Troubleshooting
The ball feels too hard or bounces unpredictably
Check the inflation pressure; if it is over-inflated, release air gradually using a pump needle until it meets the recommended pressure.
The ball loses air quickly
Inspect the valve for debris or damage. If the valve is clear, the bladder may have a puncture that requires professional repair or replacement of the ball.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Puma Orbita 5 lasts as long as possible, always use a ball pump with a needle lubricated with a small amount of silicone oil or water to avoid damaging the valve. Inflate the ball to the manufacturer's recommended pressure, typically found near the valve. Avoid leaving the ball in extreme temperatures, such as inside a hot car trunk, as this can degrade the materials. After training on wet pitches, wipe the ball down with a dry cloth and store it in a cool, ventilated area rather than in a plastic bag, which can trap moisture and promote mildew.
