• To avoid possible electrical shock or re, special care should be taken when using near
the water or metal. Don’t use the pump close to your fuel tank or an open ame.
• Please make sure the pump with correct pressure setting for your chamber before
pumping at every time. This pump can hold the last pressure setting after disconnect the
power. Factory default setting is 25Kpa (3.6 PSI) when the pump is new.
• Make sure the connection is correct when hook up to the battery.
• Keep the pump away from children. Store the pump in a dry & cool area away from
water, sun and heat.
You may need to know:
• Carefully examine the air pump & your inatable product before you start. Please make
sure your pump or battery fully charged before using.
• Pump has double stages and the sound of each stage is dierent. 2nd stage will produce
noisy sound since the dual cylinders pumping.
• Before connecting the pump of the battery, please make sure the battery voltage is 12V,
and the max loading of power source can support 30A current.
• Please return the unit to the manufacturer or the place of purchase for service or
replacement. Repairs may only be performed by an authorized service technician.
• Please KEEP this instruction manual. The manufacturer is not responsible for damage

Safety Instructions
Don’t let the pump overheat:
• You can use your original valve adaptor other than the coming valve adaptors if it is
better.
• Test run is necessary before your rst time using. Don’t leave the pump running
unattended even considering its auto stop feature! You can stop the pump at any
time by using the power button.
• Do not use it for more than 30 minutes continuously. And the 2nd (cylinder) stage
continued working time is limited to 15 minutes. Long periods of use can cause
overheating and damage the inator.
• Smaller valve ttings can limit the airow speed, the pump could be easier to get
overheat, Your attention is very important and the pump continued working time must
be reduced.
• Low quality power source will slow down a lot pump running at high pressure 2nd stage,
it can cause the pump over heat quickly and give the damage. We do not suggest to use
a non certied battery to operate.
• If the air hose (pump side) temperature is over 80ºC (176ºF), please stop using the pump
to let it cool down.
• If the environment temperature is high, the max pump continued working time may be
reduced.
• This pump is built in the air lter, please rst check the air lter if the air ow is unusual.

Air Valves
• This pump is suitable for the products that are using the HR (Halkey-Roberts), Bravo
or similar type air valve. This kind of air valve has a turning pin at the middle to control
the valve’s open & closed position. There are universal valve adaptors supplied with the
pump to t it.
• Bravo type air valves have a pin in the middle for pushing instead of turning to control
its open & closed position. Our universal valve adaptors will t Bravo air valves.
• Please keep the air valve it the closed position when inating the chamber.
• This pump also comes with other 8 universal valve adaptors. If you can’t nd the right
valve adaptor for your inatable product, please use your original valve adaptor.

Boston Air Valve or Leaeld C7 Air Valve
• Some air valves have a built-in diaphragm to stop air from escaping when inating. The
Boston type & Leaeld C7 air valve use a built-in rubber diaphragm or diaphragm &
spring, they will cause excessive back pressure.
• When inating chambers with this style of valve, you must monitor the pump closely. This
style of valve causes the pump to overheat prematurely because of the back pressure
caused by the valve diaphragm.
• This back pressure will give the pump’s sensor a false reading and cause the 2nd stage
to start early. This will cause the pump working for longer and harder.
• Our universal valve adaptors may t almost all type of Boston valves. And we can provide
the original valve adaptors for C7 air valve.

