INSTALLATION OF THE INFLATION TUBE(S)
Some configurations of the J3 Cushion with the AIR insert come
with the inflation tube(s) un-installed. If this is the case, you will
have received the following parts:
AIR insert with a tube
coupler at the end of the
inserts truncated inflation
tube
A length of tube with one
end terminated by an
inflation valve, the other
end open. A second tube
will be included if the AIR
insert was a dual chamber
insert. You can identify
if the insert is single or dual chamber by the truncated
inflation tubes at the rear of the insert. A coupling connector
has already been installed in the truncated inflation tubes.
To install the inflation tube(s)
1. Install the AIR insert into the J3 foam base as outlined in
the instructions below.
2. Measure the length of
inflation tube required for
your specific cushion size.
Do this by measuring the
distance (l) from the front
edge of the truncated
inflation tube on the insert,
to 1/2" (13mm) from the
front edge of the cushion.
You can use a flexible
tape measure or string to take this measurement. (Fig. 1)
3. On the length of inflation tube, measure the distance (l)
from the front of the valve to a location on the inflation
tube that matches the
measurement taken in
step 2. (Fig. 2)
4. Cut the length of inflation
tube as measured using
scissors.
5. Attach the cut length
of inflation tube to the
coupling connector. Then
follow the installation
instructions Steps 2-6
following.

INSTALLATION OF AIR INSERT INTO FOAM
CUSHION
1. With the cover removed
from the J3 foam base,
install the AIR insert into
the Opti-Well. Ensure that
the AIR insert is aligned
with the well and that
the inflation tubes are to
the rear of the cushion.
Ensure that the Velcro
attached to the AIR
insert is aligned with the
matching Velcro adhered to the foam base. If a PLA insert
is being used, see the J3 Owner's Manual for instructions
on its installation. (Fig. 3)
2. With the AIR insert installed, the inflation tube(s) need to
be secured to the foam
base. Your AIR insert
may have one or two
inflation tubes depending
1
if it is a single chamber
insert or a dual chamber
insert. Two channels on
the foam base are used
to locate the inflation
tube(s). (Fig. 4)
3. Begin by securing the
inflation tube(s) in the channel in the rear of the foam
cushion, then threading it through the hole which joins the
back channel to the side
channel. Once through,
secure the remainder of
the inflation tube to the
side channel. (Fig. 5)
4. If the AIR insert is dual
2
chambered, do the same
for the second inflation
tube.
5. Re-install the cover by
Cut
sliding the cover over
the foam assembly. It is best to secure the inflation valve
in place with your hand as you slide the cover over the
assembly with your other hand.
6. Insert the valve through the side slot located in the cover
behind the JAY logo. The valve is intended to protrude
through the slot and be secured by the side band on the J3
Cushion cover. (Fig. 6)
