weighs'41'lbs).''
•Loosen'the'straps'and'unfold'the'AirTop.''
•Unfold'and'set'up'the'product'on'a'flat,'level,'nonVabrasive'surface.''
•The'AirTop'has'6'valves:'one'in'each'of'the'four'spokes,'one'in'the'center'of'the'piece'and'one'
in'the'perimeter.'Locate'and'insert'the'pump'into'each.'Normal'inflation'time'is'approximately'
30'seconds'to'3'minutes.'
•Close'each'valve.''
•Do'not'overVinflate,'especially'in'hot'weather.'This'will'cause'the'air'to'expand'and'potentially'
damage'the'product,'resulting'in'a'voided'warranty.''
•Do'not'use'highVpressure'pumps'or'air'compressors'to'inflate'this'product.'Limit'='3.5'psi'
'
INFLATING'THE'AIRTOP'
•Step'1:'Open'the'tabs'off'the'tops'of'the'valves.'Push'the'plunger'in'and'turn'it'either'way'to'
keep'it'open.''
•NOTE:'Inflating'the'piece'without'opening'the'valve'puts'unnecessary'pressure'on'the'pump.'
'
' '
'
'
•Step'2:'Fasten'the'yellow'hose'to'the'correct'side'of'the'pump.'Align'the'black'plastic'end'of'the'
hose'with'the'button'on'the'pump'casing'and'turn'to'ensure'a'tight'fit.''

'
'
•IMPORTANT:'when'operating'the'pump,'do'not'obstruct'or'cover'it.'The'vents'on'either'side'
must'not'face'down.'Doing'so'can'damage'the'motor.'
•Step'4:'Once'the'product'is'fully'inflated,'turn'off'the'pump'and'remove'the'hose'from'the'
valve.'
•Step'5:'Promptly'reVplace'the'tabs'on'the'valves,'turning'them'slightly'to'tighten.''
'
USING'THE'AIRTOP''
•Once'the'product'is'fully'inflated'users'sit'on'each'of'the'saddle'arms.'
•Hold'onto'the'handle'straps'found'near'the'top'of'the'product'to'avoid'falling'off.''
•Users'attempt'to'tip'the'AirTop'in'different'directions'just'like'in'a'teeterVtotter.''
•Whether'users'are'sitting'or'standing'on'the'edges'of'the'AirTop,'it'is'recommended'that'users'
hold'onto'the'straps'when'it'is'moving.'
•The'safety'guidelines'in'this'manual'must'be'followed.''
•Discontinue'use'if'an'unsafe'situation'arises,'whether'it'be'in'the'use'(see'Safety'Information)'or'
in'the'condition'of'the'product'(see'Before'Using).'Do'not'allow'use'until'the'issues'are'
corrected.'
'
DEFLATING'AND'PUTTING'AWAY'
•Step'1:'Flip'the'tabs'off'the'top'of'the'valves.'For'deflation,'depress'and'turn'the'plunger'

' '
'
'
•Step'3:'Deflate'completely'until'all'the'air'is'out'of'the'product.'Then'turn'the'plunger'up'to'
close'the'valve.'This'prevents'air'from'being'pulled'back'into'the'unit.''
'
'
'
'
•(If'you'do'not'have'the'use'of'a'vacuum'blower'do'the'following):'
•Step'4:'Roll'out'as'much'air'as'possible'before'storing.'Once'it'is'rolled'more'air'will'escape.'
•Step'5:'Once'it'is'folded,'tie'up'and'put'it'back'inside'the'outer'bag.''
•Do'not'store'it'without'placing'it'inside'the'outer'bag.'This'protects'from'surface'abrasions.''

PROPERLY'MAINTAINING'THE'AIRTOP''
•Use'on'smooth,'flat'surfaces'only.'Avoid'excessively'hot'or'abrasive'surfaces'as'these'can'
prematurely'wear'out'the'bottom'of'the'product.'
•Frequent'use'will'gradually'change'the'inside'pressure.'ReVinflate'as'needed.'
•Hot'weather'expands'the'air'inside'the'product,'which'can'strain'the'seams.'Remove'air'as'
required.''
•Hot'surfaces'can'damage'the'material.''
•The'product'should'be'cleaned'after'regular'use.'Use'either'soap'and'water'or'409'and'allow'
adequate'drying'time.'Do'not'use'abrasive'cleaners'or'highVpressure'washers.'
•If'loss'of'air'pressure'is'noticed,'check'for'leaks'or'ruptures'in'the'seams.'See'Dealing'with'
Repairs'instructions'below.'
•Never'store'the'product'when'it'is'wet'or'damp.''
•Do'not'inflate'the'unit'if'it'is'very'cold.'Allow'time'for'it'to'warm'up.''
'
NOTE:'The'repair'kit'contains'colored'vinyl'patches'and'glue.'To'effectively'use'the'repair'kit,'other'
material'(not'included)'may'be'needed:'soap'&'water,'scissors,'marker,'paintbrush,'rubbing'alcohol,'
sandpaper.'Both'AirTop'Large'and'AirTop'Small'use'the'same'repair'kit.'
For'quick'repairs'use'Tear'Aid'(available'online).'For'seams'use'McNett’s'Seam'Grip'(available'in'most'
sporting'goods'stores'or'online).'
DEALING'WITH'REPAIRS''
•In'the'unlikely'event'that'the'product'springs'a'leak'or'punctures,'follow'repair'kit'instructions'
below.'
•If'a'leak'is'suspected,'look'for'it'while'the'product'is'fully'inflated.''
•Use'a'mix'of'soap'and'water'and'sprinkle'it'over'a'suspected'leak.'If'the'soapy'water'bubbles,'
the'leak'has'been'found.'''
•Dry'the'area'around'the'leak'with'a'cloth.'Mark'the'spot'of'the'leak'so'it'can'be'easily'located'
later.'
•Deflate'the'unit'completely.'Do'not'attempt'to'patch'leaks'when'the'unit'is'inflated.'
•Cut'a'piece'of'vinyl'patch'to'fit'over'the'leak'or'hole,'making'sure'it'is'approximately'2.5'inches'
larger'in'every'direction'than'the'leak.'For'best'results,'use'patches'with'rounded'edges.''
•Rub'the'back'of'the'vinyl'patch'and'the'site'of'the'leak'with'a'piece'of'sandpaper.'This'will'
improve'the'adhesion'of'the'patch.'Clean'both'with'rubbing'alcohol'before'gluing.''
•Once'the'surface'is'clean,'dryVfit'the'patch'over'the'leak.'Using'a'small'paintbrush'or'dish'
sponge,'apply'a'layer'of'glue'to'the'area'covered'by'the'patch.''
•Apply'the'patch'quickly'and'apply'even'pressure'to'fit'the'patch'firmly'on'all'corners.'
•Allow'approximately'1'minute'for'drying.'The'bond'will'remain'strong'but'the'product'should'
not'be'inflated'and'used'for'at'least'24'hours'after'patching.'
