Is it possible to damage my inflatable by over-inflating?

Troubleshooting
Pump not inflating effectively.
Ensure the valve adaptor is securely attached to both the hose and the inflatable item. Check that the inflation/deflation switch is set to 'inflate'. Make sure there are no leaks in the hose connection or the inflatable itself. Try a different valve adaptor.
Hose connection feels loose.
Ensure you are using the correct valve adaptor size. Screw the hose firmly onto the adaptor and the inflatable valve. Check the adaptor and hose for any cracks or damage.
Pump is difficult to press down.
Check that the inflation/deflation switch is correctly set for the desired function. Ensure the valve on the inflatable is open and not obstructed. Sometimes, small debris can impede the mechanism; check for any blockages.
Air is escaping from the pump itself.
Inspect the bellows and seals of the pump for any visible damage or wear. Ensure the hose connection to the pump is secure.
