5.
Work the Mount/Demount Bar (14) all the way around the Center Post (1) to
demount the bead completely.
6.
Pull the tire up toward the top of the bead. Place the flat end of the
Mount/Demount Bar (14) between the tire and the rim as before. Then, repeat
the process to remove the tire from the rim completely.
7.
Repair the tire. Then, mount the tire back on the rim and set the tire on top of
the rim.
8.
Hook the end of the Mount/Demount Bar (14) over the edge of the rim.
9.
Push the tire forward over the edge of the rim at the place the Mount/Demount
Bar (14) is.
10.
Position the bead so it will slide across the flat portion of the hook end of the
Mount/Demount Bar (14).
11.
Press down on the tire with one hand against the rim. With the other hand, pull
the Mount/Demount Bar (14) clockwise around the Center Post (1) until the bead
starts to mount on the rim. It should only have to move a few inches before you
can let go of the tire and use both hands on the Mount/Demount Bar.
12.
Continue around the rim until the tire mounts over the edge of the bead. Repeat
this procedure on the second bead to completely mount the tire.
13.
IMPORTANT: If the tire bead starts to seat while you are mounting the tire, the
tire will need to stretch more and will be more difficult to mount. To prevent this,
push down on the tire so it doesn’t seat on the upper edge of the rim during
mounting.
14.
NOTE: The bead running across the top of the Mount/Demount Bar (14) keeps
the Bar hooked on the edge of the rim. The tire bead will run across the top (flat
part of the mounting end of the Bar) and against the curved Wheel Lug Peg (3)
when mounting the tire on the rim.
ATV Tires:
1.
NOTE: ATV tires are difficult to demount and mount because of their small
diameter. Additionally, the tires are soft and bend easily when breaking the bead.
2.
If the Bead Breaker Shoe (10) slides off the tire, hold the Shoe in place and work
around the rim breaking the bead a little at a time.
3.
Place lubricant between the tire and rim to make it slide off easier.
