Need help?Do you have a question about the XTM WM102-15C and is the answer not in the manual?
The XTM 150PSI 250LPM Dual Air Compressor is a robust and portable 12-volt DC air compressor designed for inflating tires and other sporting equipment, particularly suited for off-road and outdoor enthusiasts. Its primary function is to provide a reliable air source for inflation, ensuring users are not stranded due to inadequate tire pressure.
This dual air compressor is engineered to inflate tires and various inflatable items quickly and efficiently. It operates by connecting directly to a 12-volt vehicle battery or power source. The unit features a quick-connect fitting for its 10-meter rubber air hose, allowing for easy setup and reach around a vehicle. Users can choose between a screw-type connector or a thumb-lock adaptor for connecting to tire valve systems. An in-line pressure gauge with multi-readings (0-150 PSI / 0-1,034 kPa) allows for precise monitoring of inflation pressure, preventing over-inflation. The compressor is equipped with an automatic thermal cut-off protection system that activates if the unit reaches an unsafe operating temperature, cutting off power to prevent damage. This safety feature automatically resets once the unit cools down, typically within 15 minutes depending on ambient conditions. Additionally, an auto-reset circuit breaker is built-in to protect against electrical damage from overload or short circuits. The compressor is designed for ease of use, with a simple ON/OFF switch located on its body.
The compressor is designed for straightforward operation. Before use, it should be placed on a dry, level surface near the vehicle battery. The 10-meter air hose connects to the compressor via a quick-connect fitting. Users then select the appropriate valve connector (screw-type or thumb-lock adaptor) and attach it to the tire valve. The RED battery clamp connects to the positive (+) post of the 12-volt battery, and the BLACK clamp to the negative (-) post. Once connections are secure, the compressor is switched ON to begin inflation, with the pressure gauge allowing for real-time monitoring. It is crucial to inflate tires only to the manufacturer's recommended pressure to avoid serious injury or death from tire failure. For smaller items like bicycle tires or sport balls, extra caution and close attention to the pressure gauge are advised. After inflation, the valve cap should be refitted, and the battery clamps disconnected. The unit should be allowed to cool completely before being stored in its handy carry bag in a dry location. Safety glasses are recommended during use due to the potential for sparks and explosive gasses from vehicle batteries. All parts of the unit, including the handle, hose, and compressor body, can generate high heat during and after operation, so allowing the unit to cool before handling is essential to prevent burns.
The XTM Dual Air Compressor is designed for minimal maintenance. All moving parts are permanently lubricated during manufacturing, eliminating the need for additional lubrication by the user. Regular inspection of the compressor unit and hoses for signs of damage before and after each use is recommended. The air filter, a built-in cleanable sponge filter, should be checked regularly, at least every six months. To clean the filter, simply remove its cover, wash it gently in mild soapy water, rinse well, and replace it once dry. This simple maintenance routine helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the compressor. The unit's robust construction and integrated safety features contribute to its overall reliability and ease of care.
