TO PRELIMINARY OPERATING TESTS
STEP 1:
Connect the tire changer to its air and electrical supply sources, and allow adequate
time for the compressed air system to reach the recommended 150-PSI.
STEP 2:
Depress the Reverse Pedal (3, Fig2) down; the turntable should turn in a clockwise
direction. Pull the pedal up and the turntable should turn anticlockwise.
STEP 3:
Press the bead breaker pedal (1, Fig2) to activate the paddle.
When the pedal is released. The pedal should return to its original position.
STEP 4:
Press the jaw clamp pedal (2, Fig.2) once to open the four jaws.
Press the pedal again to close the jaws.
TO BREAK TIRE BEAD:
CAUTION:
Before you attempt to break the bead, the tire must be deflated fully.
This can be done by removing the valve core and allowing all the air to escape.
Remember that old tire/wheel assemblies and “junk yard” rims require special
considerations. The bead breaker system is very powerful, but certain older rims may
have been galled to the tires and it may be difficult for these “beads to be broken”.
Rust penetrating fluid will help to “loosen” the wheel and tire assembly before the
bead breaker is used. Frozen tires will also present a unique “bead breaking”
experience and care must be used when dealing with frozen wheel assemblies. All
wheel weights should be removed before breaking the bead or changing the tire.
STEP 1:
Close the turntable clamping jaws completely (Fig. 3). This will prevent tires from
striking the turntable slides during the bead breaking process.
