Take the bag down to the water's edge Open the bag and remove the paddle, and assemble the paddle
(see step by step guide).
Unfold the SUP on a soft, flat surface. Place the Drive next to the SUP on a clean and flat surface (right on the
board bag is best). Unscrew both of the screws on the Drive's cover and remove it. DO NOT be surprised if this
takes a little effort (see step by step guide).
Connect the inflation hose to the compressor and the valve at the back of the SUP. The inflation hose MUST not
be twisted or bent (see step by step guide).
Valve Operation:
The board's inflation valve is located near the back of the board. To open the valve for inflation, make sure that
the center valve pin is in the "up" position. If it is in the "down" position, press down on the valve pin and turn it
counterclockwise until it pops up.
To open the valve for deflation, press down on the valve pin and turn it clockwise so it locks down. Be careful
of any sand or debris around the valve area when deflating as small particles could become airborne with the
release of air pressure. Clean the area with a clean cloth before opening the valve, if necessary.
CAUTION!
Always lock the valve cap over the valve stem when in use. This will prevent accidental air release
and entrance of any particles into the air chambers. (see picture 1)
CAUTION!
If the valve is in the wrong position (open, see picture 3), you will waste the battery and possibly
overheat the compressor. As soon as you detach the inflation hose from the filling hole, all the air pumped in the
board will immediately be released, wasting your time, energy, and not to mention nerves. Note that not following
the instructions carefully may void the warranty.
