TO INSTALL/REMOVE BATTERY PACK
See Figure 1, page 9.
To install:
 Place the battery pack in the tool. Align the raised rib on
the battery pack with groove in the battery port.
 Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack
snap in place and that the battery pack is secured in the
tool before beginning operation.
To remove:
 Depress the latches on both sides of the battery pack to
release the battery pack and remove it from the tool.
For complete charging instructions, see the operator's
manuals for your battery pack and charger.
AIR HOSE AND ACCESSORY STORAGE
See Figures 2 - 3, page 9.
When the inflator is not in use, wrap the hose around the unit
and hold in place using the hose storage clip.
When not in use, adaptors and needles provided with the
inflator can be placed in the storage area on the base of
the tool.
DIGITAL GAUGE
See Figure 4, page 10.
The digital gauge is multifunctional, serving as a pressure
gauge and monitoring the amount of pressure being applied
to the item being inflated. Pressure is indicated by PSI.
 Press the power button to turn on the digital gauge.
 Press and hold the power button to deactivate the display.
NOTE: The digital gauge will automatically shut off when
not in use for five minutes.
USING THE INFLATOR
See Figures 4 - 6, page 10.
The air chuck on the 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.
NOTE: When inflating items of 10 PSI or less, inflate in short
bursts and check after each burst by feel or with a calibrated
measuring device to determine accurate pressure.
 Install the battery pack.
 Press the power button to turn on the digital gauge.
 Position air chuck clamp in the unlock position
perpendicular to the air hose.
OPERATION
 Place the air chuck on the valve stem.
 Push the 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.
NOTE: The current air pressure inside the item will be
shown on the display.
WARNING:
Improperly attached hoses or accessories can become
detached under pressure and cause serious injury.
Possible air leaks can cause faulty pressure readings.
Make sure all connections are tightly secured.
 Press the ( + ) or ( – ) button to select the needed air
pressure. Press and hold the ( + ) or ( – ) button to increase
or decrease the air pressure in 5 PSI increments.
 Press the start/stop button to start inflating.
NOTE: The pressure readout on the gauge while inflating
is a measurement of the fluctuating pressure between
the item and the high pressure hose. To get an accurate
reading, stop inflating and follow above instructions for
reading the air pressure.
 The gauge will indicate the pressure in PSI. When the
desired pressure is reached, press the start/stop button
to stop inflating and disconnect the inflator.
NOTE: Maximum PSI for this unit is 160 PSI.
NOTICE:
Always leave the hose free of obstructions when the
tool is not in use. Overheating could occur if the hose
is blocked.
 Press and hold the power button to deactivate the display.
INFLATING MANUALLY
 Connect the air hose to item to be inflated.
 Press the power button to turn on the digital gauge.
 Press and hold start/stop button until desired pressure
is reached.
 Press and hold the power button to deactivate the display.
