back support. An overinflated seat will bulge out in the center
of both pillows and not be comfortable to sit on.
Deluxe One-Way Valve
makes
inflation easier. The outer cap of
the one-way valves makes the
permanent seal, and must be
fastened firmly. Be sure the
threads are not crossed when
tightening the cap or screwing
the valve base. Also check to
make sure there is no sand or dirt that could break the seal.
To inflate your seat, simply place
the large round nozzle into the
valve.
To deflate, unscrew the inner
valve and remove. Most of the air
will rush out in a minute or two,
and any remaining air will be
forced out when the seat is rolled
up for storage. Please note, seat
can be rolled up and left in the
boating you wish.
Clip the straps of the Deluxe Inflatable Seat to the D-rings on
the pontoons to secure it to the boat as shown below.

Inflation with Electric Pumps
MB-100 High Pressure
Electric Pump
is
specifically designed for
high pressure inflatable
boats like our Sea Eagle
285 FPB. It has a set of
alligator clips to hook on to
a 12 Volt car battery just
like a jump cable.
Make sure your pump is off and hook the red positive
alligator clip to the positive terminal of your battery. Hook
the negative clip to the negative terminal of your battery.
Adjust the pressure dial on the
MB-100 pump to 220 millibar, or
3.2 PSI as shown, and plug the
hose into the valve opening above
the dial for inflation.
The opening
on the other side of the pump is
for deflation, which is not required
for our boats.
Please note, the MB-100 Pump
comes with a cluster of 8 adapters
that are numbered from 1 to 8.
These numbers are written on the
arms of the cluster that hold each
adapter. You have to carefully
read these numbers on the arms
of the cluster.
Detach adapter #7 and insert it
into the hose. Now push the
threaded end of adapter #1 into adapter #7. Now push this
adapter into the Recessed One-Way Valve and switch on
the pump. It will change gears during inflation and
automatically stop once the pontoons are fully inflated at
3.2 psi air pressure.
The
BST Super
Turbo Electric
Pump
features
a two stage
pumping system
- a high speed
fan to quickly
inflate your hull,
and a piston
pump to
achieve the
desired
pressure our SE
285 FPB needs. Not only is this pump amazingly fast, but
it is portable as well. The high capacity battery can inflate
our SE 285 FPB two or three times between charges.
Includes valve multiple adapters, high capacity battery, 110
volt household charger & 12 volt cigarette lighter adapter
for car use.
The BST Super Turbo Electric Pump also has an
adjustable pressure dial and a cluster of 8 valve adapters
like our MB-100 Pump. Adjust the dial of the BST pump to
220 millibar, or 3.2 PSI. Insert one end of the hose to the
opening on the pump that has an arrow pointing outward
(for inflation).
The opening on the other side of the pump
with an arrow pointing inward is for deflation, which is not
required for our boats.
Attach the other end of the hose to
adapter # 1 from the cluster. Push the adapter in the
Recessed One-Way Valve on the boat and switch on the
pump. The pump will go through the two stage pumping
system - a high speed fan to quickly inflate your hull, and a
piston pump to achieve the desired pressure our Sea
Eagle 285 FPB will need. It will automatically stop once
the pontoon is fully inflated at desired pressure of 3.2 PSI.
