GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety
   a) Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
   b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite dust or fumes.
   c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety
   a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
   b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
   c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
   d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
   e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. The use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
   f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety
   a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a power source and/or battery pack, picking up, or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
   d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
   f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
   g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. The use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
   h) Do not let familiarity gained from the frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4. Power tool use and care
   a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
   b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
   c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
   d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
   e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
   f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
   g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
   h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5. Battery tool use and care
   a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
   b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
   c) When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
   d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts the eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
   e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
   f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause an explosion. NOTE The temperature „130 °C“ can be replaced by the temperature „265 °F“.
   g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

6. Service
   a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
   b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

OPERATION

First use (Fig. A)
Do not cover the vents.
Do not operate the device in dusty environments. Doing so poses a fire hazard and could damage the device.
Place the product on a level, non-flammable surface. Depending on the inflatable you can use the connection valve (14) directly or along with one of the included valve adapters (5-10). For inflatables with counterpressure (e.g. partly filled car tire): Switch on the product before connecting the connection valve (14) to the tire.
This product is not suitable for continuous operation. It was developed to produce air pressure, not air volume. Do not use the product for longer than 10 minutes without interruption to prevent overheating and damage to the device. Afterward, allow cooling for a minimum of 10 minutes.
Charging the machine (Fig. B, C)
The machine must be charged before first use.

• Plug the USB type-C plug (16) into the USB type-C connector (20) on the machine.
• Plug the USB type-A plug (18) into a power adapter (not included) or device (e.g. computer, power bank) with a suitable female USB connector. Please note that the device should be able to deliver constant 5V 2A power.
• The Battery LED indicator (4) will lighten up and show the charging status.

Checking the battery charging status (Fig. A)

• The Battery LED indicator (4) indicates the battery charge status.
• The battery has 3 lights indicating the charge level, the more lights that burn, the more charge the battery has left.
• When the lights are not burning it means the battery is empty and must be charged immediately.

When the machine is not being used over a longer period of time it is best to store the battery in charged condition.
Connecting to a cigarette lighter socket (Fig. A, B, C)
Verify the socket of the cigarette lighter in your vehicle has an adequately sized fuse.
Alternatively to using the integrated li-ion battery, the machine can also be powered from a 12V cigarette lighter socket. This could come in handy, for example, if the battery is empty, but there is no possibility to recharge.

• Plug the power plug (13) into the power connector (19) on the machine.
• Plug the cigarette lighter plug (11) into the socket of the 12V cigarette lighter. If you are unsure how to perform this, please consult the manual of the vehicle.

When using a 12V cigarette lighter socket as a power source, please start the vehicle to protect the vehicle battery.
Connecting the valve without a valve adapter (Fig. A, B, C, D, F, G)
Use a calibrated pressure gauge (e.g. at a petrol station) to check the required tire pressure. It is imperative to read the information in the vehicle’s owner manual concerning the inflation of tires.

1. Open the connection valves (14) on both sides of the air pressure hose (15), so the clamping levers (23) will be in position as shown in figure D1.
2. Put one of the open connection valves onto the air pressure outlet connector (22) on the machine, as shown in figure F. Now close the valve by pushing the clamping lever (24) downwards.

4. The inflation process will stop automatically as soon as the set target pressure is reached. It is always possible to manually stop the inflation process by pressing the start/stop button (32).

Inflation with Car/SUV preset target pressure
The device is fitted with two preset target pressure options: Car-2.40 bar and SUV-2.80 bar. Please note that these are only indicative values. Actual tire pressure varies from vehicle to vehicle.
We therefore strongly recommend that you consult your vehicle manual to find out the recommended tire pressure.

1. Press either the car preset button (25) or the SUB preset button (26). The preset pressure will be shown on the display (27).
2. After the required value is set, the display (27) will return the current pressure value.
3. Press the start/stop button (32) to start the inflation process. The pressure shown on the display will now increase to the set pressure.
4. The inflation process will stop automatically as soon as the set target pressure is reached. It is always possible to manually stop the inflation process by pressing the start/stop button (32).

LED indication ring
The LED indication ring (24) offers a quick way to roughly indicate the pressure status:

• Yellow: Pressure is suitable for SUVs.
• Green: Pressure is suitable for CAR.
• Orange: Pressure is too low.
• Red: Pressure is too high.

Removing the connection valve

• Connecting without valve adapter: Open the clamping lever (23) of the connection valve (14) and remove it from the valve of inflatable.
• Connecting with valve adapter: Remove the valve adapter (5-10) from the valve of the inflatable. Open the clamping lever (23) of the connection valve (14) and remove the valve adapter (5-10).

Note: Air may escape from the valve of the inflatable when removing the connection valve (14). Be sure not to remove the connection valve (14) too quickly. It may be necessary to add extra pressure to the required pressure, to compensate for the escaped air.

MAINTENANCE

Always unplug the 12V plug from the cigarette lighter socket before carrying out any maintenance work.
Clean the machine casings regularly with a soft cloth, preferably after each use. Make sure that the ventilation openings are free of dust and dirt. Remove very persistent dirt using a soft cloth moistened with soapsuds. Do not use any solvents such as gasoline, alcohol, ammonia, etc. Chemicals such as these will damage the synthetic components. ENVIRONMENT
Faulty and/or discarded electrical or electronic apparatus have to be collected at the appropriate recycling locations.
Only EC countries
Do not dispose of power tools into domestic waste. According to the European Guideline 2012/19/EC for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its implementation into national right, power tools that are no longer usable must be collected separately and disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.
