Product Configurations
Assembling your Extreme Turbo Chute
Step 1: Setup
Make sure the slope and surrounding area are free from
obstructions. If using into a lake, ensure lakeshore and planned
entry area into the water are free from obstructions as well. Ensure
that the entire length of the chosen slide path is free of rocks,
bumps, depressions, sticks, etc., and the surface beneath the
Extreme Turbo Chute is either smooth grass or sand.
A minimum of 7°slope angle is suggested for sliding (approx. 5 ft
drop in 40 ft of length). DO NOT exceed 40°slope angle.
C A U T I O N
THE STEEPER THE SLOPE,
THE FASTER AND FURTHER YOU WILL SLIDE
DO NOT use on slopes that create danger to the user as a
result of excess speed.
!!
(x3) 20’ Straight
sections (#02697)
(x2) Start Ramps
(#02445)
(x10) Turbo Sled
(#02446)
Any number of 20’ Straight
Sections can be added to
accommodate any slide length.

6
Do not use if your hill or lakeshore does not meet these
requirements.
Place deflated slide sections on the shore or similar firm surface with
sufficient clearance to inflate and transport the inflated section to the
location you intend to use it. Make sure the area is free of all sharp
sticks, rocks or other objects that could puncture the product.
Step 2: Inflate
To inflate, use either the RAVE High
Speed Inflator (#01083) or the RAVE
120v Canister Inflator (#02342).
Locate the valves on each side rail of
the slide straight sections. Inflate
bladder 50% full and check to ensure
bladder is not twisted and valve is
properly aligned with the hole in the
cover. Adjust the bladder if necessary.
Inflate side rails to firm but not hard. Inflating the product too firm
initially can make it difficult to join the sections together. Assemble
slide with sections partially full and top off inflation pressure in side rail
tubes once entire slide is set up.
A special inflation adaptor (included with the
High Speed Inflator) is needed for the
Inflatable Start Ramps. Simply lock the
adaptor onto the end of the inflation hose
and insert into the valve body. Turn ¼ turn to
lock in place.
NOTE: This inflation adaptor will automatically open the valve
when inserted and will close the valve when removed. You do
not need to manually open/close the valve when using this
special adaptor.

7
To manually open valve, depress the stem
and rotate clockwise. To close valve, depress
the stem and rotate counter-clockwise.
Note: It is normal for the air pressure within
the tube to fluctuate depending on air and
water temperatures. It may be necessary to
increase or decrease the air pressure in your product accordingly. To
avoid damage on extremely hot days it may be necessary to check
and release the air pressure from your product throughout the day.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT OVER-INFLATE.
Do not exceed 1 PSI if filling with compressed air. Excessive
pressure can cause the tube to rupture with potentially
damaging force to eyes, ears, skin and limbs. Use of an air
compressor or over-inflation can rupture the tube beyond
repair, thus voiding the warranty.

Step 3: Lake Assembly & Positioning
Begin by positioning the end of a straight
Extreme Turbo Chute section in the water at
a depth of 24 inches or more and at least 10
feet from shore. This will be the end of your
slide. If one section isn’t long enough to
reach the shore, attach additional sections until the slide reaches the
shore. Use the staking loops to attach anchor lines and anchor
weights to help prevent movement in windy conditions.
Attach each straight Extreme Turbo Chute
section so that the warning label is
positioned on the lead (uphill) end of the
slide. Ensure all Velcro®strips are securely
fastened together and there is a smooth
transition from section to section without
gaps.
For Extreme Turbo Chute sections that are on solid ground, ensure
that each section is properly staked down using the provided stakes
and straps that are attached to each section. Straps should be staked
45 degrees uphill to prevent downhill movement of the Extreme Turbo
Chute during use.
The Inflatable Start Ramps should be at the top of the hill and the last
section to be attached to the slide and staked down.

