are covered. To repair the tube with the MSW Patch Kit, see instructions
below this section.
2. Install one side of the tire onto the rim.
3. Inflate tube slightly so that it is round but smaller than the tire.
To slightly inflate the tube with the MSW WindStream Inflator Head

cartridges, see instructions below this section.
4. Insert tube valve into the valve hole on the rim. Install lock nut onto the
valve, leave loose against the rim.
5. Push tube into the partially installed tire. Ensure the tube is not twisted.
Valve should be perpendicular to the rim.
6. Carefully push the loose tire sidewall over the rim lip, starting opposite of
the valve. Do not pinch tube between the rim and tire. Work around the tire
until the tire is fully installed. If unable to install the tire by hand, use a tire
lever to gain leverage. Do not to pinch the tube or damage the rim with
a tire lever.
7. Visually inspect the space between the tire sidewall and both sides of the
rim by squeezing the tire. Make sure the tube is not pinched between the
rim and tire.
8. Inflate tube so that it is pressing against the tire in all locations and then
repeat Step 7.

deflate the tube, and repeat. Inflate the tube until the tire bead is fully
seated on the rim.
10. Adjust pressure to the pressure limit indicated on the tube or the tire,
whichever is less.
