Tire Demounting
Once the bead loosening process is completed, and the wheel is already positioned on the clamping chuck,
check and ensure its locked and centered.
Upper Bead Demounting
Bring the tilting tower close to the wheel by pressing pedal
1
, while simultaneously placing the mounting tool
over the rim edge using the handle (fig. 1). Set the locking button
19
to position 1 (fig. 2) to lower the
operating arm, then lock everything by setting the locking button in position 2. In this way the mounting tool will
automatically move to the right distance from the rim, at about 2 mm.
Rotate the clamping chuck by pressing pedal
2
until the valve is in the
“1 o’clock”
position (roughly 10 cm dis-
tance from the mounting tool) in order to avoid possible damages to the valve or pressure sensor - if equipped.
Lower the lever
20
to insert the mounting tool between the bead and the rim edge. The mounting tool should
penetrate enough to hook the tire bead to let the operator complete the tire demounting.
Slowly spin the clamping chuck until the mounting tool is positioned correctly. This will facilitate mounting tool
penetration and tire hooking.
By gently pushing the lower bead loosener disk against the tire lower sidewall and the pneumatic bead pressing
arm against the upper sidewall at the
“6 o’clock”
position, it will be easier to fit the tool into position (fig. 4).
As soon as the bead is perfectly hooked, lift the mounting tool using the
lever
20
to pull out the bead.
To make the lifting easier, set the bead pressing arm at
“6 o’clock”
position and press the sidewall (fig. 4) using pneumatic bead pressing
arm.
Press down pedal
2
to rotate the wheel clockwise until the upper bead is
completely off the wheel rim.
NOTE:
Rim and Tire must spin together as one. To help the upper bead off
the Rim and reduce the stress to the Tire, insert the plastic lever
(fig. 5) and spin the wheel clockwise while lifting the tire with the lower
bead loosener disk.
