Is There a Video that Shows How to Operate Tru-Flate Wall-Mounted Tire Inflator # 16-250  

Question:

Have not been able to inflate my bike tires with the Truflate compressor. First of all, my co-op purchased multiple units for each building in the complex. After watching the video, I calibrated the compressor to 80 ips, turned it on, and pressed the nozzle to the opening on my tire. The tire did not inflate, and I felt a stream of air gush out of the nozzle. Is there an additional attachment I was supposed to use, or is there something I'm not doing right? Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Yes, I attached a link to this page that details how to install and use the Tru-Flate Wall-Mounted Tire Inflator # 16-250 you referenced. It shows how to properly connect the air chuck to the valve stem as well as set tire pressure etc.

You have to really push the nozzle onto the valve stem to allow it to push down the pin of the valve stem and inflate air. You also have to make sure that the nozzle is perfectly square to the valve stem as well.
