●
After 3/4 of the bead has been installed, check the bead
on the opposite side. Be sure it is still in the center of
the rim.
·
The last portion of the bead is more difficult to
install. The rim and bead may be damaged if the
bead on the opposite side of the point where you are
working is not in the rim center.
●
When the remaining bead is only 50~60mm, pull the
two levers up and over.
●
Apply a mild detergent solution to the bead again.
·
Use only water as a lubricant when removing or
mounting tires. Soap or other tire lubricants may
leave a slippery residue which can cause the tire to
shift on the rim.
●
Tap on the tire tread surface with a rubber hammer so
that the tire and rim fit evenly around the
circumference.
●
Be sure that the tire center and rim center are aligned.
●
Inflate the tire to 1.5 times the standard recommended
pressure to seat the bead on the rim.
·
Use the tire pressures specified in the Model Specific
manual or on the tire label. Overinflation may cause
a tire to burst with sufficient force to result in serious
injury or death.
