BOZEMAN PONTOON BOAT OWNER’S MANUAL

1. Check the inflation valves.

2. Give them a visual inspection, making sure the valve is closing

properly and the valve cap closes securely.

3a.Checkifyoucanhearairescaping.Youmayalsousesoapywater

around the valve to see bubbles. A leak will produce bubbles. If you

find that a valve is leaking air around its edge, the valve may be

loose.

3b. The inflation valve consists of a two-part

assembly. There is the inflation valve intself

and the inflation valve cage. The inflation

valve cage protects the inflation valve from

damage and is bonded into the pontoon

bladder.

4. To tighten a loose valve insert the Inflation

Valve Wrench into the valve and twist

clockwise (note: do not overtighten). It may

be necessary to grasp the inflation valve cage (which is inside the

pontoon bladder) to get enough purchase to twist the valve. Be

careful not to tear or rip the bladder skin.

If the valve is difficult to turn, remove the valve completely and add a

small amount of silicon grease to the valve O-ring and reassemble.

If the valve is not leaking around its edge, you may have a defective

valve.

Please visit our website at: www.classicaccessories.com to order a new

valve.

to check for holes or tears. Completely unscrew the inflation

valve from the inflation valve cage and remove bladder from

the skin. Reinsert valve and proceed to page 16.

If your boat appears to be losing air, it might not be because of a leak. Changes in air

temperature, elevation and use on cold water (which can cool the air inside the pontoon

bladders) can all have an effect on the air inside the bladders. If none of these factors have

changed, you may need to look for a leak. Follow the steps listed below.
