Q: what is the connection style for the air hose? I know is not M style I have some of those and they don't fit.
9 years ago
1 Answer
A: 199-8493 includes an extended coiled air hose inside. It has to use an extended coiled air hose to inflate tires. Connect the air hose on the product to the quick connect coupler on the extended coiled hose, and then connect the extended coiled hose to the tires for inflating. Please note you cannot connect the air hose on the product to the tires directly.

Q: Is this suitable for bicycle tire (50-65 psi)?. If so, does it have a built-in pressure gauge?
10 years ago
1 Answer
A: 199-8493 can inflate the bicycle, however, we don’t recommend it. See below explanation from the vendor:
The volume of the bicycle tire is small while the displacement of the twin cylinder compressor 199-8493 is big.
So 199-8493 can inflate the bicycle tire in vey short time, within 30 seconds. If the user does not turn off quickly, it will easily blow out the tire. We suggest to choose a single cylinder air compressor for bicycle tire, like 009-5006,009-5026.
