Operation
WARNING
The optional air/hydraulic pump is capable of generating fluid pressure up to 10,000 PSI. Keep both
hands on the handles and away from the clamping jaw or breaker tongue. Make certain that the tool is
properly aligned on the rim before allowing the bead breaking action. Do not continue to operate the air/
hydraulic pump once the breaker rod is completely extended. Failure to comply with these instructions
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
To operate the bead breaker:
1.
Make certain the tire is completely deflated. Using rubber lubricant, lubricate the area where you
plan to break the bead.
2. Connect the hose of an air/hydraulic pump to the hydraulic coupling on the bead breaker tool. Con-
nect the air supply line to the air/hydraulic pump. The air supply should be between 5 and 10 CFM at
100 PSI to obtain proper operating characteristics. In addition, the air line should be equipped with
an air line filter.
