Additional Safety Precautions - BorMann BAP1200 Manual

6.It is strongly recommended that you keep the vehicle's engine running while using the air compressor to prevent discharge
of your vehicle's battery. This means you should ONLY OPERATE THE AIR COMPRESSOR IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA.
Compressor performance is also enhanced when operating air compressor with vehicle engine running.
TYRE INFLATING & DEFLATION
IMPORTANT: Before attaching the air compressors power cord to the power source, check to make sure that the on/off
switch of your air compressor is in the off position. Attach the positive battery clamp (Red) to the positive terminal of the
battery (available for specific models). Always keep your vehicles engine running while operating the air compressor to avoid
draining your vehicles engine running while operating the air compressor to avoid draining your vehicles battery.
IMPORTANT: Your air compressor is moisture and dust resistant. The air compressor is equipped with a sand tray so that you
can place the compressor on soft sand while running the air compressor. NEVER expose compressor to water while running
the compressor.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the air compressor sits upright while operating air compressor. DO NOT operate the air compressor
if the compressor is not sitting upright. Avoid pulling on the compressor, move the compressor to the same side of the vehicle
as the tyre to be inflated.
IMPORTANT: Always make sure the air compressors power cord is uncoiled and fully extended when using your air
compressor to avoid overheating of the power cord.
IN-LINE DEFLATOR / INFLATOR HOSE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This air compressor comes with heavy duty heat resistant leader hose with quick connect stud. Your in-line deflator is
supplied with an extension spiral hose with quick-release coupling (included in specific models). Simply attach this multi
function extension coil hose to the leader hose and you are ready to inflate tyres. The in line deflator/inflator hose can be
used for both airing up and airing down. Please familiarize yourself with the following different functions of the versatile air
tool.
A. TYRE INFLATION
1. . Attach quick connect coupler to air compressor
2. . Screw tyre chuck onto valve stem
3. . Check to make sure the deflator collar lock is disengaged
4. Turn air compressor switch on to begin inflation. When desired pressure is reached, turn off the air compressor
B. HANDS FREE CONTINUOUS AIR DOWN
1. . Screw tyre chuck onto tyre valve stem
2. . Push deflator collar toward tyre valve stem and turn deflator collar clockwise to engage lock. When desired pressure is
reached, turn deflator collar counter clockwise to disengage lock
C. INTERMITTENT DEFLATION
1. . The intermittent deflation function offers fast downward pressure adjustments
2. . With the chuck attached to the tyre valve stem, push deflator collar toward tyre valve stem to decrease the tyre pressure
3. . Release deflator collar to halt deflation

Additional Safety Precautions

1. . Always inflate to tyre pressures recommended by the manufacturer. Exercise extreme caution when driving with aired down
tyres.
Re-inflate tyres before high speed roadway travel
2. . Never exceed 20MPH when driving partially inflated tyres.
3. . Never make sharp turns while driving with reduced tyre pressure.
4. . Re-inflate tyres before high speed travelling onto roadways.
5. . Use heat resistant, minimum 200PSI rated working pressure extension hose. DO NOT use after-market hoses with less
than 200PSI working pressure. Some after-market hoses may not be suitable for use with this air compressor due to
heat and pressure typically generated by this type of air compressor.
6. . Use of a close ended tyre chuck will cause excessive pressure build up if tyre chuck is not attached to tyre valve stem while
air compressor is in operation. Always use an open ended tyre chuck such as the tyre chuck equipped on the deflator/inflator
coil hose for tyre inflation.
