• Extended Reach: Comes with a 12-inch flexible rubber hose, offering ample reach and maneuverability for various tire valve positions.
• Standard Connection: Features a standard 1/4-18 NPT female inlet thread on the inflator body, allowing for straightforward connection to most air compressor lines.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Model Number: 100D
• Pressure Range: 10 to 120 PSI
• Pressure Increment: 2 PSI
• Hose Length: 12 inches
• Inlet Thread: 1/4-18 NPT Female
• Included: Amflo Straight-On Tapered Chuck Inflator (100D) with 12″ hose

HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare Your Air Source: Connect the inflator’s 1/4-18 NPT female inlet thread to your air compressor hose. Ensure your air compressor is turned on and set to a pressure not exceeding 300 PSI.
2. Access the Tire Valve: Remove the valve cap from the tire you intend to inflate.
3. Attach the Chuck: Firmly press the straight-on tapered chuck of the inflator onto the tire valve stem. Ensure a snug fit to prevent air leakage.
4. Read the Pressure: While the chuck is attached, observe the solid brass bar gauge to read the current tire pressure.
5. Adjust Pressure:
   • To Add Air: Squeeze the handle of the inflator to allow compressed air to flow into the tire. Monitor the gauge until the desired pressure is reached.
   • To Release Air: If the pressure is too high, slightly depress the side lever or button (if present) on the inflator, or gently push the valve core with the tip of the chuck (if no specific release mechanism is present) to release air. Re-check the pressure.
6. Remove and Recap: Once the desired tire pressure is achieved, remove the inflator chuck from the valve stem and replace the tire valve cap.
