Important Safety Guidelines Please read & understand prior to using boat To enhance the enjoyment of your boat and protect the safety of the operator using the product, ALWAYS STRICTLY OBSERVE the following important safety points. 1. WARNING: Boat designed for use in sheltered water only. 2. WARNING: This in not a life saving device. Use only under competent supervision. Never allow diving or jumping into this product. Never leave in or near the water when not in use. Never tow from any vehicle.
13. Your boat is designed to be a storable, seasonal boat. If the boat will not be in use year-round, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you deflate the boat and dry it thoroughly, and store it in a protected area for the off-season. This will help extend your boats life and prevent a safety hazard from developing while the boat is not in use. 14. WARNING: Certain household cleaning solvents, chemicals and other liquids (such as battery acid, oil and gasoline) could damage the PVC fabric.
4. Please see the Safety Valve Diagram #1. Inflation: Unscrew the valve cap (A1). Attach the air pump hose nozzle and twist to lock the hose to the valve. As each chamber is inflated detach the hose and screw in the valve cap (A2). 5. Deflation: Remove the Valve Cap (A1) push down the Deflation Button (B) and turn the valve clockwise by 90 degrees until it is locked. Release the valve and the air will flow out.
Trouble Shooting • If your boat appears to have lost air, first check that all valves are tightly shit. Also, notice if the temperature has cooled. As stated before, this may cause the pressure to decrease. If either of these has occurred, add air to return the boat to pressure. • Sometimes the high pressure valve may become loose. To check this, use the supplied valve wrench in the repair kit to tighten the valve. Turn lightly in clockwise direction.
Motor Mount Assembly Your Quest or Sportsman boat can accept an MMIB Motor Mount. The assembly and installation is very fast and simple. It is easiest to attach the motor mount with the boat slightly deflated. Simply attach the motor mount to the steel support bars with the 8 provided screws and bolts. Next, slide the support bars in to the 4 eyelets on the boat. Finally, secure the support bars in to the top eyelets with the 2 provided nuts and bolts.
