SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
1. Always inate tires to manufacturer’s recommended tire pressures. Exercise extreme caution
when driving with aired-down tires.

3. Never make sharp turns while driving with reduced tire pressure.
4. Re-inate tires before high speed traveling onto roadways.
5. Only use heat-resistant, minimum 200 PSI-rated working pressure extension hose.
Some aftermarket hoses may not be suitable for use with this air compressor due to
heat and pressure typically generated by this type of air compressors.
6. Use of a close-ended tire chuck will cause excessive pressure buildup if the tire chuck is
not attached to tire valve stem while air compressor is in operation.
