INFLATING WITH THE AIR HOSE
See Figure 4, page i.
The air chuck on the air hose can be used without adap-
tors to inflate tires or with any item with a valve stem that
fits the air chuck opening.
 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 air hose.
INFLATING WITH THE AIR HOSE AND ADAPTORS
See Figure 5, page i.
The air hose can be used with the provided adaptors to
inflate a variety of items.
 Insert adaptor into air chuck and push air chuck clamp
down until it locks into place.
 To remove, lift air chuck clamp and remove adaptor
from air chuck.
ADAPTOR FUNCTIONS
See Figures 6 - 9, page i -
The Schrader valve tool can be used to remove valve
cores for quick deflation.
The tapered adaptor can be used on smaller air valves to
inflate items like floats and children's toys, which usually
require the user to inflate them by blowing air into them.
The sport ball needle can be used to inflate any type of
sports ball or any other item that requires a sport ball
needle.
The Presta valve adaptor can be used for Presta valve
stems as shown. Before inflating a tire with a Presta valve,
loosen the locking nut to inflate. Once inflation is com-
plete, tighten the locking nut to seal the tire valve.
To use the Presta valve adaptor:
 Loosen Presta valve locking nut.
 Thread Presta valve adaptor onto valve stem with
larger open end toward wheel.
 Clamp the end of the air chuck down onto the Presta
valve adaptor by pressing air chuck clamp down until it
locks into place.
 After inflation, (See switch trigger) remove air chuck
and tighten locking nut.
HIGH VOLUME ADAPTOR
See Figures 9, page ii.
The high volume adaptor can be useful in inflating small,
low pressure items such as beach balls and children's
toys.
OPERATION
ii.
In order to use the high volume adaptor, you must first
install the main adaptor onto the air chuck, and then fit the
appropriate adaptor onto the main adaptor.
To attach adaptors to air hose:
 Insert main adaptor into air chuck and push air chuck
clamp down until it locks into place.
 Attach desired adaptor.
 To remove, lift air chuck clamp up and remove
adaptor(s) from air chuck.
SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 10, page
To turn the handheld inflator ON, depress and hold the
switch trigger. To turn it OFF, release the switch trigger.
NOTE: When inflating items of 10 psi, .69 BAR, .70 kg/cm
or less, inflate in short bursts and check after each burst
by feel or with a calibrated measuring device to determine
accurate pressure.
LOCK-ON BUTTON
See Figure 10, page ii.
The handheld inflator is equipped with a lock-on feature,
which is convenient for continuous inflating for extended
periods of time. The lock-on button is located below the
switch trigger. To lock-on:
 Depress the switch trigger.
 Push the lock-on button up.
 Release the switch trigger and the handheld inflator will
continue running.
 To release the lock, push the lock-on button down.
If the lock-on feature is engaged during use and the
handheld inflator becomes disconnected from the power
supply, disengage the lock-on feature immediately.
NOTE: The lock-on feature only works for pressures
up to 40 psi, 2.75 BAR, and 2.80 kg/cm
air compressor is designed to automatically stop at 40
psi 2.75 BAR, or 2.80 kg/cm
operations.
ADAPTOR STORAGE
See Figure 11, page ii.
When not in use, adaptors provided
come with the high volume adaptor) can be placed in the storage area located on the base.
