Inatable Products – Aquaglide makes some of the highest quality inatable 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 inating this item. Strong winds can make it difcult to

control this product. Be aware of weather conditions before installation.

Air Pump - Use an air pump recommended for inating 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 ination are not recommended because they can easily lead to

over-ination.

Valve(s) – This product uses Halkey Roberts – type (HR) valves. 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 at tool to twist the tamper-resistant cap counter-clock-

wise. To close, insert the cap and twist clockwise using the same

tool. Note: cap is the secondary air seal. See A.

To inate, an air pump with Halkey Roberts – type (HR) valve tting is

required. Insert tting 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 inate and product

use (plunger out = 1-way airow). Press plunger and turn 90 degrees

to deate (plunger in = 2-way airow). Note: valve is primary air seal.

After ination, close with cap for secondary seal. See C.

Pressure Release Valve: Product is tted with a pressure release valve (PRV) in

critical chamber(s) to help provide catastrophic protection against damage caused

by over-ination. It is still necessary to check and regulate air pressure to maintain

proper working pressure levels. PRV has a unique setting specied 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 overll or underll. 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 underlled 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.

ASSEMBLY

Inate (1-way) Deate (2-way)

www.aquaglide.com

Chart 1 – Working Pressure by Chamber - Arete 10

Locate a at, dry area with access to outlet for electrical pump. The best setup position will also make

launching easy. Never drag product as damage may occur.

1. Unfold product completely and locate Main Valve [1]. To help future storage, closely note original fold-

ing & packaging method. Remove valve cap and conrm valve is in inate (1-way airow) position. This item

has two main valves to allow the option of using multiple pumps to reduce inate/ deate time.

2. Insert air pump hose with proper valve tting into Main Valve [1], lock into place. Use pump to inate

Main Valve [1] to Working Pressure as shown in Chart 1.

3. Conrm that suitable anchor(s) and mooring lines are in place before launching this item (see

Anchoring).

4. To launch product, lift completely and place in water. Large items may require many extra people to

accomplish this. Never drag product as damage may occur.

5. When connecting multiple items together, always follow manufacturer’s recommendations. Use only

Aquaglide Two-Step Vario-lock cinch straps and connecting rings. Make sure connection is tight and there

is NO GAP between items. Failure to connect items properly may result in injury or death. See E1 - E6.

a. Attach straps to ‘Boarding Features’ (example: Swimstep, Splashmat, Speedway, Breezeway or

Deck) where a connection is required. Boarding Features should not be attached to other Boarding

Features.

b. Use all available rings to make connection. Standard connections use 5 rings. Some items use 3 or

occasionally 7 rings/ straps. ARETE 10 is a Main Feature item with 5-ring connections on 2 sides.

c. Float ‘Boarding Feature’ into desired position. Note: a matching set of connecting rings is required

on feature item.

d. Attach center strap to center ring on feature item. Connect loosely, then work outward until all

straps are connected.

e. Dive beneath to tighten all straps securely. Dive mask and several attempts may be required.

Proper anchoring is essential to the safety and performance of this product. Use of professional anchoring

services recommended. If improperly anchored, product can move and/or oat away. Aquaglide is not

responsible for damage, injury or loss due to improper anchoring.

Open Water: (General guidelines - not intended to replace need for professional installation)

1. Place product in an area protected from wind and boat trafc. Conrm allowances for stated minimum

water depth, safe distance away from hard objects and vertical clearance requirements.

2. Consider prevailing conditions such as wind, waves and other environmental factors in positioning this

item. Inatable items can be unstable in strong winds. Slide faces are best positioned toward a breeze, not

across it. Check water and seabed for sharp or dangerous objects.

3. Keep product a safe distance from docks, boats, boat lifts, and any other structures. To prevent poten-

tial damage to product, injury or death, NEVER tie the product to a dock.

4. Use one vertical mooring line for each anchor ring with an appropriate weight anchor, ground screw, or

earth anchor at base. For exposed anchorages or water depth greater than 20ft. (6m), bridles connecting

two rings to one mooring line may be preferable.

5. Anchor weight recommendations based on average conditions. Sites with potential for extreme weather,

strong tides, currents, winds and/ or swell should consider using up to 50% additional weight or holding

power.

6. Install anchors and mooring lines before inating this product.

Commercial Pool:

1. Product placement in commercial pool should be checked carefully in advance to conrm allowances for

the stated minimum water depth, safe distance away from hard objects (pool edge) and vertical clearance

requirements. Most residential pools cannot meet these requirements.

2. Pool moorings typically use a minimum of 4 horizontal mooring lines made from heavy duty elastic.

Additional horizontal moorings should be added to increase stability and as necessary for larger product

groups.

3. Horizontal Moorings are usually attached to pool anchor eyes, such as those used to secure lane buoy

lines. Adjust mooring lines to keep product(s) under tension at all times.

Arete 10 is a oating jump station and climbing feature for use in water. Users may climb using routes on

either side and slide or jump into the water in multiple locations.

PVC surfaces are slipperier when wet, which can lead to loss of balance when walking or climbing. Slide

surfaces will perform better when previously wetted. Chemical treatments are available to reduce friction on

sliding surfaces, but are not generally necessary if products are kept clean.

Maintain Working Pressure: Air pressure is temperature dependent. Always conrm proper working

pressure before and during use as changing temperatures may affect the internal pressure. If product

shows signs of instability or pressure loss, discontinue use until product is returned to working pressure

and/or repairs made.
