GENERAL OPERATING WARNINGS
• This unit is designed to supply continuous ow of air. Never dead end the hose or use
accessories that stop the free ow of air. Damage to the unit can occur.
• Only use the air compressor in an upright position.
• This product should never be left unattended during use.
• Never allow children to operate this compressor.
• This compressor may become HOT during operation.
• Do not touch the compressor with bare hands other than the battery clamps or the
On/O switch during and immediately after use.
• Do not use this product near open ames or ammable fumes.
• Use only in a well ventilated area.
• Always wear approved safety glasses with side shields when operating the
compressor; particulate matter, such as sand and bulldust, can be “stirred up” by
compressed air, and may gain entry to the eye, and cause a medical problem
• Risk of Burns: the compressor will become hot during operation; gloves should be
worn to prevent burns.
• Risk to Breathing: the compressor is not designed as a source of breathable air, and
should never be used as a source of breathable air.
• Risk of Electrical Shock: the compressor is designed for use in dry conditions only.
• Risk of Falling: the compressor will vibrate during use; ensure it is operated at
ground level on at level surface, to prevent the possibility of the compressor falling
during operation.
• Risk of Fire: the unit will become hot during use; allow to cool before storage
• Risk of Bursting: do not exceed the tyre manufacturer’s maximum air pressure,
which can be found on the side wall of the tyre being inated.
• DO NOT modify: never drill, modify or attempt repair of the unit; there are not
serviceable parts inside.
• Safe handling: carry the compressor by its handle; do not attempt to carry be either

COMPRESSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• The air compressor must only be operated with the operator in attendance; do not
leave the air compressor unattended.
• Before using, rst check the unit and air hose for any visible signs of damage; if no
damage visible, proceed as indicated below.
• Attach air hose to compressor by way of quick coupler, as shown in Fig. 1.
• Ensure the on/o switch is in the o position.
• Connect the red alligator battery clamp to the positive [red] battery terminal, connect
the black alligator battery clamp clip to the negative [black] battery terminal.
• Ensure the electrical cord is fully extended; no part should remain coiled up as this
will lead to unwanted and potentially damaging heat build up.
• Important to leave the engine running during the period the compressor is running
to avoid the possibility of attening the vehicle battery.
• Activate the on switch and ensure air is being supplied.
• Attach the air delivery hose the tyre valve stem with the compressor running.
The attachment mechanism allows air to escape whilst the nozzle is being attached;
nger tighten only.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Manufacturer’s speed rating on tyres is only applicable when tyres are inated to
manufacturer’s specication. In an o road situation, tyres are frequently deated to
cope with challenging conditions. In these situations, the tyre speed rating is no longer
applicable and the vehicle should be driven with caution. Driving with excessive speed
on a partially deated tyre could cause the tyre to dislodge from the wheel rim.
• Important the tyre be correctly inated when returning to the black top, before
resuming normal driving speed.
• Never make sharp turns whilst driving with reduced tyre pressure.
• Only use the supplied heat resistant pressure extension hose. If a replacement is
required, contact the customer service team on 1300 883104.

• Pump to the desired pressure; if above the desired pressure, push the deator collar
towards the valve stem, which will allow air to escape.
• Remove the air hose, check with an independent pressure gauge to ensure the
correct pressure has been attained.
• Repeat this process for all remaining tyres which require ination.
• At the completion of the ination process, activate the o switch on the air
compressor [the compressor will stop] and remove the alligator clips from the
battery terminals.
• Allow the compressor to cool.
• Remove the air delivery hose
from the compressor [as
shown in Fig. 2], being careful
when engaging the quick
release collar as the collar will
become hot during normal
operation of the compressor.
• Only when satised the compressor has cooled suciently, pack in the storage bag,
and resume your journey.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
We recommend that only qualied persons perform maintenance and servicing on the
air compressor.
• Note: Always unplug or shut down your compressor before attempting any type of
maintenance. Wait for compressor to cool before servicing.
Ensure the unit has been switched o and has cooled down completely
before cleaning.
• Never immerse this unit in water.
• Simply wipe down with a soft cloth.

that some components can be recycled and recovered for re-use. DO NOT attempt to
dissemble any electronic product unless you are a trained electronics technician.
