OPERATION
Tires
1. Before inflating the tire, review
all warnings listed in the GENERAL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS section of this
operating manual.
2. Remove valve stem cap.
3. Turn the air hose connector onto the
valve stem in a clockwise direction
until snug (See Figure 2).
4. Plug power cord into 12-volt DC
power outlet.
For use with 12-volt DC power outlets rated 15 amps
or higher. Do not use with older 8 amp cigarette
lighter receptacles or fuse will blow and inflator will not work.
5. Turn power switch on.
6. Stop inflation when the proper pressure has been reached.
Recommended tire inflation pressure for the vehicle can typically be
found in the vehicle’s owner’s manual or on the driver’s side door jamb.
7. Do not over inflate tires as tires may rupture/explode causing serious
injury and/or property damage.
8. Tire inflation should only be done in a safe area, well off roadway and
away from traffic. Use reflective warning triangles and/or safety flares
to alert other drivers of roadside emergency. Always follow the tire
inflation safety advice and procedures noted in the vehicle’s operating
manual.
Inflatables
1. To use the inflation accessories, screw appropriate inflation accessory
into the air hose connector until snug.
2. Insert the inflation accessory into the inflatable object (tire, football raft,
etc.) and turn on the inflator.
3. When the object is firm, switch the inflator off. Do not over inflate
objects as objects may rupture/explode causing serious injury and/or
property damage.
Fuse Replacement
Never replace a blown fuse with a fuse having a
higher rating. Using a higher rated fuse will transmit
too much current to the inflator’s wiring causing it to overheat, melt or,
possibly, catch fire.
1. Unscrew end of plug counter-clockwise to remove fuse.
2. If fuse is blown, replace with a new 15-amp fuse. Always replace a blown
fuse with the same size fuse.
3. Reassemble plug. Do not over-tighten.
