5. Observe pressure with the pressure gauge.
6. When desired pressure is reached, open thumb latch and remove
connector from valve stem.
7. Turn OFF Compressor Power Switch
IMPORTANT: Always leave the tire chuck thumb latch in the open
position when storing unit.
6.2 INFLATE OTHER ARTICLES (WITHOUT VALVE STEM)
Inflation of other than tires requires use of one of the nozzles (adapters). A
nozzle can be attached to the tire chuck or it can directly be connected to the
compressors outlet if the hose is removed.
A nozzle can be attached to the tire chuck. Open the nozzle hatch cover
and remove the required nozzle. Close the nozzle hatch cover. Place the tire
chuck over the nozzle fitting and secure by moving the chuck thumb latch so
it is parallel with the hose. Make sure the nozzle is clean and secure before
turning on the compressor. After use, release the nozzle from the chuck by
lifting the latch. Return the nozzle to the nozzle hatch.
A nozzle can also be directly attached to the Compressor Outlet if the hose
is not required.
1. Open the nozzle hatch cover and remove the required nozzle.
2. Remove the hose from the compressor outlet by loosening (counterclock
wise) the hose retaining ring and sliding out the ribbed brass fitting.
3. Close the nozzle hatch cover.
4. Insert the selected nozzle into the compressor outlet and secure it by
tightening the hose-retaining ring as above.
5. After using the compressor, remove and store the nozzle in the nozzle
hatch.
Refer to “Typical Inflation Times” for approximate pressure and time. Small
items like volleyballs, footballs, etc. inflate very rapidly.
6. Insert nozzle (e.g needle) into item to be inflated and inflate to
desired pressure.
7. Turn ON compressor switch - inflate to desired pressure or fullness.
