TireMinder RV AIR Compressor Installation Guide

TireMinder RV AIR Compressor Installation Guide

A highly effective and portable solution made to specifically address the air pressure requirements of recreational vehicles is the TireMinder RV Air Compressor. This air compressor is designed specifically for the high-volume tires found on RVs, trailers, and motorhomes because it understands the special requirements of maintaining the ideal tire pressure in larger vehicles. RV enthusiasts can save time and work by swiftly inflating tires to the proper pressure thanks to its powerful performance and sturdy design. The device is strong enough to meet the greater pressure needs of RV tires, which frequently demand more air pressure than regular car tires, while still being small enough to be easily stored in an RV. It is designed to be dependable and long-lasting, with an easy-to-read gauge and several nozzle adapters for adaptability. Any RV owner should have a TireMinder RV Air Compressor because it makes tire maintenance easy, accurate, and efficient, which improves driving efficiency and safety.

How to Use TireMinder RV

There are a few simple steps to using the TireMinder RV Air Compressor to make sure you pump your RV tires effectively and safely.

Here’s a brief usage guide for it:

1. Get the compressor ready:
   The TireMinder RV Air Compressor should first be removed from its storage place. Verify that it is in good working order and that all of the parts—including the power cable and hose—are whole and undamaged.
2. Providing Compressor Power:
   Usually, a 12V power supply powers the compressor. It can be connected to a suitable power source or the 12V plug on your RV.
   Before starting the compressor, make sure the connection is tight.
3. Connecting to the Tire:
   Find the tire valve on the tire of your RV. Fit the tire valve with the compressor’s nozzle. To stop air leaks, make sure the connection is tight.
4. Determining the Ideal Pressure:
   The recommended tire pressure should be found on the tire sidewall or in your RV’s handbook before you inflate.
   Set the compressor’s pressure gauge, if it has one, to the suggested setting. If not, keep a spare tire gauge close at hand so you can monitor the pressure while you inflate.
5. Putting Air in the Tire:
   Click the compressor to begin the inflation process. Keep a watchful eye on the pressure gauge. Once the required pressure is attained, you will need to manually shut off your compressor if it doesn’t have an automatic shut-off.
6. Verifying Tire Pressure:
   Periodically shut off the compressor and use a different tire gauge to check the pressure in your tires. To get the right pressure, adjust the inflation as needed.
7. Cutting the Compressor Off:
   Switch off the compressor once the tire has reached the proper pressure. Making sure no air leaks out of the tire valve, carefully remove the nozzle from it.
8. Pumping Up Extra Tires:
   For every tire that requires inflation, repeat the procedure.
9. Check of Post-Inflation:
   Make a fast visual inspection to make sure all tires are correctly inflated and leak-free after inflating them. Tires can adjust somewhat when used, therefore it’s a good idea to check the pressure again after a short drive.
10. How to Store the Compressor:
    After finishing, wind the power cord and hose properly.

For later use, keep the compressor somewhere dry and clean.
Recall that keeping the proper tire pressure is essential to your RV’s efficiency and safety. Make sure your tires are properly inflated, especially before lengthy journeys. For more detailed instructions or troubleshooting unique to your TireMinder RV Air Compressor model, consult the user handbook. Do not hesitate to seek professional advice if you run into any problems or have questions about the procedure.

Initial Setup

Use the following directions to set up your Tire Minder RVAIR™ Compressor. If at any time you need assistance, please reach out to our award-winning support team at (772) 463-6522 or through www.tireminder.com.

• Step 1: Screw on Air Intake Filter
  Remove the included air filter and screw the air filter into the side of the compressor. The air filter should be hand-tight only. Do not over tighten. Please note, that you will need to replace the air filter every 9 to 14 months, depending on usage.
• Step 2: Connect the Braided Steel Air Hose to the Green Air Hose
  Connect the braided steel hose to either the extender or the main hose using the springloaded connectors. If you are using the extension hose, you may connect the main hose and extension hose together at this time.
  • WARNING The braided steel hose must be used in between the green hose(s) and the compressor. Failure to do so may cause the green hose(s) to warp and/or leak. Warping and/or leaking of green hoses) are not a manufacturer’s defect and will not be covered by the warranty.
• Step 3: Connect Braided Steel Air Hose to Compressor
  Connect the braided steel hose to the compressor using the spring-loaded connector.
• Step 4: Connect Air Hose to Inflator Gauge
  Connect the main hose to the digital inflator gauge using the spring-loaded connectors. If you are using the extension hose, you may connect the main hose and extension hose together at this time. You should also add the 2 included AAA batteries to the rear of the gauge at this time. If the batteries are not installed, the numbers will not update!
• Step 5: Attach Alligator Clips to Your Vehicle’s
  Battery – VEHICLE OFF & 12V ONLY With your vehicle off, connect the compressor’s alligator clips to your vehicle’s corresponding battery terminals, Red on Positive (+), Black on Negative (-). To reduce the chance of electric shock, please turn off your vehicle and make sure the compressor is in the off position. Failure to do so may produce shocking results. When connecting to a battery, this compressor must be connected to only a 12V power source. If using on a Motorhome, connect to your engine or chassis battery. Do not connect the compressor to a series of batteries. Connect to only 1 battery.
• Step 6: Turn Your Vehicle On
  Due to the high amp draw of this compressor, your vehicle must be on while the compressor is running. Running this compressor while your battery is off will quickly drain and/or damage your battery. Once your vehicle is on, you are ready to move onto the next step.
• Step 7: Turn Your Compressor On
  With your vehicle on, it is now time to turn on the compressor. Do so by using the red on and off switch on the side of the compressor. Once on, the compressor will run for a few seconds to pressurize.
  • Note: When you are done using the air compressor, turn the air compressor off and use the included air inflator gauge to remove the air from the compressor. This should take no more than 10 seconds and will greatly increase the life of your compressor.
• Step 8: Screw Inflator Gauge onto the Valve Stem
  Screw the inflator’s gauge chuck onto the valve stem you wish to inflate. While screwing on the air chuck, you will hear a puff of air from your valve stem. This is normal as some air will pass out of the valve stem while attaching or removing the air chuck.
  • Note: When you are done using the air compressor, turn the air compressor off and use the included air inflator gauge to remove the air from the compressor. This should take no more than 10 seconds and will greatly increase the life of your compressor.
• Step 9: Start Inflating Your Tire
  With the inflator gauge securely hand-tightened to your valve stem, you may now use the trigger to add air to your tire. To view the current air pressure in your tire, release the trigger. The pressure shown is within 10.5 PSI of accuracy. Continue to add air to your tire until you have reached your desired pressure.
  • WARNING Do not overinflate your tires. Overinflating your tires can cause serious injury or death.
  • REMINDER: When you are done using the air compressor, turn the air compressor off and use the included air inflator gauge to remove the air from the compressor. This should take no more than 10 seconds and will greatly increase the life of your compressor.
