5.4 Beading the tires
Beading means the initial grip of the tire bead on the
rim, in order to allow the inflation operations and
subsequent settling in the seat on the rim.
Safety Precautions:
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE TIRE CHANGER TO
INFLATE TIRES.
COMPRESSED AIR DEVICES ON THE TIRE
CHANGER ARE ONLY DESIGNED TO FACILITATE
THE TUBELESS TIRE BEADING OPERATION OR TO
SETTLE THE INNER TUBE, ACCORDING TO THE
TYPE OF TIRE.
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE ALLOWED
BY THE TIRE MANUFACTURER.
THE OPERATOR MUST STAND SAFELY CLEAR FROM
THE WHEEL WHEN BEADING THE TIRE, AND
PRESSURE MUST BE MONITORED FREQUENTLY TO
AVOID EXCESSIVE PRESSURE.
BEFORE BEADING, CHECK THE CONDITION OF TIRE
AND RIM.
CHECK FOR CORRECT SEALING BETWEEN THE VALVE
AND THE FITTING AT THE END OF THE AIR HOSE. AN AIR
LEAK CAN GIVE INCORRECT PRESSURE READINGS
AND CREATE SAFETY HAZARDS
CHECK THAT THE READING ON THE PRESSURE
GAUGE IS “ZERO” WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE.
THE COMPLETE SEATING THE BEAD ON THE RIM IS A
VERY DANGEROUS STAGE OF THE TIRE MOUNTING
PROCEDURE.
TO COMPLETE THE BEADING OPERATION AND
INFLATE THE TIRE CORRECTLY, PLACE IT IN AN
APPROPRIATE TYPE APPROVED CAGE.
A TIRE BURST, WHATEVER ITS CAUSE, CAN RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
AVOID MOUNTING TIRES THAT ARE 1/2" SMALLER IN
DIAMETER THAN THE RIM, DOING SO FAILS TO ENSURE
THAT THE BEADS ARE SEALED PROPERLY IN THEIR
SEATS: THIS COULD BE A SOURCE OF DANGER WHEN
DRIVING.
