PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Tailgate Tools Cordless Air Compressors
are installed with a built-in 12V lead acid
battery to provide a power source to the
compressor and the DC 12V power supply. Its intended use is to inflate automotive and light truck tires to manufacturers
recommended pressures, and to inflate
low pressure inflatables such as rafts,
cushions, and sports balls. Refer to vehicle owner’s manual or inflatable product
operator’s manual for proper inflation procedure.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
A. Care and maintenance of battery
1. The battery of this compressor is not
fully charged at the time of purchase.
Before initial use, it must be charged
for 15 hours using the AC charger enclosed.
2. Recharge the battery every 3 to 6
months if the battery has not been
used. If the battery is totally drained and
without proper recharging; the battery
may not be rechargeable.
3. Recharge when DC voltmeter reads
anywhere in the “recharge” area.
B. 120V AC charger adapter
1. Use only the charging adapter enclosed.
2. Do not operate the unit when charging
with the charging adapter.
C. Air Compressor
1. Check the battery voltage via the voltmeter on the front panel before use. If
the voltage drops below the green portion, recharge the unit before use.
2. Do not continue to operate the compressor when the voltage drops below the
green portion on the voltmeter.
3. Do not let the air compressor overheat.
Let the air compressor cool for 30 minutes after every 15 minutes of operation.
4. Only replace a fuse with one of the same
amperage, 15 A in this case.
5. Never operate or store the unit near fire,
flammable gas or liquid.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (see
page 2 illustration)
1. Turn on the unit by pushing the power
switch to ‘Power’.
2. Check the voltage of the battery on the

3. If the voltage pointer points below the
‘good’ condition, recharge the battery
according to the following steps:
AC 120V recharging (see page 2 illustration)
1. Push the power switch to “Recharge”.
2. Insert the power jack of the 120V AC
charger adapter into the AC charger
