Safety Information
PRECAUTIONS
1. Save these instructions for future reference.
2. The safety instructions provided in this manual are
not intended to cover all possible conditions that
may occur during product operation. Always use
common sense and pay attention to all WARNING
and CAUTION statements in this manual.
3. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas increase the possibility of
personal injury or property damage.
4. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases, or dust.
5. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
6. Use 12-Volt DC only. Ensure that your vehicle has a
12-Volt power outlet that is free of any ash residue
or debris. A dirty 12-Volt power outlet can cause
the inator and power cord to overheat which can
cause damage to your inator/vehicle and bodily
harm or injury. Disconnect the power when not in
use.
7. Make sure the connection between the 12-Volt
plug-in and the 12-Volt power outlet is secure.
A loose connection can cause the 12-Volt power
outlet to arc and/or spark which can cause damage
to your inator and the 12-Volt power outlet. If this
occurs, it is also possible that the 15-Amp fuse in
your inator’s 12-Volt plug-in can be damaged or
blown if the connection is poor.
8. This inator is designed to inate vehicle tires,
bicycle tires, ATV tires, sports equipment, air
mattresses, beach toys, and other inatables. Do
not use for any purpose other than inating.
9. Allow the inator to cool down for 10 minutes after
each 10 minutes of continuous operation.
10. Turn the power off after using the inator.
11. The inator is not a toy. Keep away from children
at all times.
12. Do not carry the inator by the air hose or power
cord as damage may occur.
13. Do not leave the inator unattended while in
operation.
14. Do not over-inate the item you are inating. Follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for your item.
15. Keep the inator away from ammable areas/
liquids at all times.
16. Do not operate the inator in wet or damp areas.
17. Operate the inator only with the accessories and
or attachments that are included.
18. If available, it is recommended that safety glasses
be used when operating the inator.
19. Risk of Bursting – Use only the recommended
included accessories.

Safety Information (continued)
20. When operating your inator it is recommended
that your vehicle engine be turned on and running.
This allows your vehicle battery to maintain a full
charge and therefore your inator will operate at
maximum power and efciency. It is ok to operate
your inator when your vehicle engine is turned off
and not running, but if your vehicle battery is not
fully charged your inator will operate slower and
also could possibly drain your battery of 12-Volt
current.
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
WARNING: Read and understand all
instructions. Failure to follow the instructions in
this manual can result in electric shock, re and/or
serious personal injury.
WARNING: If your vehicle engine is turned on
and running when you are using your inator,
you must be absolutely sure that your vehicle is
outside or in an open, well-ventilated area and not
inside a conned closed area such as a garage.
Always allow for proper ventilation if you are
running your vehicle engine. If you do not follow
these instructions, bodily harm or asphyxiation
resulting in death could occur.
Warranty
If this Husky product fails due to a defect in material or workmanship within 2 years from date of purchase, return
to any Home Depot store for disposition.

Maintenance
REPLACING THE FUSE
□Check the spade fuse that is built into the 12-Volt DC
power cord (H).
□Lift cover and then remove and examine the fuse (G).
If the metal link inside is separated/broken and/or
discolored, the fuse is bad and needs to be replaced.
□To replace, only use the included spare 15-Amp fuse
or a standard size automotive – ATO 15-Amp spade
fuse(T). Press it rmly into place and then put the
cover over the fuse to protect it.
Care and Cleaning
□Clean the inator with a non-abrasive slightly damp cloth as needed.
□Locate the inator in a clean, dry, and well ventilated area. The inator pump and housing are designed to
allow for proper cooling. The ventilation openings on the inator are necessary to maintain proper operating
temperature. Do not place rags or other materials on or near these openings.
□Wipe plastic parts clean using mild soap and warm water.
□Any other servicing should be done by an authorized service representative.
