SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
The inflator may be used for the following applications.
■
Inflating high pressure items like motorbike/car/bicycle tyres and
sport equipment.
■
Inflating low pressure items like air mattresses, pool inflatables
and rafts.
Do not use the product for any other purpose.
BATTERIES
Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be
recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of
the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk
of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully charged,
after used.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack
from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
• Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C and
away from moisture.
• Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition.
• Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack
or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or
conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and
bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.
Ambient temperature range for battery during use is between 0°C
and 40°C.
Ambient temperature range for battery storage is between 0°C and
27°C.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation
requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with
local, national and international provisions and regulations.
■
The user can transport the batteries by road without further
requirements.
■
Commercial transport of lithium-ion batteries by third parties is
subject to Dangerous Goods regulations. Transport preparation
and transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately
trained persons and the process has to be accompanied by
corresponding experts.
When transporting batteries:
■
Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and insulated
to prevent short circuit.
■
Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement within
packaging.
■
Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.
Check with forwarding company for further advice.
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION
The battery pack has overload protection that protects it from being
overloaded and helps to ensure long life. Under extreme stress the
battery electronics switch off the product automatically. To restart,
switch the product off and then on again. If the product does not start
up again, the battery pack may have discharged completely. In this
case it must be recharged in the battery charger.
THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Overheated cells will reduce performance, run time and life.
Overheating can occur from battery packs being exposed to very hot
environments or from the tool they are powering being over-worked.
