Follow these steps for effective and safe tire inflation:
- Prepare the Tire Valve:
- For Presta valves, unscrew the valve core lock nut counter-clockwise until it is loose. Press down briefly on the valve core to release a small amount of air and ensure it is not stuck.
- For Schrader valves, no special preparation is typically needed.
- Attach the Chuck:
- Select the appropriate chuck (Presta or Schrader).
- Firmly press the chuck onto the tire valve until it is fully seated. Ensure a tight seal to prevent air leakage.
