Setting the target pressure value
Press the [M] button, and select the pressure value unit.
The pressure value unit is changed each time you press
the [M] button. You can select one of the three units:
PSI, BAR, or KPA.
To increase the target pressure value, press the [+] but-
ton. To decrease the target pressure value, press the [-]
button. You can set the target pressure value between
35 kPa (5 PSI) and 1,100 kPa (160 PSI).
Setting the inflation mode
Press the [M] button for 3 seconds. The inflation mode
is changed each time you press and hold the [M] button.
You can select one of the three modes as follows.
Mode Display
Ball
Low speed
High speed
NOTE: Be sure to select the ball mode when you
inflate a ball using a sport ball needle. If other mode is
selected, the inflation cannot be performed properly.
NOTE: Be sure to select the low speed mode when
you inflate an object using an English valve adapter. If
other mode is selected, the inflation cannot be per-
formed properly.
Lighting up the front lamp
When you turn on the tool by pressing the main power
switch, the lamp lights up. When you turn off the tool by
pressing the main power switch, the lamp goes out.

CAUTION:
Do not look in the light or see the
source of light directly.
NOTICE:
When the tool is overheated, the lamp
blinks. Turn the tool off and let the tool cool down
fully before operating the tool again.
NOTE: Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of
the lamp. Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or
it may lower the illumination.
Storing adapter
The adapters can be stored in the adapter holder of the
tool. Insert the sport ball needle into the Presta valve
adapter before attaching them to the adapter holder.

Using the English valve adapter
NOTICE:
Be sure to select the low speed mode
when you inflate an object using an English valve
adapter. If other mode is selected, the inflation can-
not be performed properly.
1. Insert the English valve adapter into the air chuck.
2. Attach the English valve adapter to the valve stem
while opening the English valve adapter.

3. Valve stem
3. Turn on the tool.
4. Inflate the tire by pulling the switch trigger while
checking the status of the tire.
NOTICE:
When using the English valve adapter,
the pressure gauge will not display an accurate
value due to characteristics of the valve. When
inflating a tire, do not use the value on the pres-
sure gauge, but inflate it by checking the status
of the tire.
If the tool stops before the tire reaches the
desired air pressure, adjust the pressure value,
and then inflate the tire again.
Using the Schrader valve adapter
1. Attach the air chuck to the valve stem.
► Fig.11: 1. Valve stem 2. Air chuck
2. Turn on the tool, and then set the pressure value
appropriate for the tire using the pressure gauge.
3. Keep pulling the switch trigger until the tool stops.
The tire is inflated with the specified pressure.
