PROPER INFLATION

During final inflation, inflate until most of the wrinkles in the fabric are gone and 
it feels firm 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 
inflated 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 
inflated, 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.
