Assembly

Once the lounger has been inflated, repeat the following steps on both sides of your

Motorized Pool Lounger. Be sure to assemble it on a raised surface to prevent the motor assembly from being damaged.

First, take out the wrench provided in the accessories kit as shown in Figure 19.

Next, assemble the battery cover with the nuts, bolts, and orings in place, as shown in

Figure 21.

Figure 21

Place the nut onto the bolt and place them onto the battery compartment hole, as shown in

Figure 22.

Figure 39

To move, press the buttons on both handles. These buttons will operate your propellers.

To drive forward, turn both handles so they are facing forward and press the buttons.

To drive in reverse, turn both handles so they are facing backward and press the buttons.

To turn right, turn either handle to the right. The angle of your turn will depend on how much you turn the handles to the right.

To move laterally towards the right, turn both handles right and press both buttons.

To move laterally towards the left, turn both handles left and press both buttons.

To turn in a circle, face one propeller forward and the other backward and press the buttons.

Disassembly

To disassemble your

Motorized Pool Lounger, please follow these instructions.

First, unscrew the six hexagon screws from the battery cover. Remove the screws and the battery cover, as shown in Figure 40.

To turn left, turn either handle to the left. The angle of your turn will depend on how much you turn the handles to the left.

Repairing the

Motorized Pool Lounger Remove the control arm sleeve from the Motorized

Pool Lounger by lifting it out from the top.

Open the valve cover to deflate the Motorized Pool

Lounger, starting with the larger cavities, as shown in

Figure 45.

Rough surfaces may puncture the Motorized Pool

Lounger. If the lounger gets punctured, use the glue and

PVC from the restoration kit to repair the punctured surface.

15

Apply the glue on the damaged area and apply the supplementary PVC sheet.

Wait approximately one minute for the glue to dry after applying the PVC sheet before handling your

Motorized Pool Lounger.

You should wait approximately 24 hours before using the Motorized Pool

Lounger in your pool again.

How to Use the Electric

Air Pump

The electric air pump is a high-volume, low-pressure pump, as shown in Figure

47. This is intended to inflate or deflate items, such as your Motorized Pool

Lounger and air mattresses.

To use your electric air pump, please follow these instructions.

Figure 47

To Inflate

Turn the

ON / OFF switch to

OFF

.

Plug the electrical cord into a wall socket.

Insert the correct adapter size onto the nozzle of the electric air pump. If you are using it for the Motorized

Pool Lounger, you will need to use the medium size adapter.

Insert the tip of the adapter into the valve of the inflat-

20 able item and switch

ON to begin inflation.

While inflating, be sure not to obstruct the valve.

This may cause the pump to overheat.

When inflating large items, such as a king-size air mattress, the pump should fit directly into the valve of the inflatable item for fast inflation. Use the appropriate adapter for smaller valves.

To Deflate

To deflate an inflatable item, open the valves of the inflated item. You can either allow it to deflate on its own.

If you want to expedite the deflation process, follow these instructions.

Turn the

ON

/

OFF switch to

OFF. Plug the electrical cord into a wall socket.

Insert the deflation port

(located on the top of the electric air pump) into the valve of the inflatable item and switch

ON to begin deflation.

Figure 48 Figure 49

Special Care & Handling for the Electric Air Pump

Avoid rough handling, such as bumping or dropping.

Avoid moisture and extreme temperatures. For best results, use between the temperatures of 39˚ F and 100˚ F

(4˚ C and 38˚ C).

Clean using only a slightly damp cloth. Do not use cleaners with chemical agents.

21

Warning for Electric Air Pump

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, consult an appliance repair-person. Do not attempt to force the plug into the wall outlet.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use if the power cord appears damaged.

Never over-inflate an item. The pressure may cause the item to burst.

Do not leave the pump unintended while it's turned on.

Do not use the pump in wet conditions.

Do not face the ports of the pump towards your face, especially your eyes.

Do not insert fingers or other objects into the ports of the pump at any time.

Do not place the pump on the ground when turned it. It could suck in rocks and other small objects. This will break the pump.

• Do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

• Do not leave the pump on for an extended period of time.

This may burn out the motor.

Keep out of reach of children.
