5.4 – OPERATING MODES
The
“

”
tyre changer has two operating modes:
1.
Automatic mode, with two variations:
‘Rim touch’
‘Tyre touch’
2.
Manual mode.
5.4.1 – Automatic mode
The
“
RASE.TOP.4028
”
tyre changer can be operated in automatic mode in one of two ways:
a)
‘Rim touch’: the upper bead breaker and the lower bead breaker move toward the tyre
until touching against the rim’s outer edge
b)
‘Tyre touch’:
the operator uses levers 2 and 5 (ref. fig. 6) to bring the upper bead breaker
and lower bead breaker to touch the respective beads of the tyre.
To choose option (a) or option (b), the operator has to press the appropriate button on the touch
screen (‘RIM TOUCH’ or ‘TYRE TOUCH’, respectively)
A series of flashing frames around the touch screen buttons guide the automatic mode tyre
removal procedure: the flashing icon lets the operator know the button has to be pressed to move
on to the removal cycle.
When the upper and lower bead breakers come into contact with the edge of the rim [option (a)]
or with the beads of the tyre [option (b)], the machine performs the tyre removal cycle
automatically.
