RV1 Wheel Guardian™ Tire Changer
15
P/N 5900089 — Rev. A — March 2019
Once past the hole in the Base Plate, the Anchor Bolt eventually stops going down into the hole as
the Expansion Sleeve contacts the sides of the hole; this is normal.
5.
Hammer or mallet the Anchor Bolt the rest of the way down into the hole.
Stop when the Washer is snug against the Base Plate.
6.
Wrench each Nut
clockwise
to the recommended torque, 60 – 70 lbf-ft / 81 – 95 N-m.
Important
:
Do
not
use an impact wrench to torque the Anchor Bolts.
Wrenching the Nut forces the Wedge up, forcing out the Expansion Sleeve and pressing it tightly
against the Concrete.
Adjusting the Foot Pedal Covers
The Tire Changer has two Foot Pedal Covers, both shown in the drawing in the
Components
section.
During shipping, the eight bolts that hold the Foot Pedal Covers in place can get pushed up, the result
being that when you are ready to use the Tire Changer, the Foot Pedals do not work correctly.
To make sure this does not happen, you need to adjust the Foot Pedal Covers
before
you put the
Tire Changer into normal operation.
The eight bolts are all 6 mm hex bolts, so you will need a 6 mm hex wrench for this procedure.
Important
: Do not perform this procedure until
after
the Tire Changer is anchored in place, if you
are going to anchor it.
To adjust the Foot Pedal Covers:
1.
Loosen each of the eight 6 mm hex bolts that hold the Foot Pedal Covers in place.
It is not necessary to
remove
them, you just need to
loosen
them.
2.
Push the Foot Pedal Covers down so that the bottoms are on the ground.
3.
Tighten the eight 6 mm hex bolts.
