4. Setup
Before first use, follow these steps to set up your foot pump:
- Unfold the Pump: Carefully unfold the foot pump from its compact storage position. Ensure the foot pedal is securely locked into place for stable operation.
- Position the Pump: Place the pump on a firm, level surface to prevent it from tipping over during use.
- Prepare the Hose: Uncoil the air hose and ensure it is free from kinks or obstructions.

5. Operating Instructions
To inflate an item using your YATO YT-7350 foot pump:
- Select the Correct Nozzle: For bicycle or car tires, the standard valve connector on the hose is usually sufficient. For other inflatables (e.g., sports balls, air mattresses), select an appropriate nozzle from the included accessories and attach it firmly to the hose connector.
- Connect to Valve: Securely attach the hose connector to the valve stem of the item you wish to inflate. Ensure a tight seal to prevent air leakage.
- Begin Pumping: Place your foot firmly on the pedal and press down smoothly and evenly. Allow the pedal to return to its upright position before pressing down again. Repeat this motion to pump air.
- Monitor Pressure: Continuously observe the integrated pressure gauge to monitor the inflation level. Stop pumping once the desired pressure is reached. Refer to the item's manufacturer for recommended pressure levels.
- Disconnect: Once the desired pressure is achieved, quickly and carefully disconnect the hose from the valve stem.

6. Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your foot pump:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the pump with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and debris. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Fold the pump into its compact position and store it in a dry, clean environment. Ensure the hose is neatly coiled to prevent damage.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the hose, connectors, and pedal mechanism for any signs of wear or damage. Replace any damaged parts immediately.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your YATO YT-7350 foot pump, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Pump not inflating / Air leaking | Loose connection to valve; Damaged hose or connector; Internal seal issue. | Ensure hose is securely attached to the valve. Check hose and connector for damage. If problem persists, contact customer support. |
| Inaccurate pressure gauge reading | Gauge malfunction; Air leakage during reading. | Ensure a tight seal. Compare reading with another reliable gauge if possible. If consistently inaccurate, contact customer support. |
| Pedal is stiff or difficult to press | Lack of lubrication; Debris in mechanism. | Inspect for debris. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to moving parts if necessary. |
