IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPROPER OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THIS PRODUCT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE. READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS EQUIPMENT.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from lead-based paints crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, always wear MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using such tools.
When using air tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury.
This Inflator is designed to inflate car tires, bike tires, ATV tires, sports equipment, air mattresses, beach toys and other inflatables. Do not use for any purpose other than inflating. If you do so, bodily harm or personal injury can occur.
Caution, allow inflator to cool down 10 minutes after each 10 minutes of continuous operation.
After using, turn off power.
The Inflator is not a toy. Keep away from children at all times.
Do not carry Inflator by the air hose or power cord as damage may occur.
Do not leave the Inflator unattended while in operation.
Do not overinflate. Please follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the item you are inflating
Keep the Inflator away from flammable areas/liquids at all times.
Do not operate the Inflator in wet or damp areas.
Operate the Inflator only with the attachments that are included.
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
Household use only.
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, the grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman when the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or when in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it does not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

7. Unplug the power cord from 120 Volt outlet.
8. Allow unit to cool.
WARNING: Risk of Bursting.
Most sports balls with no initial air will fill in less than 10 seconds. Watch sports balls carefully while filling, do not overfill.
WARNING: Risk of Bursting. Too much air pressure causes a hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for objects being inflated.
Carefully follow instructions.
High Flow Inflator/Deflator
Adaptor
For larger inflatable items, you may wish to use the High Flow
Inflator/Deflator Adaptor as follows:
1. Connect the Quick-Connect Universal
Valve Adaptor to high flow inflator/deflator adaptor as shown.
2. Choose nozzle to be used to inflate or deflate. NOTE: The seal ring may be used with any of the nozzles to prevent air from leaking out of inflatables with very large air inlets. Insert nozzle thru seal ring as shown.
3. The high flow inflator/deflator adaptor has an “inflation” outlet and “deflation” outlet. Attach the nozzle to the preferred outlet. NOTE: “Inflation” and
“Deflation” are marked at outlets.
Inflation Position
Deflation Position
4. Insert nozzle into inflatable and start inflator.
NOTE: If inflatable is not getting firm enough, place thumb over the “deflation” outlet to allow air to go directly into the inflatable.
WARNING: Risk of Bursting. DO NOT over-inflate. Keeping thumb over
“Deflation” outlet could cause inflatable to over-inflate. Use caution when placing thumb over “Deflation” outlet.
