USING THE INFLATION HOSE WITH THUMB-
LOCK CONNECTOR
Inflating tires:
See Figures 8 - 11.
Make sure the ball-valve at the base of the inflation
hose is in the
OFF
position (vertical to the hose) (Fig.
8).
With the thumb-lock connector lever in the open
position (Fig. 9), place connector over the tire stem and
fold the lever over (A) until the connector locks securely
on the tire stem (Fig. 10).
Ensure the compressor is plugged-in and switch to the
“
ON
” position.
Open the ball-valve at the base of the inflation hose
to begin inflating (Fig. 11). You may adjust air flow by
turning the ball valve between 0 – 90 degrees.
Monitor inflation pressure using a tire pressure gauge
until the required pressure is achieved (be sure not to
exceed the tire manufactures maximum tire pressure).
Turn ball-valve to the “closed” position (Fig. 8) when
inflation is complete.