9
To correctly position your slide:
1. Output end of slide must extend at least 10 feet out from the
waters edge (shoreline) and be floating.
2. Water depth at the end of the slide should be a minimum of 24
inches deep and should be free of rocks and other obstructions.
3. The Inflatable Start Ramps should be situated at the beginning of
the slide, on a level or slightly downward sloping surface of no
more than 10 degrees in slope.
4. Ensure there is a smooth transition from land to water. Excavate,
use fill sand or other means of creating this smooth transition.
5.Add additional 20’ sections to the Extreme Turbo Chute if slide is
too short to meet the criteria above.
(x2) Start Ramps (#02445)
(X2) Start mats are optional (#02444)

10
Step 3: Lawn Assembly & Positioning
Begin by positioning one of the 20’ sections at the bottom of the hill
where there is level ground. This will
be the end of your slide. Attach each
straight Turbo Chute section so that the
warning label is positioned on the lead
(uphill) end of the slide. Ensure all
Velcro®strips are securely fastened
together and there is a smooth
transition from section to section
without gaps.
As you attach each section of your Extreme Turbo Chute, ensure that
it is properly staked down using the provided stakes and straps that
are attached to each section. Straps should be staked 45 degrees
uphill to prevent downhill movement of the Extreme Turbo Chute
during use. The Inflatable Start Ramps should be at the top of the hill
and should be the last section to be attached to the slide and staked
down.
NOTE: CATCH POOL not available.

11
Sliding down Extreme Turbo Chute
Before sliding, wet the slide surface and the underside of turbo sled
with water. Sliding on a dry surface can cause burns to the skin or will
result in poor slide performance. Use a garden hose or water pumped
directly from lake to provide constant flow of water. To enhance
speed and performance, throw a bucket of water onto the slide just as
the person is beginning to slide.
Slide on stomach, facing forward using the Turbo Sled. ALWAYS
BEGIN SLIDING ON INFLATABLE START RAMPS. NEVER DIVE
HEAD FIRST ONTO THIS SLIDE. Diving Head first may result in
serious injury, including paralysis. DO NOT STAND, KNEEL,
CROUCH OR ATTEMPT TO USE SLIDE WITHOUT TURBO SLED.
Ensure slide and/or water (if using in a lake) at the end of the Extreme
Turbo Chute are clear of obstructions and other people before going
down slide.
NOTE: Sliding performance on any slope can be enhanced with the
following techniques:
1. Increase the volume of water being applied at the top of the slide.
2. Use environmentally friendly liquid dish soap. Squirt soap onto
top of slide and bottom of sled periodically as needed.
3. Apply car wax to surface of dry slide. Hand buff excess wax to
create a slick surface.

Cleaning and Storage
When the product is not being used, store it in a covered, shaded
area. This will help protect it against ultraviolet (UV) rays and
extend the life of the product.
Clean the slide completely with a mild soap and fresh water.
NEVER USE PETROLEUM BASED PRODUCTS OR SOLVENTS
FOR CLEANING. NEVER USE A POWER WASHER SINCE THE
HIGH PRESSURE WATER WILL DAMAGE THE TUBE BEYOND
REPAIR.
Ensure product is completely dry before storing
For storage, roll the product loosely and place in a container,
preferably one that rodents can’t chew through.
Secure against unauthorized and unsupervised use.
Store in a cool, dry location. Do not store product directly on
concrete surface. Place mothballs around stored inflatable to keep
mice and insects away.

13
Troubleshooting
Air chambers won’t hold air:
Check to make sure all valves are completely closed.
Check for holes in the slide following the procedures in the
“Repairs” section.
Repairs
Additional repair patches can be purchased at www.ravesports.com.
For Minor Holes or Punctures:
Remove the bladder from cover
Inflate the slide and locate the leak by spraying the tube with
soapy water. Bubbles will appear where there is a leak. Mark
location of hole.
Determine the hole size and cut a circular patch ½ - 1 inch wider
than the hole with repair kit included with the product.
Remove air from the tube and dry tube completely where the
patch is to be applied.
Peel off paper back from patch, apply repair patch to area and
work out any air bubbles from beneath the patch.
Apply weight to the patched area for one hour before re-inflating.
