Cleaning and Storage
 When the inflatable product is not being used, store it in a
covered, shaded area. This will help protect it against ultraviolet
(UV) rays and extend the life of the product.
 Clean the inflatable completely with a mild soap and fresh water.
NEVER USE PETROLEUM BASED PRODUCTS OR
SOLVENTS FOR CLEANING. NEVER USE A POWER
WASHER SINCE THE HIGH PRESSURE WATER JET WILL
DAMAGE THE TUBE BEYOND REPAIR.
 Product should be completely dry and remain dry while stored.
 Ensure the protective caps are installed onto the frame posts.
Roll the product loosely and place in a container, preferably one
that rodents can’t chew through.
 Disassemble entire frame and store separately from the tube.
 Secure against unauthorized or unsupervised use.
 Store in a cool, dry location. Do not store product directly on
concrete surface. Place mothballs around stored inflatable to
keep mice and insects away.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Important ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Rodents like muskrats may be attracted to the PVC vinyl of your product.
When your product is on the water, maintaining full air pressure during
periods of non-use will discourage them from chewing the vinyl.
Another way to ease the problem of nuisance rodents is to remove the
temptation by taking the product out of the water at night. You can also
make the whole area unattractive to rodents by changing the
environment, making the area less hospitable for rodents. Removing
any food source from the shoreline can also be a good deterrent. Check
with your local DNR for additional guidance or possible restrictions.
