OPENING/CLOSING MOVEMENT
OF THE SELF-CENTRING MAN-
DREL CAN GENERATE DANGER
OF SQUASHING, CUTTING, COM-
PRESSING. DURING WHEEL
LOCKING/UNLOCKING PHASE,
AVOID THAT PARTS OF HUMAN
BODY COME INTO CONTACT WITH
MOVING PARTS OF THE MACHINE.
All wheels must be clamped from the inside.
Clamping on the central flange is always safest.
NOTE: for wheels with grooved rims secure the
wheel so the groove is facing outward compared to
the mandrel.
If it is not possible to clamp the rim in the hole of the
disc, clamp on the bead seat close to the disc.
TO SECURE WHEELS WITH ALLOY RIMS ADDI-
TIONAL PROTECTIVE JAWS ARE AVAILABLE.
THEY ALLOW YOU TO WORK ON THE RIMS
WITHOUT DAMAGING THEM. THE PROTEC-
TIVE JAWS ARE FITTED ONTO THE MANDREL’S
NORMAL JAWS BY MEANS OF A BAYONET
CONNECTION.
To clamp the wheel proceed as follows:
- Move the tool holder arm to “off-work” position
(
Fig. 20 ref. 1
);
- Move the movable footboard (
Fig. 1-2-3-4 ref. 20
)
outside. Make the wheel rotate on the same foot-
board;
- Place the lock mandrel (
Fig. 1-2-3-4 ref. 5
) approxi-
mately in the centre of the wheel; move the footboard
towards the mandrel and centre the wheel on it, in
the most suitable position using the corresponding
control levers;
- Adjust the opening of the self-centring chuck through
the corresponding control (
Fig. 11 ref. A, Fig. 14
ref. B and Fig. 15 ref. B
) according to the type of
rim to be locked;
- Lock the rim with the lock mandrel (
Fig. 1-2-3-4
ref. 5
);
- Make sure the rim is always correctly locked and
centred, and the wheel is lifted from the machine
platform, in order to prevent the rim from slipping
in the following operations.
KEEP ON OPERATING RIM CLAMP-
ING CONTROL, UNTIL REACHING
THE MAXIMUM OPERATING PRES-
SURE (170 BAR), WHICH CAN BE
CHECKED THROUGH THE PREAR-
RANGED PRESSURE GAUGE.
DURING ALL TYRES MOUNTING AND DE-
MOUNTING OPERATIONS, THE SELF-CEN-
TRING CHUCK ROTATION SPEED CAN BE
DOUBLED BY ROTATING THE SELECTOR (FIG.
10A-10B-10C-10D REF. C). LOW SPEED IS
RECOMMENDED FOR WHEELS WITH GREAT
DIAMETER AND WEIGHT.
THE CAREFUL LUBRICATION OF THE TYRES
BEADS IS RECOMMENDED, IN ORDER TO PRO-
TECT THEM FROM POSSIBLE DAMAGES AND
TO FACILITATE MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING
OPERATIONS.
