Troubleshooting
The ball feels too soft after a few days
It is normal for exercise balls to lose a small amount of air; use the included pump to top it up to the recommended 55cm size.
Difficulty inserting the stopper plug
Ensure the ball is fully inflated to the correct pressure so the plug can be seated firmly, or use the removal tool to clear any obstructions.
Ball slides on smooth surfaces
Ensure the anti-slip lines are clean and free of dust; use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the surface to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your gym ball, use the provided hand pump to inflate it until it reaches the 55cm diameter. Use the included tape measure during inflation to ensure you do not over-inflate the ball, which could compromise its structural integrity. Once inflated, insert the stopper plug securely.
For care, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed; avoid using harsh chemicals that might degrade the PVC. Keep the ball away from sharp objects or rough surfaces that could cause punctures. If you need to store the ball, ensure it is kept in a temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight, which can cause the material to become brittle over time.
