Inflator Operation; Inflating Tires; Inflating Sports Balls Or Other High Pressure Small Inflatables - Bell BellAire 3000 Instructions For Use Manual

TO INFLATE TIRES:
1. Remove and unwind 12 Volt power cord (see #13 in figure 1, page 3) from the stor-
age compartment. See #10 in figure 1.
2. Make certain the inflator power switch is in the off position. See #1 in figure 1.
3. Set emergency brake and start vehicle engine. See "Warning: Vehicle Exhaust Without
Proper Ventilation", page 4.
4. Plug inflator lighter plug into vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
5. Check manufacturer's recommended tire pressure specifications indicated on the tire
sidewall.
6. Locate the dial pressure gauge (see #3 in figure 1) and turn the pre-set dial until the
auto shut-off indicator/stop is set to the desired shut-off pressure. See figure 2, page
3. The pre-set inflation feature will automatically stop inflating once a predetermined
pressure has been reached.
7. Unwind the air hose from its storage channel and attach air hose nozzle to vehicle tire
valve stem by threading the nozzle onto the stem clockwise until secure. See #6 in
figure 1. Do not turn inflator on.
NOTE: When the nozzle is connected correctly, wait 5-7 seconds and the gauge will
indicate the current tire pressure. Always follow the manufacturer's inflation pressure rec-
ommendations to avoid over-inflation. If the tire is over-inflated, press the deflation bleeder
valve button to release air until pressure gauge indicates the correct pressure. See #8 in
figure 1.
The pressure gauge on the inflator is for reference only and is therefore not binding for
exact values. While inflating, the gauge is a measurement of the fluctuating pressure
between the tire and the high pressure hose. To reduce the risk of over-inflation, use a reli-
able pressure gauge periodically during inflation before driving a vehicle inflated with the
inflator.
8. Turn on inflator power switch to the on position. See #1 in figure 1. The BellAire™
3000 will now inflate your tire to the pre-set pressure level and then shut off automati-
cally. After pre-set auto shut-off has taken place, turn inflator power switch to the off
position. See #1 in figure 1.
9. To stop inflator before reaching the pre-set auto shut-off pressure, turn inflator power
switch to the off position. See #1 in figure 1.
10. Remove air hose nozzle from vehicle tire valve stem by turning air hose nozzle counter-
clockwise and return air hose to its built-in storage location on inflator.
11. Unplug inflator from vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket and store cord in its stor-
age compartment.
12. Turn off vehicle.
TO INFLATE SPORTS BALLS AND OTHER HIGH PRESSURE SMALL INFLATABLES:
1. Remove and unwind 12 Volt power cord (see #13 in figure 1, page 3) from the stor-
age compartment. See #10 in figure 1.
2. Unwind air hose from its storage channel (see #6 in figure 1) and select one of the
small adapter needles provided in the storage compartment. See figure 3, page 3.
3. Attach the adapter needle to the air hose nozzle by turning the adapter needle clock-
wise.
4. Check manufacturer's recommended pressure specifications for inflatable.
5. Locate the dial pressure gauge (see #3 in figure 1) and turn the pre-set dial until the
auto shut-off indicator/stop is set to the desired shut-off pressure. See figure 2, page
3. The pre-set inflation feature will automatically stop inflating once a predetermined
pressure has been reached.
6. Insert adapter needle into inflatable.
