10. MAINTENANCE/REPLACEMENT PARTS
For replacement parts (batteries, DC power adapters, AC charging adapters, cables,
etc.), contact Vector technical support: (954) 584-4446 or toll free (866) 584-5504.
Periodically, cables, hose, nozzles, and connectors should be inspected for damage,
corrosion, dust and dirt. If surfaces are dirty, they can be wiped clean with a cloth
moistened with water and a drop of detergent. Battery pack contacts can be wiped
clean with a dry cloth.
11. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
The battery in the battery pack should be replaced with a new one when the operating
capacity is reduced to about one half or the ability to inflate one and one half
average sized automobile tires. Make sure that the battery is fully charged before
determining that the battery pack should be replaced. Contact Vector technical
support and ask for part VEC194. This battery pack is also used with other Vector
products that include portable inflators and spotlights. For more details, please contact
our technical support department toll free (866) 584-5504.
