Inflatable Products – Aquaglide makes some of the highest quality inflatable products in
the world. With proper care and maintenance, our products are expected to last for years
under normal use. We list important tips and instructions below. If unsure about any point,
please reach us through our website at Aquaglide.com/contact-us.
Note: see Anchoring instructions (below) before inflating this item. Strong winds can make it
difficult to control this product. Be aware of weather conditions before installation.
Air Pump - Use an air pump recommended for inflating your product. For products this
size, use of a high-volume electrical pump is best. Air pressure requirements are low
– 5.0psi (0,35bar) or less. Air compressors designed for high-pressure inflation are not
recommended because they can easily lead to over-inflation.
Valve(s) – This product uses a Halkey Roberts – type (HR) valve.
Valve attaches to product using a threaded backing plate, making it
easily replaceable in the unlikely event of damage.
Access valve using a coin or flat tool to twist the tamper-resistant
cap counter-clockwise. To close, insert the cap and twist clockwise
using the same tool. Note: cap is the secondary air seal. See valve
operation. See A.
To inflate, an air pump with Halkey Roberts – type (HR)
valve fitting is required. Insert fitting into valve and twist
clockwise to lock in place. See B.
Valve Operation: To operate Halkey Roberts – type
(HR) valve, press plunger and turn 90 degrees to set
valve for inflate and product use (plunger out =
1-way airflow). Press plunger and turn 90 degrees
to deflate (plunger in = 2-way airflow). Note: valve
is primary air seal. After inflation, close with cap
for secondary seal. See C.
Pressure Release Valve: Product is fitted with
a pressure release valve (PRV) in critical slide
chamber to help provide catastrophic protection against damage
caused by over-inflation. It is still necessary to check and regulate
air pressure to maintain proper working pressure levels. PRV has a
unique setting specified to release above, and to close near working
pressure. PRV attaches to product using a threaded backing plate,
making it easily serviceable. See D.
Proper Working Pressure for each chamber is listed below. Do
not overfill or underfill. Excessive pressure can cause damage to the product and may void
the warranty. Do not use without adequate air pressure. Product can become unstable if
underfilled and may not support indicated capacity. Use a pressure gauge (manometer) to
carefully monitor air pressure in the product especially during hot or cool periods.
