How do I fill the tank up with air? Do I need special tools? Where can I go?

Most gas stations have a coin operated air fill station. The air fill station/ air compressor will have a chuck on the end of the air line to fill the tank with. Some buyers have a super large compressor which is too heavy to carry so they buy this small tank to fill to carry. Thanks Thomas

You need access to an air compressor. They used to be common, at service stations, which also used to be common. Tire stores or auto repair businesses are likely possibilities. If you don't own a compressor, you might buy one, or try one of those 12-volt tire inflators, or ask neighbors if they have know of someone with a compressor. Once you have a source of compressed air, simply connect it to the tire-valve-looking thingy on the brass fitting attached to the tank, and fill to no more than than the maximum amount called for in the manual that came with the tank.

If you don't have a compressor with a tire filling attachment, you can always go to a gas station with a tire station for filling you car's tires. Or you can fill it up with a tire pump which would be tiring! I use my compressor!

I am running this for a 15 gallon system and it isn't anywhere near enough. I just ordered a new one myself. You have at least 170 gallons. You can never have too much air, go to the full blown big commercial one and you won't be sorry that you did. You might spend 80 to $100 dollars now, but trust me, if you have that many tanks already, you will ultimately need it anyways.

Chances are you have air in the line for your input. Try either filling the canister up with water beforehand or use the hose you use to fill your tank to force water into the input once you'be turned it on.

We just blew it up with lip power! If you wanted to use a pump, I would suggest the type used to inflate air mattresses. just leave inflated and hang at end of tub to store. The included suction cup hook is too weak to hold tub,Replaced it with a better hook that works well.

Easily, I have it in a 60 gallon. You only need some air not a huge amount.

You can fill it up either way, just make sure you keep an eye on the gauge and slow down when almost full, kind of hard to move when full though, I just fill it with a five gallon tank and make a few trips.

This unit comes already pressurized. If you have an older unit, just use a bicycle air pump to increase the pressure inside. If there is a leak in the bladder, only option is to replace the tank. Note that I am not an expert on this matter - just expressing opinion from my experience.....best regards.

Put a bottle and a half in when your tank is almost empty. Then fill the tank. That would be enough.

Add a gas stablilizer to the gas.....sea foam is a great additive ! Once a month stRt up the generator and plug something into it and let it run about 5 mins. You don't need to drain gas if you use a stabilizer .....if you don't, keep tank topped off.

Very easy. Just attach a hose to the larger opening, and one to the top small opening. The large one is for the water in. The small is for the air out. Purchase a water intake from an RV store. It most have both water intake and the air out connection. Attached the hoses with hoses clamps and you are ready to fill the tank.

With a hose and proper fittings, you could probably connect a bellows to the tank. Not sure how much pressure you be able to achieve, though.

Lift off the tank where there is a cap on the bottom to fill. It can be quite difficult to unscrew at times, and difficult to return to the machine as the handle is poorly designed.

you need a compressor with a minimum of a 5 gallon storage tank on it. Its not the pressure but the volume you need.

You can't refill the co2 tank with air you must have it refilled with co2. If you use high pressure air tank it must be refilled with a scuba tank or a high pressure compressor. Can't use an ordinary home or shop compressor.
