Inflating the tire
WARNING! The greatest attention is called for when inflating the tires. Keep strictly to the
following instructions since the tire changer is NOT designed and built to protect (or anyone else
in the vicinity of the machine) if the tire bursts accidentally.
DANGER! A bust tire can cause serious injury or even death of the operator.
Check carefully that the wheel rim and the tire are of the same size.
Check the state of wear of the tire and that it has no defects before beginning the inflation.
Inflate the tire with brief jets of air, checking the pressure after every jet.
All our tire changers are automatically limited to a maximum inflating pressure of 3.5 bar (51 psi).
In any case NEVER EXCEEED THE PRESSURE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER.
Keep your hands and body as far away as possible from the tire.
If a higher inflating pressure is required remove the wheel from turntable and continue the
inflating procedure inside a special protection cage (commercially available).
ONLY special trained personnel are allowed to perform these operations. Do not allow other
persons to operate or to stay near the tire changer.
- Connect the airline gauge to the tire valve.
- Make a last check to be certain that tire and rim diameter correspond.
- Check to be certain that rim and beads are sufficiently lubricated. If necessary lubricate some
more.
- Seat the beads with short jets of air. Between air jets, check the air pressure on the inflator
gauge.
- Now put the inner air valve back in the air valve. Continue to inflate the tire with short jets of
air and constantly checking the pressure between until the required pressure has been
reached. Now turn the valve cap back on.
