The HSFC ZG ISUP is equipped with an H3 high-pressure valve for inflation and deflation. The board also comes with a repair kit for small puncture repairs. The fins can be easily attached and the board should be cleaned and stored properly to ensure longevity.
Product Usage Instructions
Inflation
- Unscrew the cap of the H3 high-pressure valve to check if it is closed by pushing the spring-loaded valve.
- Pump the HS ISUP to the desired pressure using a high-pressure pump.
Deflation
- Make sure that the valve area is dry before deflating.
- Unscrew the valve cap and push the valve stem down lightly to release air quickly.
- Once air release slows, push the valve stem down and turn it clockwise to keep the valve in the open position.
- Roll up the board from the opposite end of the valve to let the remaining air escape.
- Push the valve stem up to close the valve and then close the cap securely.
- The side fins should be facing outwards to maintain their shape.
Note:
The wrench included in the repair kit should only be used to tighten leaking
valves, which happens rarely. Do not use it to deflate the board.
Fins
- Insert the back of the fin into the front of the track on the center fin box and slide it all the way back.
- Secure the fin by inserting the tethered clip all the way through the hole.
- Check that the fin is locked in by wiggling it to make sure that it is securely attached.
Cleaning/Storage
- Clean your HS ISUP and accessories thoroughly after each use, rinsing off any sand or saltwater residue. Use a mild soapy solution for cleaning.
- Make sure the board is completely dry before storing it.
- When storing your board, keep it in a cool and dry place that is not susceptible to major temperature variations and other damaging factors.
- You may store it deflated and rolled up in the storage bag (recommended) or partially inflated.
Repair Kit
You can repair small punctures with the included patch and glue.
Safety
Always wear appropriate safety gear such as a life jacket when using the
HSFC ZG ISUP. Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of 265 lbs. Follow all

INFLATION
- Your HS ISUP is equipped with an H3 high-pressure valve. Unscrew the cap and check if the valve is closed by pushing the spring-loaded stem down and turning it. If the stem stays down, the valve is open, and air will escape after pumping. To close it, push the stem down and turn it counterclockwise until it springs up. It is now a one-way air valve, and air can be pumped into the valve but can not escape out of the valve.
- Attach your pump hose to the valve by turning the nozzle clockwise to lock it in place.
- Inflate to 15 PSI. The manual pump will not register until 7-8 PSI. Keep pumping if the gauge has not registered. Only use HS-branded or approved electric pumps with an automatic shutoff to avoid overinflation. Never use an air compressor.
- After inflation, disconnect the hose from the valve by pressing it down and turning it counterclockwise. Close the valve with the cap.
- When inflated, there may be a small bump on the bottom of the board, directly underneath the valve. This is normal and will not effect its performance. This space is necessary during manufacturing to insert and connect the valve to the board.
- Never transport the HS ISUP fully inflated. Damages or warping incurred by improper transport are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
- Do not leave your HS ISUP in direct sunlight when out of the water. Find a shaded area for it. Prolonged sun exposure can damage the board and increase the internal pressure beyond the maximum safety recommendation of 15 PSI, and void the warranty.
DEFLATION
- Make sure that the valve area is dry.
- Unscrew the valve cap and push the valve stem down lightly. Air will rush out quickly at first, then slowly release.
- Once air release slows, push the valve stem down and turn it clockwise to keep the valve in the open position.
- Roll up the board from the opposite end of the valve so remaining air can escape. Once all the air has been released, push the valve stem up to close the valve and then close the cap.
- The side fins should be facing out to maintain their shape.
The wrench included in the repair kit should only be used to tighten leaking valves, which happens rarely. Never use it to deflate your board.
FINS
- Insert the back of the fin into the front of the track on the center fin box and slide it all the way back.
- Secure the fin by inserting the tethered clip all the way through the hole.
- Check that the fin is locked in by wiggling it to make sure that it is securely attached.
CLEANING/STORAGE
- Clean your HS ISUP and accessories thoroughly after each use, rinsing off any sand or saltwater residue. Use a mild soapy solution for cleaning.
- Make sure the board is completely dry before storing it.
- When storing your board, keep it in a cool and dry place that is not susceptible to major temperature variations and other damaging factors. You may store it deflated and rolled up in the storage bag (recommended), or partially inflated.
REPAIR KIT
You can repair small punctures with the included patch and glue.
