Place your index finger like in the image above and use your thumbs to push the rod into the Rubber clips. Keep them an inch or 2 on either side for more leverage.

IMPORTANT!!!!!!

The clips will be very hard initially on the first use. Please allow the tube and clips to warm up in the sun for a few minutes before trying to attach for the first time. After they warm up and stretch out for the first time they will become much easier to clip.

The Boston Valve can be inflated with an air pump or manually by blowing into the one way valve.
