
Never stand up in the boat: Standing in the
boat may cause it to capsize. If the boat should cap-
size, please note that in most cases it is far more
dangerous to attempt to swim to shore than to stay
with the boat.
Never exceed your ability: Assess your phy-
sical capability as to how far and how long you can
pedal and swim.
Slippery when wet: The surface of your boat is
slippery when wet. Always wear slip resistant shoes.

heat due to immersion in cold water) can be deadly.
Survival time can be as short as 15 minutes in 35˚F
(2˚C) water. Dress appropriately for weather condi-
tions, wearing a wet or dry suit if necessary.
Never use this boat alone: You are advised
to always have someone with you in case of emer-
gency or accident. Also, always tell someone your
boating plans, including where you are going, how
long you will be gone and how many people you’ll
be with.
Never allow minors to use this boat wi-
thout adult supervision: Never allow any
minor to use this boat unless accompanied by an
adult.
Always familiarize yourself with the
body of water where you will be boa-
ting: Learn what hours boating are permitted,
whether there are any known hazardous conditions,
and where you can get help quickly in case of emer-
gency or accident.
Always abide by Coast Guard regula-
tions and State and local laws, regula-
tions, ordinances, and rules concerning
boating and boating safety: Check with the
Coast Guard and local authorities concerning pro-
per boat handling and the proper equipment to be
carried on board, such as lights and soundprodu-
cing devices.

This section of the owner’s manual des-
cribes the steps involved in disassembly of
the entire unit crankshaft assembly and its
components. Please note that disassem-
bly is not required for the replacement of
pedal pads or paddle blades. To remove the
crankshaft assembley, use a ¾” socket or a
¾” wrench, to remove the nut from one side
of the crankshaft rod.
To replace the Delrin bushing assemblies
simply unscrew the back nuts located in the
paddle wheel cavity and insert new parts.
These parts are the most likely to wear and
should be inspected periodically. These
bushings should be replaced if worn, in or-
der to prevent damage to the pedal boat
hull. Inspect and replace every season as
required
Now remove the crankshaft and drive adap-
ter, which slide out together. From the other
side pull out the other crankshaft and drive
adapter along with the crankshaft rod.
To reinstall the drive adapter, reverse the
steps above, inserting the crankshaft and
crankshaft rod through the paddle hub
(make sure that paddle blades are facing

Figure D5 shows the correct
orientation for installation of the
paddle blades.
Align the two halves of the pedal
pads together around the crankshaft
and press together.
Insert the two screws and tighten
with a Phillips screwdriver.
Small amounts of water may collect
in the hull due to condensation and
other factors. Depending on the mo-
del of WB Series or Equinox Series
the drain plugs are located at the
front (Fig.D7) or rear (Fig.D8) of the
hull. If necessary, drain water from
the pedal boat by standing the pedal
boat up against a wall to let the wa-
ter drain from the hull.
Clean the hull with mild soap and water, when necessary. Do not use industrial
solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Flush dirt and debris from the drive mecha-
nism frequently. Check and remove entangled weeds from the paddle wheel hub
and the paddle blades frequently.

This section of the owner’s manual des-
cribes the steps involved in disassembly of
the entire unit crankshaft assembly and its
components. Please note that disassem-
bly is not required for the replacement of
pedal pads or paddle blades. To remove the
crankshaft assembley, use a ¾” socket or a
¾” wrench, to remove the nut from one side
of the crankshaft rod.
To replace the Delrin bushing assemblies
simply unscrew the back nuts located in the
paddle wheel cavity and insert new parts.
These parts are the most likely to wear and
should be inspected periodically. These
bushings should be replaced if worn, in or-
der to prevent damage to the pedal boat
hull. Inspect and replace every season as
required
Now remove the crankshaft and drive adap-
ter, which slide out together. From the other
side pull out the other crankshaft and drive
adapter along with the crankshaft rod.
To reinstall the drive adapter, reverse the
steps above, inserting the crankshaft and
crankshaft rod through the paddle hub
(make sure that paddle blades are facing
their original direction). Refer to gure D5
for correct paddle blade installation. Reins-
tall the second crankshaft. Note that the dri-
ve adapter has a single large male key that
is designed to fit into the paddle hub in one
unique location. You must locate this single
large key correctly when installing the drive
adapter in the paddle hub.
