IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. For more information: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Work Area Safety

  • Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
  • Do not operate inflator in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inflator create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
  • Keep children and bystanders away while operating an inflator. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

  • Inflator plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) inflator. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
  • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
  • Do not expose inflator to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an inflator will increase the risk of electric shock.
  • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the inflator. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
  • When operating an inflator outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

  • Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating an inflator. Do not use an inflator while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating inflator may result in serious personal injury.
  • Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
  • Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying inflator with your finger on the switch or energizing inflator that have the switch on invites accidents.
  • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the inflator in unexpected situations.
  • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Inflator Use and Care

  • Do not force the inflator. Use the correct inflator for your application. The correct inflator will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
  • Do not use the inflator if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any inflator that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
  • Disconnect the plug and turn it off from the power source from the inflator before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing inflator. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the inflator accidentally.
  • Store idle inflator out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the inflator or these instructions to operate the inflator. Inflator are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
  • Maintain inflator. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the inflator operation. If damaged, have the inflator repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained inflator.

Battery Tool Use and Care

  • Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
  • Use inflator only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
  • When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
  • Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Service

Have the inflator serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the inflator is maintained.

WARNING: The compressed air from your inflator is not safe for breathing. Never inhale air from your inflator or from a breathing device connected to the inflator.

  • Too much air pressure causes a hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer's maximum pressure rating for objects being inflated.
  • Do not leave inflator running unattended. It could burst tires or other items.
  • Use a tire gauge to check the tires' pressure before each use and while inflating tires; see the tire sidewall and the vehicle manual for the correct tire pressure.
  • Do not modify or attempt to repair. Never drill into, weld, or make any modifications to the inflator or its attachments.
  • Operate only with the accessories included or air handling parts acceptable for not less than 150 psi. The use of any accessory not recommended for use with this tool could be hazardous.
  • Never "horseplay." High pressure air is dangerous. Don't direct air-flow at yourself or others.

WARNING: Inflator can become hot during use. Allow inflator to cool 30 minutes before storing away.

WARNING: Your air inflator is powered by electricity. Like any other electrically powered device, if it is not used properly it may cause electric shock.

WARNING: Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a inflator while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating inflator may result in serious personal injury.

Always wear certified safety equipment: ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) with side shields when using the inflator.

Never point any nozzle or sprayer toward any part of the body or at other people or animals.

TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING: Risk of Unsafe Operation. Unit cycles automatically when power is on. Before servicing unit disconnect electrical supply to the mini inflator, and allow the mini inflator to cool.

PROBLEM CORRECTION
The mini inflator does not turn on. 1. Check whether the air hose is removed from its compartment. The mini inflator can be turned on only when the air hose is removed from its compartment.
2. Fully charge the mini inflator and turn it on.
The inflation speed is slow. 1. Check whether the battery power is sufficient.
2. Check whether the air hose is leaking.
3. Check whether both ends of the air hose are securely connected.
4. Check whether the inflated item is leaking.
The mini inflator turns on but does not inflate. 1. Check whether the battery power is sufficient.
2. Check whether the current air pressure is higher than the preset value.
The preset pressure cannot be increased or decreased. Make sure the air compressor is set to the correct inflation mode. Manual mode allows you to adjust the preset value within a range of 3-150 psi.
The mini inflator inflates normally but the displayed pressure is zero. The pressure of low-pressure inflatables including balloons is too low to measure.
The mini inflator has already turned off after connecting the air hose to a valve. Press and hold the start/stop button to turn the mini inflator on again.
The air leaks out when connecting the air hose. Make sure the air hose is securely connected.
