NOTES : If the tyre has an inner tube, after detaching the upper bead, tilt the operating
arms into “non-working” position and remove the inner tube before proceeding to demount
the lower bead.
The rotation of the turntable can be stopped at any time by releasing the pedal.
To rotate in the opposite direction, simply raise up the pedal.
- Lift the second bead manually on the head, then rotate the turntable clockwise until
the tyre has been completely demounted from the rim.
- Move the operating arms to the “non-working” position.
WARNING
If the tyre has an inner tube, after demounting the upper bead, tilt the column
back and remove the inner tube before proceeding to demount the lower bead.
Turntable rotation can be stopped at any moment by releasing the drive pedal.

9.6. WHEEL MOUNTING
DANGER
RISK OF EXPLOSION. Always check that the tyre/rim combination is correct in
terms of compatibility (tubeless tyre on tubeless rim, tyre type with inner tube
on rim for inner tube) and geometric dimension (shrinkage diameter, width cross
section, off-set and shoulder profile) before mounting.
AVOID THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURIES OR DEATH.
Also check that the rims are not deformed, that their fastening holes have not
become oval, that they are not encrusted or rusted and that they have no sharp
burrs on the valve holes.
Check that the tyre is in good condition with no signs of damage.
- Before you start with tyre mounting operations, lubri -
cate the beads (fig.25).
Lubricated beads require less force to mount and are
protected against damage.
- Check that the tyre is in good condition with no signs
of damage.
- Adjust the tyre on the rim and take the operating arms
into the working position.
- Position the bottom bead (fig.26) beneath the right
hand side of the tool head.
Press the turntable control pedal (D) to rotate clockwise and mount the bead. Use the
rim channel by pressing on the right wall of the tyre to reduce traction force on the bead
as the wheel rotates (fig.26).
