• Pump Body: The main cylinder housing the pumping mechanism.
• Copper Quick Connector: For quick and secure attachment to the device being inflated.
• Oil-Moisture Filter: Helps to remove moisture and impurities from the air.
• Spring Hose: Connects the pump to the device.
• Pressure Gauge: Displays the current air pressure, with a working pressure up to 4500psi/310bar.
• Air Release Valve: Used to safely vent residual air pressure from the pump.
• Foot Board: Provides stability during operation and is foldable for storage.

5. Setup

1. Assemble the Foot Board: Attach the foot board to the pump body using the two provided screws. Ensure it is securely fastened.
2. Attach the Handle: Secure the rubber handle to the top of the pump body.
3. Connect the Hose: Connect the spring hose to the pump body and the copper quick connector. Ensure all connections are tight.
4. Install Oil-Moisture Filter: Attach the oil-moisture filter to the quick connector end of the hose.
5. Initial Lubrication: Before first use, inflate the pump approximately 30 times without connecting it to a device. This helps to lubricate the inner wall of the air pump.
6. Check Air Tightness: Before connecting to a device, ensure all connections are tight. Inflate the pump a few times and observe the pressure gauge. If the pointer drops, re-check all connections for tightness. Pay particular attention to the sealing ring within the 8mm female quick connector; ensure it is fixed well. If lost, replace it with a spare.

6. Operating Instructions

1. Connect to Device: Securely attach the copper quick connector to the inflation port of your PCP airgun or other compatible device.
2. Ensure Air Release Valve is Closed: Confirm that the air release valve on the pump is fully closed (tightened).
3. Begin Pumping: Place your feet firmly on the foot board and use smooth, consistent strokes to pump the handle.
4. Monitor Pressure: Continuously monitor the pressure gauge to ensure you do not exceed the maximum pressure rating of your device or the pump (4500psi/300Bar/30Mpa).
5. Stop Pumping: Once the desired pressure is reached, stop pumping.
6. Relieve Pressure: Slowly unscrew the air release valve to vent the residual air pressure from the pump hose. The pressure gauge should drop to zero.
7. Disconnect: Once pressure is relieved, disconnect the quick connector from your device.

7. Maintenance

• Lubrication: If you notice any air leakage or increased resistance during pumping, apply a small amount of silicone oil to the pump's internal seals.
• Filter Replacement: Regularly check the oil-moisture filter. Replace it when it appears saturated or discolored to ensure clean air delivery.
• O-ring Inspection: Periodically inspect all O-rings for wear or damage. Replace any worn or damaged O-rings with the provided spares to maintain air tightness.
• Cleaning: Keep the exterior of the pump clean and free from dirt and debris.
• Storage: After each use, ensure the air release valve is open to keep the pump in a pressure-free state. Fold the foot board for compact storage. Store in a dry environment.

8. Troubleshooting

• Air Leakage:
  • Symptom: Pressure gauge drops rapidly after pumping, or air can be heard escaping.
  • Solution: Check all four main connections (handle to pump body, hose to pump body, hose to quick connector, quick connector to device) for tightness. Inspect O-rings and sealing rings for damage or improper seating. Apply silicone oil to seals if dry.
• Difficulty Pumping / No Pressure Build-up:
  • Symptom: Pump handle feels loose, or pressure does not increase.
  • Solution: Ensure the air release valve is fully closed. Check for internal seal issues; lubrication or O-ring replacement may be necessary.
• Moisture in Air:
  • Symptom: Visible moisture or condensation in the air delivered.
  • Solution: Replace the oil-moisture filter. Ensure the pump is used in a dry environment.
