WARNING!
Hydrofoiling in any kind of water sports is inherently a dangerous activity that can
result in serious injury or death to the user or people in the proximity of the user, with
or without a Levitaz product. These risks include drowning or being hit by the product
if the user loses control of it. The product may increase the risk of some injuries to
users or bystanders by adding additional structure to the board that may strike users
or bystanders; by increasing the speed at which the board can be operated, or by
changing the manner in which an out-of-control board reacts as it contacts water or
ground during an out-of-control situation. The user of this product should understand
that the use and participation in the sport and any foiling activity could cause injury or
death to you and/or others around you.

4 HOW TO SET UP YOUR BOOM AIR
Please note that the foil system is sold seperatly. For foil assembly please see the Levi-
taz Hydrofoil Manual online at levitaz.com.
Unpack your bag and unfold the board completely on a at surface and
make sure that no sharp objects come under the board.
Open the valve cover and check that the valve is in the closed position
(The pin is on the outside). The position can be changed by pressing in and
turning.
Connect the pump with a twist to the valve and turn it clockwise for a safe
connection.
Inate the board (ideally x the pump with both feet). If pumping gets too
exhausting switch from double to single stroke action.
Ideal pressure: 10-15 PSI
Close the valve cover.
NOTICE!
The manometer needle only starts to move from
one certain pumping work and when a certain pres-
sure is achieved.
NOTICE!
Do not inate the board with more than the recom-
mended 15 PSI pressure. This may cause serious
damage to the product and will render your warranty
void.
