Operation

Using the Air Compressor

WARNING: Fire hazard

The compressor is designed for short term operation only. Operating the compressor over an extended period of time will cause the compressor unit to overheat, which could lead to fire.

Allow the compressor to cool down for 10 minutes after each 10 minutes of continuous operation.

WARNING: Fire hazard

Do not leave the compressor unattended while in operation. Keep out of reach of children.

WARNING: Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment

Do not exceed the recommended pressure of either the compressor or the object being inflated. The compressor is capable of inflating to 250 PSI. If either recommended pressure is exceeded, an explosion may result.

WARNING: Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment

If the XPower Powerpack shuts off due to an over-temperature condition, turn OFF the power switch and allow the compressor to cool for 15 minutes before re-starting. If the power switch is not turned off before the unit reaches an acceptable operating temperature, the unit will automatically turn itself back on.

If left unattended it is possible that the unit can over-inflate the object and create an explosion hazard.

CAUTION

The XPower Powerpack cannot be used to inflate large capacity inflatables such as float tubes, large air mattresses, and inflatable boats. These types of products require extended inflating times which may damage the compressor.
