STAGE FOUR / TIRE INFLATION
1. Make sure both beads are seated. When both beads are
seated, the tire is ready for inflation.
2. Replace the valve core if it was removed.
3. Depress the inflation pedal to position two to inflate the
tire.
DO NOT STAND OVER TIRE DURING INFLATION.
4. Do not inflate the tire above the manufacturer's
recommended pressure as stamped on the tire sidewall.
The typical inflation pressure for automobile tires is between
24 and 45 PSI. Light truck inflation pressure typically covers
a wider range. Release air pressure from the tire by
pressing the manual release valve button.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all the maintenance instructions provided in
this manual to keep the machine in good operating
condition. Regular inspections and proper maintenance are
essential to preventing accidents and injuries. These
instructions will help you service the unit. Instructions are for
a person with some mechanical ability and training. No
attempt has been made to describe all basic steps like how
to loosen or tighten fasteners. Basic procedures such as
cycling systems and checking operation of the equipment
are not fully described since they are described in this
manual. Do not attempt to perform work beyond your ability
or at which you have no experience. If you need assistance,
call an authorized service center or contact the factory.
DAILY
Check the tire pressure gauge function daily, and check
the accuracy monthly. Use a pressurized tire and a high
quality stick-type pressure gauge. If necessary, adjust the
dial of the machine gauge. If the gauge is defective, replace
it immediately.
Make sure all fasteners are securely tightened and all
guards and covers are in place.
Check for worn, damaged or missing parts including
grips and protective covers. Replace them before allowing
the unit to be used.
IMPORTANT
When inflating tires that require more than 60
PSI, always use a safety cage and air hose with
a clip-on air chuck and in-line valve. The hose
must have enough length between the chuck
and the operation/in-line valve to allow the
operator to stand outside the trajectory.
THE INFLATION PRESSURE LIMITER IS PRE-SET
AT THE FACTORY AND SHOULD NEED NO
ADJUSTMENT. ADJUST ONLY IF PRESSURE
EXCEEDS 60 PSI. Operating a tire changer with a
defective, improperly adjusted, or by-passed
pressure limiter could result in a tire explosion with
severe injury or death to the operator or
bystanders. Always be sure that the pressure
limiter is operating properly on the machine at all
times. Pressure limiter is set at 60 PSI. Any
required inflation above 60 PSI should be
performed in an inflation chamber/safety cage.
A tire explosion may cause personal injury or
death to operator or bystanders.
Before making any inspection, adjustment, or
repair, disconnect the power source and block
out all moving parts to prevent injury.
Keep the machine and the immediate work
area clean. Do not use compressed air to remove
dirt and debris from the machine. Foreign
material may be propelled into the air and into
operator or bystander causing personal injury.
Wear protective clothing and use eye
protection when making any adjustments or
repairs to the machine.
