2. Prova de moviment: Gently push the object to confirm it is floating on the air cushion and can be moved with minimal effort. If the object does not move freely, re-check platform placement and air hose connections.
3. Guide the Object: With the object floating, carefully guide it to its desired location. Use steady, controlled movements. For large or heavy objects, it is recommended to have a second person assist with guiding and stabilizing.
4. Consideracions de superfície: The air glider performs best on smooth, hard surfaces like concrete, tile, or hardwood. For carpeted or uneven surfaces, it may be necessary to lay down temporary hardboard or fiberboard runners to create a smooth path.
5. Girar: To turn the object, apply gentle pressure to one side while pushing forward. Avoid abrupt turns.
6. Deactivate Blower: Once the object is in its final position, turn off the blower unit. The air platforms will deflate, and the object will settle back onto the floor.
7. Remove Platforms: Carefully tilt the object again, if necessary, and remove the deflated platforms.
