Mounting the tyre
- Place the tyre on the frame of the wheel lift 2 fig. 9a.
- Lubricate the tyre carefully along the whole circumference of the top and bottom beads
to simplify mounting and prevent damage to the beads (fig. 18). Lubricate with specific
products and do not use oily solutions containing hydrocarbons or silicones.
- Operate the Lever 7 fig. 9b to guide the tool head into the working zone to mount the
bottom bead. The tool to be used to mount the bottom bead on the rim is the fixed
tool 7 fig. 8a. Move the tool head forward to the limit position and raise the fixed tool
to the height of the rim’s top shoulder.
- Sliding it along the fixed tool (fig. 19) and moving the tyre by hand, fit part of the bottom
bead across the rim’s top shoulder into the drop centre. Maintaining a light pressure on
the part of the tyre where the bottom bead has not yet been fitted into the rim, press
gently on the
Pedal 1 fig. 9c. The downward pressure on the tyre and the rotation of the
wheel insert the bottom bead completely into the width of the rim.
- In tube type wheels, fit a new inner tube into the width of the rim. Connect the Doyfe
union of the inflation line 20 fig. 8b to the stem of the inner tube valve and inflate it
slightly by pressing the
Pedal 2 fig. 9c. During inflation, try to position the inner tube as
close as possible to its definitive position.
- Operate the
Lever
7 fig. 9b to guide the tool head into the working zone to mount the
top bead. While the head is moving push or pull the Switch 4 fig. 9b to prepare the fixed
tool 7 fig. 8a to mount the top bead. Move the fixed tool forward to the limit position
and lower it until it is between the rim’s top shoulder and the top bead of the tyre. The
fixed tool is in the correct vertical position when the mark on it, indicated by the groove,
is visible in line with the top edge of the rim’s shoulder - A fig. 20.
- Place the top bead breaker unit in the working position (axis of the arm horizontal) by
lowering it by hand using the fixed gripper lever provided. Operate the Lever 1 fig. 9b
so that the disc presses on the tyre. Lower the disc further, pushing the tyre beneath
the level of the shoulder (fig. 20).
- Apply the
bead pressing gripper(s)
1 fig. 20 to the rim’s shoulder to ensure that the top
bead remains inside the drop centre. To avoid possible risks if the bead comes away
suddenly, fasten the tie on the centring handle.
- Press the Pedal 1 fig . 9b. The bead breaker disc is lowered slightly and the wheel rotates,
completely inserting the top bead beyond the shoulder.
- Remove the
bead pressing gripper(s)
from the shoulder of the rim.
- Operate the Lever 7 fig. 9b to remove the fixed tool from the working area. The tool head
must be lifted away from the wheel and moved completely back.
- Operate the Lever 1 fig. 9b to return to entire bead breaker unit upward, removing it
from the working area. Also return the top bead breaker unit to the rest position by
operating the mobile lever 11 fig. 8a underneath the arm of the unit by hand from the
operator side.
