First time here? Just follow this page and you will be fine.

Check before you start

For blowing water out of tight spaces

  • Turn ON the switch near the pillar
  • Switch on the air compressor unit itself.
  • Squeeze the air gun to check that air comes out.
  • Check your surroundings and where the hose is before you start.

Wait for the tank to fill

The unit may be quiet and still be operating normally.

When the tank is full, the air compressor stops automatically. It starts again on its own once you use some air and the pressure drops.

How to use the air compressor

Follow the steps from start to finish.

1

Pull out the hose and use it

A quick tug locks the hose in place. Pull out as much as you need and blow the water off.

  • Make sure the hose does not hit your feet or the car body.
  • Use short bursts on the spots you need.

Guide it back slowly and hang it on the S-hook

Another quick tug starts the hose retracting. Letting go suddenly is dangerous — keep holding the hose and let it retract slowly. Then hang it on the S-hook on the wall.

  • If it snaps back, it can scratch your car.
  • For your safety, keep your hand on the hose until it is fully retracted.
