2. Impostazione e preparazione

2.1 Valve Head Conversion (Presta/Schrader)

The Tire Booster features a universal valve head compatible with both Presta (FV) and Schrader (AV) valves. To switch between valve types, simply reverse the internal components of the nozzle head.

  1. Unscrew the outer cap of the nozzle head.
  2. Remove the internal rubber gasket and the plastic insert.
  3. For Presta (FV) valves, ensure the circular hole of the plastic insert faces outwards.
  4. For Schrader (AV) valves, ensure the sharp hole of the plastic insert faces outwards.
  5. Reinsert the rubber gasket and plastic insert in the correct orientation, then screw the outer cap back on securely.

2.2 Preparing the Tire for Inflation

Before inflating, ensure the tubeless tire is properly seated against the rim. A tight seal is crucial to prevent air leakage during the initial inflation burst. If there are visible gaps between the tire bead and the rim, the booster may not effectively seat the tire.

3. Istruzioni per l'uso

3.1 Charging the Tire Booster

The Tire Booster must be charged with air using an external pump before use. It can be inflated with a manual floor pump or an electric air compressor.

  1. Connect your external pump to the Schrader valve on the top of the Tire Booster.
  2. Inflate the air storage tank to 150-200 PSI. Do not exceed 200 PSI.
  3. Once charged, disconnect the external pump.

3.2 Inflating a Bicycle Tire

Follow these steps to inflate your bicycle tire using the charged Tire Booster:

  1. Ensure the valve head on the booster's hose is configured for your tire's valve type (Presta or Schrader) as described in Section 2.1.
  2. Connect the booster's nozzle head securely to the tire's valve stem.
  3. Rotate the blue valve switch on the booster from the 'storage' position to the 'inflation' position. This will release the stored air rapidly into the tire.
  4. Listen for the tire bead to audibly 'pop' into place, indicating a successful seal.
  5. Once the tire is seated, disconnect the booster. The tire will have some initial pressure, but you will need to use a regular pump to achieve the desired riding pressure.

4. Manutenzione

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your CYCLAMI Tire Booster.

  • Pulizia: Wipe the exterior of the booster with a clean, damp panno dopo l'uso. Evitare l'uso di prodotti chimici aggressivi o materiali abrasivi.
  • Magazzinaggio: Store the Tire Booster in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. It is recommended to store it with a small amount of pressure (e.g., 20-30 PSI) to maintain seal integrity, but not fully charged.
  • Ispezionare tubi flessibili e guarnizioni: Periodically check the hose and valve head for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Ensure all connections are tight. Replace components if damage is observed.
  • Nucleo della valvola: Ensure the valve core on the booster's inflation port is clean and free of debris to allow for efficient charging.

5. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your Tire Booster, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:

ProblemaPossibile causaSoluzione
Tire does not seat or inflates slowly.
  • Insufficient air pressure in booster.
  • Tire bead not properly seated on rim.
  • Valve head not securely attached to tire valve.
  • Incorrect valve head configuration (AV/FV).
  • Ensure booster is charged to 150-200 PSI.
  • Apply soapy water to tire beads and rim to aid seating. Ensure no gaps (refer to Image 2.2).
  • Check that the nozzle head is firmly locked onto the tire valve.
  • Verify the valve head is correctly configured for your tire's valve type (Presta or Schrader).
Air leaks from booster during charging or inflation.
  • Collegamenti allentati.
  • Damaged hose or seals.
  • Valve switch not fully engaged.
  • Tighten all connections, including the hose to the booster and the valve head.
  • Controllare che il tubo flessibile e le guarnizioni non siano danneggiati; sostituirli se necessario.
  • Ensure the blue valve switch is fully rotated to the desired position (storage or inflation).
Booster cannot be charged to full pressure.
  • External pump issue.
  • Booster's internal valve core obstruction.
  • Check your external pump for proper function.
  • Inspect the Schrader valve core on the booster for debris or damage.
