BLACK+DECKER BDINF20C 20V MAX Cordless Multi-Purpose Tire Inflator Instruction Manual

Introduction

The BLACK+DECKER BDINF20C 20V MAX Cordless Multi-Purpose Inflator is designed to meet various inflation needs, offering versatility with three power sources: 12V DC for vehicle use, 120V AC for home use, and 20V MAX battery power for cordless operation (battery sold separately). This unit provides both high-pressure output for tires and sport balls, and high-volume output for larger inflatables like air mattresses and rafts. It features a digital pressure gauge and automatic shutoff for precise and convenient inflation.

Important Safety Information

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, read all instructions before operating this product. Do not leave the inflator unattended when in use. Wear eye protection. Do not expose to rain. Store indoors. Household use only.

Always ensure the work area is well-lit and clear of obstructions. Keep children and bystanders away. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Always disconnect the charger from the AC outlet before cleaning or performing maintenance. Do not immerse the inflator in water or any other liquid.

For detailed safety guidelines, refer to the included manual.

Setup

Power Sources

The BDINF20C inflator offers three power options:

1. 20V MAX Battery: For cordless operation. (Battery sold separately)
2. 12V DC Car Adapter: For use in vehicles.
3. 120V AC Electric Outlet: For use with standard wall outlets.

Charging a Battery (If applicable)

If using a 20V MAX battery (sold separately), ensure it is fully charged before use. Refer to your battery charger's instruction manual for proper charging procedures. The inflator itself does not charge the battery.

Connecting to Power

Select the appropriate power source for your task. The 12V DC adapter and 120V AC plug are integrated into the unit for convenient storage.

Operating Instructions

High-Pressure Inflation (Tires, Sport Balls)

Use the high-pressure hose for items requiring precise pressure, such as vehicle tires and sport balls. The unit features a digital gauge and automatic shutoff for convenience.

1. Attach the high-pressure hose to the valve stem of the item to be inflated.
2. Press the mode switch to select the high-pressure output.
3. Use the (+) and (-) buttons to set the desired target pressure (PSI, BAR, or KPA). The digital display will show the current pressure.
4. Turn the unit ON. The inflator will automatically stop once the set pressure is reached.

High-Volume Inflation/Deflation (Inflatables, Air Mattresses)

The high-volume hose is used for quickly inflating or deflating larger items. The deflate function rapidly empties air for quick cleanup.

1. Attach the large volume hose to the appropriate port on the inflator.
2. Insert the nozzle into the inflatable item.
3. Press the mode switch to select the high-volume output for inflation or the deflate function for air removal.
4. Turn the unit ON to begin inflation or deflation.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Disconnect the inflator from all power sources before cleaning. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the unit. Do not use any harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure all vents are clear of debris to prevent overheating.

Storage

Store the inflator in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure all hoses and adapters are properly stored in their designated compartments on the unit to prevent damage or loss.

Troubleshooting

Unit Does Not Turn On

• Check the power source: Ensure the 12V DC adapter is fully inserted, the 120V AC plug is securely connected to a live outlet, or the 20V MAX battery is fully charged and properly seated.
• Verify the power switch is in the 'ON' position.

Inflator Not Reaching Desired Pressure

• Ensure the hose connection to the item being inflated is secure to prevent air leaks.
• Confirm the correct pressure unit (PSI, BAR, KPA) is selected on the digital display.
• For high-pressure inflation, ensure the high-pressure hose is used, not the high-volume hose.

Over-inflation/Under-inflation with Automatic Shutoff

The automatic shutoff feature is designed to stop at the set pressure. However, slight variations may occur. If consistent inaccuracy is observed, ensure the digital gauge is calibrated correctly (refer to the full manual for calibration instructions if available) or use a separate, verified pressure gauge to confirm readings.
