FAQs
What types of valves does this pump work with?
The Topeak Joe Blow Sport EX Floor Pump works with both Presta and Schrader valves thanks to its SmartHead design.
How do I attach the pump head to the valve?
Simply place the SmartHead onto the valve and engage the lever to secure the connection. For Presta valves, the valve core may need to be loosened slightly before inflation.
How do I read the pressure gauge?
The gauge is located at the base of the pump and is clearly marked in psi and bar. Read the needle to determine the current tire pressure.
What is the maximum pressure this pump can handle?
The pump can inflate tires up to 120 psi / 8 bar.
How should I store the floor pump?
Store the pump in a dry place to prevent corrosion and damage. It is recommended to keep it away from direct sunlight.
Can I replace the hose if it gets damaged?
Yes, replacement hoses are available. Contact the manufacturer or a local bike shop to purchase a replacement.
How often should I check my tire pressure?
It's recommended to check your tire pressure before each ride or at least once a week to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Troubleshooting
Pump does not inflate the tire.
Check that the pump head is securely attached to the valve and that the valve core is not blocked. Inspect the hose for leaks.
Pressure gauge is inaccurate.
Compare the gauge reading with a known accurate gauge and, if necessary, replace the pump.
Pump head leaks air.
Ensure the pump head is correctly seated on the valve and that the valve core is tightened. Check for any damage to the pump head.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Valve Compatibility: The SmartHead is designed to work with both Presta and Schrader valves.
Initial Setup: Ensure the pump is stable on a flat surface before use.
Inflation Process: Attach the pump head to the valve and pump until the gauge reads the desired pressure.
Gauge Calibration: The gauge is generally accurate but should be compared to a known accurate gauge periodically.
Care and Maintenance: Wipe down the pump after each use. Store in a dry place. Check the hose and pump head for any signs of wear and tear.
Storage: The pump's dimensions are 66 x 24.5 x 18cm / 26" x 9.6" x 7.1". Ensure you have adequate storage space.
