General Safety
•
Always operate this tire inflator in an open and well-ventilated area and
not inside a confined area, such as a garage. Doing so may lead to bodily
harm or asphyxiation resulting in death.
•
Do not leave the inflator unattended while the unit is running.
•
Wear eye protection during the inflation process. Never exceed the
recommended pressure for any inflatable object. Do not over inflate
objects as objects may rupture/explode causing serious injury and/or
property damage.
•
The air hose connector must be properly connected to secure the
inflation accessories. Use extreme caution when using inflation
accessories.
•
Always put the car in park; set the emergency brake; and "chock" the
wheels before using the inflator as personal injury and/or property
damage may occur.
•
Tire inflation should only be done safely away from the roadway, with
use of triangles or flares, and in compliance with the vehicle's operating
manual.
•
Always use a separate pressure gauge to check the actual pressure in
tires and in low pressure inflatable objects.
•
Inflator must cool for 20 minutes after 20 minutes of continuous
operation. The inflator is not designed to operate continuously for more
than 20 minutes. Exceeding recommended run-time or not allowing for
adequate cooling will cause inflator to overheat and could damage or
destroy inflator.
•
When using inflator on high pressure tires, such as those used on large
trucks, trailers or tractors, tire inflation must be executed in stages--NOT
exceeding the 20 minutes of run-time and NOT omitting the 20 minutes
of cooling required for proper use of this inflator.
•
Make sure the air hose connector is properly connected to the valve
stem. Failure to properly connect the air hose will result in slower
inflation and/or no air getting to the tire.
•
Inflator will get hot to the touch and may cause serious injury--do not
hold or touch while operating. Keep away from flammable materials.
