OPERATION
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with this product to make you
careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not
recommended by the manufacturer of this inflator. The
use of attachments or accessories not recommended
can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not leave items to be inflated unattended while in-
flator is in use. These items can burst and could cause
serious injury.
CAUTION:
The inflator is not designed for continuous use. For every
ten minutes of inflator use, ten minutes of cool down
time are required.
WARNING:
Since the pressure gauge is not calibrated, and is
therefore not binding for exact values, tire pressure
must be checked using a reliable measuring device
before driving a vehicle with tires inflated using the
inflator. Driving a vehicle with improperly inflated tires
could result in serious injury.
CAUTION:
The inflator is capable of inflating to 150 PSI, 10.34 BAR,
or 10.55 Kg/Cm
2 . To avoid over inflation, carefully follow
instructions on items to be inflated. To avoid product
damage, never exceed recommended pressures.
APPLICATIONS
You may use this inflator for the purpose listed below:

Inflating high pressure items like motorcycle, car, and
bicycle tires
NOTE: The inflator is not designed for commercial application.
POWERING THE INFLATOR

Turn inflator off and connect the unit to a 12 V DC power
supply using the 12 V adaptor.
NOTE: The inflator will not function unless connected to a
12 V DC power source.
NOTE: Powering the unit using a vehicle’s 12 V receptacle
when the engine is not running will drain the vehicle’s battery.
HIGH PRESSURE AIR HOSE
See Figure 3, page 10.
The high pressure air hose is used for inflating high pressure
items like motorcycle, car, and bicycle tires.

INFLATING WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE AIR
HOSE
See Figure 6, page 11.
The air chuck on the high pressure air hose can be used
without adaptors to inflate tires or with any application that
has a valve stem that fits the air chuck opening.

Turn the inflator off.
 Position air chuck clamp in the unlock position
perpendicular to the high pressure air hose.
 Place air chuck on valve stem.
 Push air chuck down so that the threaded section of the
valve stem is inside the air chuck.
 Clamp the end of the air chuck down onto the valve
stem by pressing air chuck clamp down until it stops or
is parallel with the high pressure air hose.
 Turn on the inflator and inflate item to desired pressure.
To determine air pressure using the pressure gauge, refer
to instructions in the
Using the Pressure Gauge section
later in the manual.
