FAQs
What is the pressure range of this gauge?
The gauge displays pressure from 5 to 100 PSI and 0 to 7 BAR.
Does this gauge require batteries?
No, this is a manual, mechanical tyre pressure gauge and does not require batteries.
How do I use the air release valve?
The air release valve is a small button or lever on the gauge body. Press it gently to release air from the tyre in small increments until the desired pressure is reached.
What type of valve does the connection fit?
The swivel angled tyre connection is designed to fit standard Schrader valves.
Can I use this gauge for bicycle tyres?
Yes, as long as the bicycle tyres use Schrader valves and the required pressure is within the gauge's 5-100 PSI range.
How long is the hose?
The hose is 300mm (approximately 12 inches) long.
Troubleshooting
Gauge does not read any pressure.
Ensure the swivel angled connection is firmly seated on the tyre valve. Check that the tyre valve itself is functioning correctly and not stuck in a closed position. Inspect the hose for any leaks.
Air is leaking when attached to the valve.
The swivel angled connection may not be fully sealed. Try re-attaching it with more pressure, ensuring it's perpendicular to the valve. If the leak persists, the seal within the connection may be damaged and require replacement.
Readings seem inaccurate.
Ensure the gauge is being held straight onto the valve stem. If you suspect persistent inaccuracy, compare its readings with another known accurate gauge. Prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can affect readings; allow the gauge to stabilize at ambient temperature.
