3. Testing
Testing of the pressure gauge:
1. The testing of the pressure gauge is only possible using special equipment.
Testing of the safety valve:
1. Close the large ball valve and fill the container.
2. Observe the pressure gauge display.
3. The overpressure safety valve must open as soon as the pressure exceeds 11 bar at
810000082 and 9.5 bar at 11139940.
ATTENTION: The container must never be filled with over 9 bar.
Testing pressure losses:
1. Fill the container to 8.5 bar pressure.
2. Observe the pressure gauge.
3. No pressure drop should be seen within an hour
For 810000082 Testing of the ball valves:
1. When filling and emptying the booster filling device make sure that the handle lever
on the ball valve moves smoothly.
4. Intended use
The booster is a device for pumping up tubeless tyres. A common problem with these types
of tyres is air flowing out immediately after filling through the valve, between the rim flange
and the tyre sidewall, making filling more difficult.
The booster is a universal device and can be used independent of rim diameter. The pressure
tank provides a reservoir for the compressed air filled beforehand. The compressed air fills a
tyre when the isolation Ball valve/piston valve is opened rapidly. This causes the tyre sidewalls
to be pressed onto the rim flanges immediately, and filling can then be completed via the tyre
filling valve.
5. Unpacking the booster
Check the contents of the packaging for damage:
The components of the device should be checked for completeness and damage immediately
after opening the packaging. When doing so, please note the statutory return periods.

6. Operation of the booster
1. Filling the container with compressed air:
Close the main valve.
Close the inlet valve for the compressed air.
Connect the filling hose of the booster to the compressor.
Please check and make sure that the pressure on the compressor has been limited to
the maximum permissible pressure for the container.
Connect the filling hose to the filling connection of the container.
Open the inlet valve for the compressed air.
Observe the complete pumping process on the pressure gauge.
Recommended air pressure - see page 10.
Close the inlet valve for the compressed air.
Disconnect the filling hose before further use.
2. Preparing a tyre and starting filling.
a. A wheel is prepared in the horizontal position.
Carefully apply the mounting paste onto the tyre sidewall.
Please place the rim and tyre together so that the lower edge of the tyre comes
into contact with the rim.
The front side of the rim and the filling valve should be directed upwards and
forwards.
In the area around the filling valve, the tyre sidewall ideally should be in contact
with the rim flange. The wedge should be placed under the tyre at this point.
b. Filling the wheel in the horizontal position.
Please place the filling hose onto the tyre filling valve and start filling.
Please make sure you use hearing protection and the safety glasses.
Align the tapered nozzle so that the collar is on the same side as the lever of
the main valve.

Direct the booster at an angle of 50°-70 from vertical opposite to the valve and
start filling the tyre by quickly opening the lever/ Button on the main valve.
c. Preparing the wheel in the vertical position.
Please apply the mounting paste onto the tyre sidewall.
Please support the rim and the tyre on the wall, so that the lower edge of the
tyre is close to the rim.
The front side of the rim and the valve should be pointing towards you.
In the area around the valve the upper edge of the tyre ideally should be in
contact with the rim. The wedge should be placed under the tyre at this point.
d. Filling a wheel in the vertical position.
Place the filling hose onto the filling valve and start filling.
Put on safety glasses and hearing protection.
Direct the booster at an angle of 50°-70° from horizontal opposite to the valve
and start filling the tyre by quickly opening the lever on the drain valve
(810000082) or press the operating button (11139940).
ATTENTION: The tyre mounting paste can be ejected by the compressed air and lead
to injuries.

7. General operating information
The permitted pressure in the container
Pressure values for individual tyre types can be found in the table on page 10. It is
recommended to follow the values provided.
The mounting paste for the tyres
Use the required quantity of mounting paste for the tyres for all types of collars and tyres. An
insufficient quantity of paste can lead to the tyre sliding off a rim again.
A suitable setting angle
A suitable setting angle of the booster with respect to the rim is very important. The
effectiveness is reduced if the air flow hits the rim and loses its force. The same thing occurs
if the airflow hits the sidewall of the tyre. Ideal point to introduce the air is therefore the gap
between the rim flange and the tyre sidewall.
The application point
The most successful approach is to apply the booster opposite the valve. This routes the air
into the tyre from both sides. The space between the rim and the edge of a tyre should be as
large as possible, so that the air can flow out of the container in a free and unhindered
manner.
8. Work safety and hygiene
ATTENTION: The booster must only be used for the purposes described in these
operating instructions.
Bearing
When the device is not needed, it should be stored empty; the tapering nozzle should be
pointed downwards so that condensed moisture can flow out.
The safety valve
The safety valve will open if the maximum permissible filling pressure of 9 bar is exceeded.
The compressed air
The container must only be filled with clean, dry and oil-free air at ambient temperature.
When doing so do not exceed the filling pressure of 9 bar.
Noise
Hearing protection must be worn when using the booster.
ATTENTION: The air which escapes from the booster produces noise, which can lead
to hearing damage, therefore it is mandatory to wear hearing protection.
Hearing protection. The device produces noise at a maximum of 135 dBA. With 6-
10 fills per day, an average noise level of under 70 dB is achieved. Staff who are
located close to the work area must also be protected by hearing protection.

Eye protection. There is a risk of dust, mounting paste or other foreign objects being
ejected by the airflow and causing serious injury to persons. Therefore safety glasses
must always be worn.
Hazards to others
For the protection of persons located close to the work area, the distance between the point
of use and unaffected third parties must be at least 10 m. If it is not possible to comply with
distance, other methods of separation must be provided.
Tyre
ATTENTION: When the edge of the tyre jumps into the final position, it does so with
a large amount of energy and at high speed.
The general protective measures for workshops and tyre fitting and filling devices should be
applied.
for split rims: please make sure that the locking ring is fitted and fixed correctly.
When filling: Do not fill the tyre beyond the recommended permitted pressure; when filling
use a safety cage for tyres.
Damage: Before starting the filling of the tyre please check it carefully for damage.
Unauthorised use
The booster must not be used for example for blowing away dust.
ATTENTION: Never direct the device at persons, animals or other objects. There is a
risk of severe injuries and property damage.
ATTENTION: The tyres and rims must not be cleaned with highly flammable liquids,
before being filled with the booster.
9. Maintenance and storage
Maintenance:
The BOOSTER must be checked for damage regularly, in line with the environment in which
it is used. The pressure tank must be subjected to the required statutory inspections. Any
damaged parts must be replaced by original spare parts prior to use. Please take care not to
damage the tapering filling nozzle. Both maintenance and service work must only be done
with the container empty.
Storage:
The BOOSTER must always be stored with the main valve opened and the tapering nozzle
pointing downwards. The best solution is to hang up the BOOSTER on a suitably load-bearing
wall hook in a dry location. For both maintenance work and storage, the ball valve must be
opened slowly, so that can escape slowly out of the container. When doing so the nozzle
should not be held towards the corner of a room or similar, to prevent staring up dirt particles.
