2. Assemble Tools and Supplies – Make certain all necessary tools (valve core remover, extra valves,
screws, hammer, screwdriver, pliers, bags, etc.) are on hand. If possible, stage the tires to be fi lled in
the vicinity of the pump.
3. Prepare Totes
a. Remove shipping cap. Remove foil if it is present.
b. Liberally grease the threads on the tote connector
and screw it onto the tote’s ball valve and hand
tighten.
(DO NOT TIGHTEN WITH A WRENCH)
c. Remove dust cap from kamlock on suction/
supply hose.
d. Apply grease to the tote connector and connect
the kamlock to the tote connector. Lock kamlock
in place by pulling back on the handles.
e. Connect the supply/suction hose to the king
combo on the intake side of the pump and tighten
hose clamp.
f. Repeat for both ISO- and CAT-sides.
4. Install Desiccant Cartridge – It is essential that a desiccant is used on the ISO-side tote as the
material is moisture sensitive. The CAT-side tote will need to be vented.
To Install the Desiccant Cartridge:
a. Remove the white 2" inch center bung on the ISO-
side tote.
b. Apply grease liberally to the threads on the
desiccant holder. This will make removal easier.
c. Remove the seal on ends of the desiccant
canister.
d. Loosen top hose clamp on desiccant sleeve and
insert desiccant container with inspection window
facing forward and the arrow pointing down.
e. Tighten hose clamp.
Note: It is essential to change the cartridge when the desiccant in the inspection window turns from
blue to pink, as moisture will contaminate the material.
5. Connect Hoses – Connect 1 ½" clear supply hoses from the pump to the tote connectors. Make
certain that the ISO-side hose is connected to the ISO-side tote and that the CAT-side hose to the
CAT-side tote. Fully open ball valves when pumping. Ball valves should be closed when not in use.
6. Air Supply – Connect air-line to the pump. Adjust the regulator to 80 psi (550 kPa). Note: Adjusting
the regulator to higher pressures provides only a modest increase in pump speed. Higher pressures
increase the risk of premature air motor failure. The easiest way to increase the speed on the pump is
to fi ll the tires through the largest valve stem possible. A tire with an air-water valve can be fi lled up to
2 times faster than a tire with a standard valve.
