Mounting and Operation
Select the adapter best suited to the intended application:
- Valve adapter (13), e.g. for many bike valves.
- Ball needle adapter (14), e.g. for footballs.
- Volume adapter (12), for small beach items or sporting goods, e.g. beach balls.
For standard car tyre valves (sometimes also used on bikes), no adapter is required.
Press the locking mechanism of the storage compartment (15) inwards, open the lid (7) of the adapter storage compartment and remove the appropriate adapter.
If present, remove the valve cap on the item to be inflated.
Winding up and Unwinding the Pressure Hose (10) (see figure A):
- Unwind the pressure hose (10) by releasing it from the hose clamps (9).
- When winding up the pressure hose (10), ensure that it is held by the hose clamps (9).
Connecting the Air Pump to the Valve (see figure B):
- Valve adapter (13): Firstly, screw the adapter onto the valve. Then screw the adapter fully into the pressure hose (10).
- Ball needle adapter (14) and volume adapter (12): Firstly, screw the adapter fully into the pressure hose (10). Then tighten the pressure hose (10) with the adapter in the valve.
- If no adapter is required, tighten the pressure hose (10) on the valve.
The current pressure (bar/psi) in the connected item is shown on the pressure gauge (1).
Inflation:
- Press the lock-off button (6) to the left (see figure C).
- Press the on/off switch (5) to switch on the air pump and to start pumping. At the same time, the worklight (11) and the pressure gauge lighting are switched on.
Do not look into the worklight; it can blind you. - If the required pressure is displayed on the pressure gauge (1), release the on/off switch (5). The worklight (11) and pressure gauge lighting go out and the air pump is switched off.
- Once work is complete, lock the on/off switch by pressing the lock-off button (6) to the right (see figure C).
Note: When pumping for longer periods, stop pumping after approximately 5 minutes and leave the hose and metal parts of the adapter to cool for at least 5 minutes.
