Safety Warnings and Precautions
WARNING: When using tool, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to equipment.
Read all instructions before using this tool!
1. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. Observe work area conditions. Do not use machines or power tools in damp or wet
locations. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well lit. Do not use electrically
powered tools in the presence of flammable gases or liquids.
3. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let
them handle machines, tools, extension cords, or air hoses.
4. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to
inhibit rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.
5. Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to
do the work of a larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this tool
was designed. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was
intended. Do not modify this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it
was not intended.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in
moving parts. Protective, electrically nonconductive clothes and nonskid footwear are
recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.
7. Use eye protection. Always wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles during use
and setup.
8. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or
across running machines or air hoses.
WARNING! Overinflation of Items May Cause an Explosion!

periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by a qualified technician.
10. Disconnect power supply. Disconnect clamps when not in use.
11. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the switch is in the Off position when not in
use and before connecting to the battery. Do not carry any tool with your finger on the

12. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool
when you are tired.
13. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts
or mounting fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician.
Do not use the tool if any switch does not turn On and Off properly.
14. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.

Unpacking
When unpacking, check to make sure the parts listed on page 7 are included. If any parts
are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this
manual as soon as possible.
Operation
Warning!! This Air Compressor becomes extremely hot during operation. Do not
touch any part of the Air Compressor during operation other than the Switch (34).
Note: If the Air Compressor becomes too hot, it will activate an automatic thermal
protector, shutting down the unit. If that happens, switch the power off and wait
until the unit becomes cool (at least 15 minutes) to restart it.
Note: We strongly recommend keeping your vehicles engine running during operation
so as not to deplete your vehicle battery. Only operate your vehicle’s engine in a
well-ventilated area. Your vehicle produces carbon monoxide, an odorless,
colorless gas, during operation; carbon monoxide inhalation can result in serious
illness or death.
Warning!! Only operate the Air Compressor on a level, stable platform. Do not place
The Air Compressor on sandy or dusty ground.
Inflation
1. Warning!! Make sure the Switch (34) is in the OFF position.
2. Attach the Red (+) Battery Clamp to the Positive (+) terminal of your 12 volt battery.
3. Attach the Black (–) Battery Clamp to the Negative (–) terminal of your 12 volt battery.
4. Start the vehicle’s engine and keep it running throughout the process. See carbon
monoxide warning above.
5. Attach the Quick Coupler to the Air Compressor. See FIGURE 1 below.

Operation (continued)
To fill sporting balls or other inflatables (i.e. rafts), use the three tips shown above in
FIGURE 3. Simply attach the desired tip to the Brass Connector (See FIGURE 2)
7. Turn the Switch (34) to ON to begin inflation.
Note: You may experience a slight delay for the compressor motor to start back
up when the unit is pressurized. This is normal.
8. Fill to the item manufacturer’s recommended pressure. Risk of Explosion! Never
exceed 150 PSI or the working pressure of the item being inflated, whichever is
less.
9. Monitor the inflation progress with the inline gauge. Turn the Switch (34) to OFF when
the tire is full. To get the most accurate measurement, momentarily stop inflating.
10. Disconnect the Brass Connector as shown in FIGURE 2.
11. Disconnect the Red (+) Battery Clamp from the Positive (+) terminal of your 12 volt
battery.
12. Disconnect the Black (–) Battery Clamp from the Negative (–) terminal of your 12 volt
battery.
Note: If the Air Compressor becomes too hot, it will activate an automatic thermal
protector, shutting down the unit. If that happens, switch the power off and wait
until the unit becomes cool (at least 15 minutes) to restart it.
6. Thread the Brass Connector to the tire valve stem. See FIGURE 2 below.

Maintenance
Warning!! Never attempt any maintenance procedures when the unit is connected
to a 12 Volt power source. Give the Air Compressor ample time to cool before touching
the unit.
1. Before each use, make sure the Air Filter (14) is clean and clear of dust and debris.
Snap of the cover of the Air Filter (14) and visually inspect the Air Filter (14). If it is
minimally dirty, blow it off with a gentle burst of air. If it is too dirty to clean with a gentle
burst of air, replace the filter. Clogged air filters greatly reduce performance and increase
stress on the compressor.
2. Do not try to lubricate your Air Compressor. It comes with a permanently lubricated,
maintenance free motor.
3. If the unit stops working and won’t restart after it cools, check the fuse. If the 30 Amp
fuse on the Battery Clamp power lines blows out, simply snap off the lid of the fuse
holder, remove the fuse, and replace it. Snap the lid back on. See FIGURE 4.
