Setup Instructions:
(Please check out the latest manuals and Instruction videos)
Step 1: (Preparation)
Choose a smooth surface and make sure there are no sharp objects under the
product which might puncture the vinyl then lay out the slide facing up on a
flat surface.
Step 2: (Connect the pump)
Locate the valves. The main air chamber has a valve and the two side rails
have valves.
Note: Minima has one air valve for the slide and safety rails.
To lock open valve, depress the stem and rotate ¼ turn clockwise. To close
valve, depress the stem and rotate ¼ turn counter-clockwise. The valve stem
should be in the depressed position while inflating. Replace the cap on valve
after inflation to ensure air tight seal.
Using the electric pump in the package, lock the adaptor onto the end of the pump and insert it into the valve body with the special inflation adaptor included with the pump. Turn % turn to lock it in place.
Step 3: (Inflate the slide)
- Using an electric inflator or pump, inflate the main (1) chamber first until firm. You can toggle the valve by pressing the middle button to open/close the valve.
Close the valve by screwing the cap back on.
- Inflate one side rail until firm (2),
- Repeat for the other chambers (3).
NOTE: For Minima slide, the side safety rails are part of the slide and
they will inflate with the slide.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVER-INFLATE
NOTE: Release a little air when the weather becomes hot. If you’re inflating the water slide in the morning while the air is still cool, remember that the internal air pressure may expand later in the afternoon. Prevent the build-up of unwanted air pressure by releasing some of the air later in the day.
Note: Steps 4 and 5 are not applicable for the Pontoon slide.
Step 4: (Fill the stepping pad (4) with 30-50L of water then inflate it)
Using the water hose adapter which can be found in the repair kit, fill the
stepping pad with water (30-50L) to secure the slide and prevent it from
moving.
After you put 30-50L of water, remove the hose adapter and start inflating the
stepping pad until firm.
Note: Minima slide stepping pad only requires water.
Step 5: (Anchor the slide to the stepping pad) Use the 304 stainless steel connectors to connect the slide and stepping pad. The connectors can be found in the repair kit.
Note: The stainless steel connectors are made from 304 grade material, which is resistant to rust under normal conditions. However, for pools located near the beach, itis necessary to clean and wash the connectors regularly to prevent corrosion.
Note: The Mikros and Megalo slides, additional D rings are available at the front bottom of the slide. In extremely windy conditions, use the D-rings at the front bottom of the slide to secure it to an anchor bag or point for stabilization. Otherwise, their use is not necessary.
Care and Maintenance:
Crocpad slides come with a safety relief valve to protect the slide from over
inflation. Saying that, we highly recommend to protect your slide from over
inflation which could be caused by the sun or pump.
The main thing you need to be concerned about with your inflatable slide is
the relationship with the sun is over inflation. Over inflation can damage or
make a dramatic change in the form or appearance of the slide.
When you blow up an inflatable slide, you fill it with warm air via the electric pump. The air during the day gains kinetic energy from the sun, expands, and causes your inflatable to become stiff.
How do you protect your slide from the sun?
-
The best practice is to deflate the slide (including the stepping pad) and store it in a shady area or room. You can also disconnect the slide from the pad and simply move it to a shady area.
-
If you would like to keep the slide outdoors for a few days, please make sure you deflate it enough to avoid any heatwave damage or a dramatic change in the form or appearance of the slide.
-
Release a little air when the weather becomes hot. If you’re inflating the water slide in the morning while the air is still cool, remember that the internal air pressure may expand later in the afternoon.
Prevent the buildup of unwanted air pressure by releasing some of the air later in the day. -
When it is not used, please make sure you deflate it enough to avoid the slide expanding from the heat.
-
The stainless steel connectors are made from 304 grade material, which is resistant to rust under normal conditions. However, for pools located near the beach, itis necessary to clean and wash the connectors regularly to prevent corrosion.
-
The Mikros and Megalo slides, additional D rings are available at the front bottom of the slide. In extremely windy conditions, use the D-rings at the front bottom of the slide to secure it to an anchor bag or point for stabilization. Otherwise, their use is not necessary.
Please note: heatwave and over inflation damages will not be covered under our warranty.
Cleaning and Storage:
Clean the surfaces with mild soap and water to stay clean and only store when
completely dry.
The inflatable water slides only need a wash with mild soap and water to stay
clean. Avoid using oil-based or chlorinated solutions on the surface.
-
Clean the surfaces with mild soap and water. Wipe off with a towel and let it dry before you put it in the storage bag.
-
Empty the water from the stepping pad using the special hose adapter.
- Connect the hose adapter (which comes with the slide)
- Once the adapter is plugged in, the valve will be fully open, allowing water to flow out easily. Lift up the pad so the water comes out.
-
After making sure there are no more water inside the stepping pad, deflate the Slide and Stepping pad using the electric pump “deflate mode”.
-
Put the slide, pad, pump, hose adapter and the repair kit all in the storage bag.
IMPORTANT: Make sure nothing sharp or hard object sits on the slide/pad. -
Storeitina cool, dry place, away from fire and sharp objects.
