In order to use the high volume adaptor, you must first 
install the main adaptor onto the air chuck, and then fit the 
appropriate adaptor onto the main adaptor.
To attach adaptors to air hose: 
 

Insert main adaptor into air chuck and push air chuck 
clamp down until it locks into place.

 

Attach desired adaptor.

 

To remove, lift air chuck clamp up and remove 
adaptor(s) from air chuck.

To turn the handheld inflator 

ON, depress and hold the 

switch trigger. To turn it 

OFF, release the switch trigger.

NOTE: When inflating items of 10 psi, .69 BAR, .70 kg/cm

2

 

or less, inflate in short bursts and check after each burst 
by feel or with a calibrated measuring device to determine 
accurate pressure.

The handheld inflator is equipped with a lock-on feature, 
which is convenient for continuous inflating for extended 
periods of time. The lock-on button is located below the 
switch trigger. To lock-on:


  Depress the switch trigger.



  Push the lock-on button up. 



  Release the switch trigger and the handheld inflator will 

continue running.



  To release the lock, push the lock-on button down.

If the lock-on feature is engaged during use and the 
handheld inflator becomes disconnected from the power 
supply, disengage the lock-on feature immediately.
NOTE: The lock-on feature only works for pressures 
up to 40 psi, 2.75 BAR, and 2.80 kg/cm

2

. The handheld 

air compressor is designed to automatically stop at 40 
psi 2.75 BAR, or 2.80 kg/cm

2

 for all lock-on inflating 

operations. 

See Figure 11, page ii.
When not in use, adaptors provided 

(except those that 

come with the high volume adaptor) can be placed in the 
storage area located on the base.

The air chuck on the air hose can be used without adap-

tors to inflate tires or with any item with a valve stem that 

fits the air chuck opening. 
 

Place air chuck on valve stem.

 

Push air chuck down so that the threaded section of the 

valve stem is inside the air chuck.

 

Clamp the end of the air chuck down onto the valve 

stem by pressing air chuck clamp down until it stops or 

is parallel with the air hose.

The air hose can be used with the provided adaptors to 
inflate a variety of items. 


  Insert adaptor into air chuck and push air chuck clamp 

down until it locks into place.

 

To remove, lift air chuck clamp and remove adaptor 
from air chuck.

The Schrader valve tool can be used to remove valve 
cores for quick deflation. 
The tapered adaptor can be used on smaller air valves to 
inflate items like floats and children’s toys, which usually 
require the user to inflate them by blowing air into them.
The sport ball needle can be used to inflate any type of 
sports ball or any other item that requires a sport ball 
needle.
The Presta valve adaptor can be used for Presta valve 
stems as shown. Before inflating a tire with a Presta valve, 
loosen the locking nut to inflate. Once inflation is com-
plete, tighten the locking nut to seal the tire valve.
To use the Presta valve adaptor:
 

Loosen Presta valve locking nut.

 

Thread Presta valve adaptor onto valve stem with 
larger open end toward wheel.

 

Clamp the end of the air chuck down onto the Presta 
valve adaptor by pressing air chuck clamp down until it 
locks into place.

 

After inflation, (See 

switch trigger) remove air chuck 

and tighten locking nut.

The high volume adaptor can be useful in inflating small, 
low pressure items such as beach balls and children’s 
toys.