Instructions for Use
Get your pump and battery ready
• Choose the proper tting for the air valve of your inatable product. Put the valve at the
ination position. Attach the correct valve adaptor to the ination hose that comes with
your pump. Attach the other end to the pump (smooth round outlet on the pump).
• Connect the pump’s terminals to the battery paying close attention to the polarity. Make
sure the clips are on the same colour electrode and properly connected. Otherwise the
pump won’t turn on or run properly.
• If you have the model with the built-in battery, please make sure the battery has been
charged. A new fully charged battery should last 30 minutes or more for regular use.
If the battery is low, please charge the pump by using the charger comes with the
package.
Using the pump - Ination
• Turn on the POWER switch and enter the maximum desired pressure by using the set
pressure (UP) buttons, the set pressure will be shown on the right hand side of LCD
screen. Use the last button to switch the pressure display mode between KPa and PSI.
• (10KPa = 100mbr = 1.45 PSI). Factory default working pressure is set as 25KPa (3.6
PSI).This pressure is suitable for most inatable boats.
• Min set pressure is 1 PSI (8Kpa), if you only need lower pressure than 1 PSI, you can
keep monitoring the screen pressure reading and stop the pump manually.
• Press the POWER button to start. During ination, the left hand side of LCD screen
should show the pressure that the inator has reached. As soon as the entered pressure
has been reached, the inator turns o automatically. And the inator can be turned o at
any time by pressing the POWER button again. Take o the air hose from the chamber
once the pump stops pumping. It is possible to stop the inator at any time by pressing
the (OFF) switch.
• The inator operates in two stages which can be identied by the noise of the turbine
at the beginning followed by the piston. The inator switches from turbine to piston
automatically. If the chamber pressure is over 7KPa / 1 PSI, the pump will start the 2nd
stage only. If the set pressure is lower than the chamber’s pressure, the pump won’t turn
on.

Instructions for Use
• Protect the inator from sand & water by keeping it in the provided carrying bag when
not in use. If sand or water gets into the inator and over the air lter holding limit, the air
pump will be damaged and no warranty covered.
Using the pump - Deating
• If you can use the pump to inate the chamber, you can use it to deate the same
chamber too.
• Attach the yellow hose onto the deation side of the inator (round outlet with notches).
Attach the other end to the chamber you wish to deate.
• You don’t have to set any pressure, just press the START button. The turbine fan will
work for the deation operation. The 2nd stage will never get started since the pressure
monitoring feature no function.
• When you have most of the air out of the chamber, turn the pump o and disconnect the
hose from that chamber. You must turn o the pump manually since it won’t auto stop.
WARNING: Never leave the pump unattended when using this feature as you
may cause extreme damage to your inatable and the pump.

Battery & Maintenance
About Battery & Charger
• The pump has a built-in battery & travel charger. The type of this battery is 12V gel
battery, lead acid type, battery capacity 7AH. The battery will have up to 500 Cycles & up
to 8 years battery life time if you can follow this maintenance manual.
• Always keep the pump battery fully charged before putting at storage or after every use.
• The charger is 110/240V travel type with double charging procedures. When you plug in
the charge and connect with the pump, a red light showing on the charger can indicate
the battery charging. The max charging current is 1A from the charger.
• After the battery 95% charged, the charger will turn to a battery recovery procedure with
a special current. The light still shows RED and the entire charging period will be up to 72
hours.
• When the battery recovery charging done, the charger light will turn green and
automatically shut o.
• Always take o all the power connection when the battery fully charged. Make sure the
pump had been TURN OFF before storing it. Don’t leave the charger on the wall when no
using.
• Tips: A pump over-night charging should be good enough for your 2nd day using.
Pump Storage
• Check the pressure setting before you remove or turn o the air pump. If you used to
change the pressure setting, the pump will remember this new setting when starting up
next time.
• Disconnect the power or turn o the power switch of the air pump. Clean all dirt, sand,
etc from the pump. If the pump gets wet, let it dry in the air before packing it into the
carrying bag.
• Best to store your pump in a temperature range 5 ºC - 20ºC (40ºF - 68ºF).
• For a Lead Acid type battery, you should fully charge the battery before storing. Leaving
the battery in a poorly charged state for extended periods of time (1 month or more) will
damage the battery.

Battery & Maintenance
• If you fully charged the pump just prior to storing it, there should be no need to recharge
it for months.
• If you see a Low Battery icon on the LCD screen, please recharge the battery within 24
hours. If the battery will not hold a charge any more, the battery may need to be replaced
in most case.
Additional works on valve adaptor and air lter
• We may install the HR/BRAVO type universal valve adaptor onto the yellow hose. You
may switch to another air valve adaptor by twisting o the attached one. If you wish to
permanently attach a valve adaptor, you may use electric tape on the air valve adaptor
to make it t tight.
