4. Setup
- Charge Battery: Ensure your TOTAL P20S 20V battery is fully charged using a compatible TOTAL P20S charger (both sold separately).
- Install Battery: Slide the charged battery into the battery slot at the base of the compressor gun until it clicks securely into place.
- Attach Nozzle/Adapter: Select the appropriate inflation nozzle or adapter for the item you intend to inflate. Securely attach it to the end of the 40 cm inflation hose.
- Check Connections: Verify that all connections are tight to prevent air leakage during operation.
5. Operating Instructions
- Prepare Item for Inflation: Position the item to be inflated in a stable manner.
- Connect Nozzle: Firmly attach the selected nozzle or adapter to the valve of the item you are inflating.
- Monitor Pressure: The compressor gun features an analog pressure gauge. Continuously monitor the pressure reading during inflation to avoid over-inflation. The maximum supported pressure is 150 Psi / 10 Bar.
- Start Inflation: Press and hold the trigger to begin inflating. Release the trigger to stop.
- Check Recommended Pressure: Always inflate to the manufacturer's recommended pressure. For vehicle tires, this information is typically found on a sticker inside the driver's side door jamb or in the vehicle's owner's manual.
- Avoid Overheating: Do not operate the compressor for more than 30 minutes continuously. If prolonged use is required, allow the unit to cool down for at least 15-20 minutes after each 30-minute cycle.
- Disconnect: Once the desired pressure is reached, release the trigger and carefully disconnect the nozzle from the item's valve.
