Fender & Buoy Inflation Instructions (Cont.) Important: Always Lubricate the Inflation needle before inserting into a Standard Valve or Tri-Valve (black version) DO NOT insert a dry needle into a rubber valve. The resistance of a dry needle against the rubber can disturb the internal opening of the valve and potentially cause an air leak. The inflation needle should be lubricated using soapy water or a non-solvent based grease intended for O-rings or rubber seals.
