How To inflate the Air Roller

Step 1) In order to inflate the Air Roller it is recommended that you use a petrol blower

Step  4) When the Air Roller is near full capacity, re position the blower to outside of the valve so that the Air Roller can be completely filled with air.

Step  5) Moving the blower to the valve entrance of the Air Roller prevents it from vibrating and losing air.
