Figure 18
After finishing with each section, be sure to securely close each valve cover.
Assembly
Once the lounger has been inflated, repeat the following steps on both sides of your Motorized Pool Lounger. Be sure to assemble it on a raised surface to prevent the motor assembly from being damaged.
First, take out the wrench pro­vided in the accessories kit as shown in Figure 19.
Figure 19
Use the wrench to unscrew the nut on the battery cover, as shown in Figure 20.
Figure 20
Next, assemble the battery cover with the nuts, bolts, and o­rings in place, as shown in Figure 21.
Figure 23
Finish assembling the battery
cover, as shown on Figure 24.
Figure 21
Place the nut onto the bolt and place them onto the battery com­partment hole, as shown in Figure 22.
Figure 22
Place an o-ring on the end of the bolt, as shown in Figure 23.

Match the direction of the “2” printed on the control arm and the battery compartment. Slide the control arm in through the bottom of the battery compart­ment, as shown in Figures 25 and 26.
Figure 25
Figure 26
Screw the large plastic hexa­gon nut onto the top of the bat­tery compartment to secure the control arm in place, as shown in Figure 27.
Figure 27
Install six D-cell batteries (not included) in the battery compart­ment, making sure to match the polarity (+ and -) with the dia­gram inside the battery compart­ment, as shown in Figure 28.
Figure 28
Carefully align the battery compartment cover by matching the “3” printed on both the cover and the battery compartment, as shown in Figure 29.
Figure 30
Insert the electrical connection shaft into the motor subassem­bly that encloses the propeller, as shown in Figure 31.
Figure 32
Insert the control arm sleeve into the holes located on the armrest, as shown in Figure 33.
Figure 34
From the bottom of the lounger, you can see the “1” printed on both sides of the con­trol arm and propeller, as shown in Figure 35.
Figure 29
Fasten the nuts with the wrench provided in the acces­sories kit. It is generally best to start at the two nuts directly across from the handle, then the two nuts on both sides of the handle, then the last remaining two, as shown in Figure 30.
Figure 31
Next, hold the lounger verti­cally as shown in Figure 32. This will make it easier to assemble.
10 11
Figure 33
Insert the control arm through the top of the control arm sleeve. Insert the electrical connection shaft through the bottom of the control arm sleeve, as shown in Figure 34.
Figure 35

Testing the Motorized Pool Lounger
After completing all of the previous assembly steps, press the button on the han­dle to test the propeller, as shown in Figure 38.
Figure 38
Using the Motorized Pool Lounger
Your Motorized Pool Lounger is perfect for your backyard pool. Because it contains two propellers on either side, it enables you to move in all directions.
12 13
Figure 39
To move, press the buttons on both handles. These buttons will operate your propellers.
To drive forward, turn both handles so they are facing forward and press the buttons.
To drive in reverse, turn both handles so they are facing backward and press the buttons.
To turn right, turn either handle to the right. The angle of your turn will depend on how much you turn the handles to the right.
To turn left, turn either handle to the left. The angle of your turn will depend on how much you turn the handles to the left.
To move laterally towards the right, turn both handles right and press both buttons.
To move laterally towards the left, turn both handles left and press both buttons.
To turn in a circle, face one propeller forward and the other backward and press the buttons.
Disassembly
To disassemble your Motorized Pool Lounger, please follow these instruc­tions.
First, unscrew the six hexagon screws from the battery cover. Remove the screws and the battery cover, as shown in Figure 40.
Figure 40
Remove the batteries, as
shown in Figure 41.
Figure 41
Unscrew the hexagon nut on the top of the control sleeve, as shown in Figure 42.
Figure 42
Squeeze the fastener locat­ed below the hexagon nut to unfasten the battery com-
partment. Lift it off.
On the underside of the Motorized Pool Lounger, squeeze the holes on the base of the control arm sleeve, as shown in Figure
43. This will release the fas­teners holding the control arm in place.
Figure 43
Once released, lift the control arm from the top of the control arm sleeve.
Remove the propeller and electrical connection shaft by sliding it out of the control arm sleeve, as shown in Figure 44.
Figure 44
Remove the control arm sleeve from the Motorized Pool Lounger by lifting it out from the top.
Open the valve cover to deflate the Motorized Pool Lounger, starting with the larger cavities, as shown in Figure 45.
Figure 45
Repairing the Motorized Pool Lounger
Rough surfaces may punc­ture the Motorized Pool Lounger. If the lounger gets punctured, use the glue and PVC from the restoration kit to repair the punctured sur­face.
14
15
Apply the glue on the damaged area and apply the supplementary PVC sheet.
Wait approximately one minute for the glue to dry after applying the PVC sheet before handling your Motorized Pool Lounger.
You should wait approxi­mately 24 hours before using the Motorized Pool Lounger in your pool again.

How to Use the Electric
Air Pump
The electric air pump is a high-volume, low-pressure pump, as shown in Figure
47. This is intended to inflate or deflate items, such as your Motorized Pool Lounger and air mattresses. To use your electric air pump, please follow these instructions.
To Inflate
Turn the ON/OFF switch to
OFF.
Plug the electrical cord into a wall socket.
Insert the correct adapter size onto the nozzle of the electric air pump. If you are using it for the Motorized Pool Lounger, you will need to use the medium size adapter.
Insert the tip of the adapter into the valve of the inflat-
Figure 47
able item and switch ON to begin inflation.
While inflating, be sure not to obstruct the valve. This may cause the pump to overheat.
When inflating large items, such as a king-size air mattress, the pump should fit directly into the valve of the inflatable item for fast infla­tion. Use the appropriate adapter for smaller valves.
To Deflate
To deflate an inflatable item, open the valves of the inflated item. You can either allow it to deflate on its own. If you want to expedite the deflation process, follow these instructions.
Turn the
ON/OFF switch to
OFF. Plug the electrical cord into a wall socket.
Insert the deflation port (located on the top of the electric air pump) into the valve of the inflatable item and switch
ON to begin de-
flation.
Figure 48 Figure 49
Special Care & Handling for the Electric Air Pump
Avoid rough handling, such as bumping or dropping.
Avoid moisture and extreme temperatures. For best
results, use between the temperatures of 39˚ F and 100˚ F (4˚ C and 38˚ C).
Clean using only a slightly damp cloth. Do not use
cleaners with chemical agents.

Warning for Electric Air Pump
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, consult an appliance repair-person. Do not attempt to force the plug into the wall outlet.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use if the
power cord appears damaged.
Never over-inflate an item. The pressure may cause the
item to burst.
Do not leave the pump unintended while it's turned on.
Do not use the pump in wet conditions.
Do not face the ports of the pump towards your face,
especially your eyes.
Do not insert fingers or other objects into the ports of the
pump at any time.
Do not place the pump on the ground when turned it. It
could suck in rocks and other small objects. This will break the pump.
Do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control
device.
• Do not leave the pump on for an extended period of time.
This may burn out the motor.
Keep out of reach of children.
