Safety Warnings and Precautions
WARNING: When using product, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to equipment.
Read all instructions before using this product!
1.
Store idle equipment. When not in use, the 12V Portable Air Compressor must be stored in a dry location to inhibit damage from moisture and salt air.
2. Check for damaged parts. Before using any appliance, any part that appears damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for any broken or damaged parts and any other conditions that may affect its operation. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.
3.
Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts will void the warranty.
4.
Do not let children play with or use the 12V Portable Air Compressor.
5. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
6. Do not operate the Portable Air Compressor in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Electrical products create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
7. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating the Air Compressor.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
8. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the Air Compressor. Keep
the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power
Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.

9.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the
Air Compressor. Do not operate the Air Compressor while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the
Compressor may result in serious personal injury.
10.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your
hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
11.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying appliances with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in appliances with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
12.
13.
Use safety equipment. Always wear ANSI approved eye protection. ANSI approved equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Check for damaged parts. Before using the Air Compressor, carefully check that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for damaged parts and any other conditions that may affect its operation. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.

SPECIFIC PRECAUTIONS FOR THIS PRODUCT
1.
2.
3.
Do not use this product with the car/truck/motorcycle engine running.
Do not use this product on high pressure tires (large trucks, trailors, tractors, etc.).
Do not exceed the tire air pressure recommended by the tire manufacturer.
4.
5.
Do not leave this product unattended while the unit is running.
Do not use this product continuously for more than 15 minutes. Allow this product to cool approximately 5 minutes after inflating a tire or other inflatable.
6.
Be careful to make sure you do not overinflate. Inflatable items constructed of soft materials (balls, beach toys, air mattresses, rubber rafts, etc.) will usually not show manufacturer recommended air pressure.
Explosion Danger: overinflating can result in serious personal injury.

7.
To avoid dangerous oncoming traffic, always use this product as far away from the road side as
possible.
Always use a tire pressure gauge to check the actual pressure in tires.
When using the Blow Gun Nozzle accessory, always point the Nozzle away from your body and away from others.
10.
Do not operate the Emergency Light continuously for periods of one hour or more.
Doing so will cause the unit to overheat, and may damage the unit and/or cause personal injury. It is recommended that the Emergency Light only be operated continuously for up to 45 minutes. Then, turn off the Emergency Light and allow the unit to cool for a minimum of 10 minutes before re-use.
Warning: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

The Portable Air Compressor is now ready for operating.
NOTE: In the event the tire is totally deflated it may have separated from the tire rim. In this case, you may need to jack up the vehicle prior to inflating the tire. If this occurs, make certain to follow all safety instructions for the jack and for the motor vehicle.
The Air Pressure Gauge
2.
3.
1.
4.
The Air Pressure Gauge (36) is located on the top of the Portable Air Compressor-(see
Figure 3) and is calibrated in P.S.I. (Pounds Per Square Inch).
The maximum air pressure this unit will produce is 300 P.S.I.
Explosion Danger! Do not inflate the air pressure beyond the pressure recommended by the manufacturer of the item you are inflating. Over inflating a tire or inflatable may result in serious personal injury and property damage.
To obtain an accurate air pressure reading, turn off the Portable Air Compressor when reading the gauge.
The Emergency Light
The Emergency Light is located at the front of the Portable Air Compressor-see Figure 3.
1.
2.
To use the Emergency Light, plug the DC Power Cord (11) into the cigarette lighter socket.
Then turn the DC Power Cord “ON”/”OFF” Switch (2) to the “ON” position.
