  1. Work Area Safety

    • a) Use the product in a dry and clean environment. The intrusion of sand and dust may cause damage to the product.
    • 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 the dust or fumes.
    • c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating the power tool. This product is NOT a toy and should not be used by children. Users should be above 16 years old.
    • d) If there is an unusual noise or the temperature becomes very high during inflating, please turn off the inflator immediately.
  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 bodily 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 the 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 the power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use to reduce the risk of electric shock.
    • f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply to reduce the risk of electric shock.
  3. Personal Safety

    • a) Stay alert, pay close attention, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use the 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 injury.
    • b) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to the power source and 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.
    • c) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
    • d) 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.
    • e) Store the tyre inflator out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it.
  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 before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of accidentally starting the power tool.
      d) 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.

    • e) Keep the tire inflator clean.

    • f) Use the power tool and accessories as directed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Important Charging Notes

  1. The longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery is charged when the air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°C and 24°C). DO NOT charge when the inflator is below 40°F (4.5°C) or above 104°F (40°C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery.
  2. The tire inflator may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the inflator after use, avoid placing the inflator in a warm environment such as in a metal shed or an uninsulated trailer.
  3. If the inflator does not charge properly:
    • a. Check the operation of the outlet by plugging in another appliance;
    • b. Check to see if the outlet is connected to a light switch which turns the power off when you turn off the lights;
    • c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately between 65°F and 75°F (18°C and 24°C).  surrounding air temperature is approximately between 65°F and 75°F (18°C and 24°C).
    • d. If charging problems persist, please contact our customer service representatives at support@anykit.com or call us at 877.888.7979 (Monday to Friday 8 am-5 pm PST).
  4. The inflator should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use the inflator under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no  adverse effect on the inflator.
  5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply after the battery is fully charged. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean it.
  6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.

OPERATION

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn the unit off, and disconnect it from the power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Switching On

  • WARNING: Risk of Bursting. Do not leave the running inflator unattended. Over-inflation of tyres and other items could result in injury and property damage.

NOTE:

  • When powered on, the digital display on the inflator will remain on for approximately 2 minutes before the display shuts off/goes into sleep mode.
  • This occurs when the unit is not operating. To wake up the system, press and hold the power switch until it turns on. The screen will turn on and the inflator will be ready for use.
  • Before switching your inflator on, decide which power source you want to use, either the built-in 12000mAh battery or the 12V DC vehicle connector.
  • If using the 12V CD vehicle connector as the power source, follow the instructions to connect the inflation hose and car. Select the appropriate tyre pressure unit and value and press the power switch located on the front of the unit.

Powering with the 12V DC Vehicle Connector

  • To use the 12V DC vehicle connector, connect it to your vehicle’s 12V DC accessory socket.
  • Always fully extend the 12V DC cord before each use.
  • Your vehicle’s accessory socket must be rated for 10A (not applicable to cars lower than 10A or higher than 10A).

To Inflate Using High Pressure on a Vehicle, Motorcycle, or Bicycle Tire

  • WARNING: Risk of Bursting. Excessive air pressure may cause a hazardous risk of bursting or personal injury. Please check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating first for items being inflated.

NOTE:

  • If the pressure rating for the item being inflated is above 50 PSI, note that the maximum run time is 10 minutes. The high-pressure hose is meant to be used for objects that need more air pressure, such as tyres and basketballs.
  • You may notice the actual pressure reading may drop after a couple of seconds. This is normal.
  • If the power switch is turned off, all settings will be lost and will need to be reentered. This is a safety feature to prevent the risk of items overinflating.

Repairs

  • If the inflator will not turn on, check the battery, all connections, and the fuse in the 12V DC vehicle connector.
  • The inflator display will show an error code under certain conditions. Refer to the troubleshooting chart.
