Operating instructions
The 12V Air Compressor has been engineered to service even the largest tyres used on trucks, vans, 4X4's
etc., but will equally as well on passenger cars.
Please read the entire instruction manual before use and retain for future reference.
IMPORTANT Your battery may not be at full strength. It is essential therefore that you keep your engine
running when operating the compressor. This will also shorten inflation time. Do not do this in a closed
garage due to the fumes circulating in a confined space.
1. Safety - Warning! Never leave the compressor unattended whilst it is in operation.
The compressor is not to be used for long period otherwise it may overheat. Using the compressor for several
minutes at a time should assist in tyre inflation. If a prolonged period is required then switch off the
compressor and allow to cool for several minutes then resume. For higher pressures (pressure over 5 bar),
let the compressor rest after 10 minutes of continuous use. If the compressor overheats, switch it off and
let it cool for 30 minutes before you start it again.
Tyres are marked with their maximum pressure in psi or bar – always refer to the manufacturers guide on tyre
pressure , never exceed the stated psi/bar
NOTE: The tyre will not expand at the same rate during the final phase of inflation as it does at the beginning
of this process. This is due to the fact that air flow into the tyre from compressor decreases as the required
tyre pressure is reached. Check with tyre pressure gauge for proper inflation.
INFLATION TIME Inflation time will vary depending on the article inflated and the pressure required.
