Upper Bead Mounting
Keep the mounting arm and the mounting tool in working position and proceed with mounting of the upper
bead, then put the tire bead on the rim slightly tilted down to
“3 o’clock”
position, so that the upper bead rests
on the left side and under the right side of the mounting tool (fig. 1).
Bead correctly positioned over the left side of the
mounting tool and under it on its right side.
Bead correctly positioned over the left side of the
mounting tool and under it on its right side, thus it
can be slightly lowered for easy tire mounting.
Press the pedal
