Adapter Functions (Fig. 6)
• The tapered adapter can be used on smaller air valves to
inflate items like floats and children's toys, which usually
require the user to inflate them by blowing air into them.
• The sport ball needle can be used to inflate any type of
sports ball or any other item that requires a sport ball needle.
• The Presta valve adapter can be used to inflate Presta valve
stem tires as shown. Before inflating a tire with a Presta
valve, loosen the locking nut to inflate. Once inflation is
complete, tighten the locking nut to seal the tire valve.
