Release the air from the tire and remove the valve core
from the tube stem.
With the tire and wheel assembly flat on the ground,
break the tire bead away from the rim on the side facing
up.
Place a protector on the rim and, using a tire iron, start
the bead over the rim. Hold the bead above the rim with
the iron.
If the tube is to be reused, exercise care when using
the tire irons to avoid pinching the tube and
damaging it as the tire is being removed.
Using a second tire iron and rim protector, start the bead
over the rim at a short distance away from the first iron.
Continue working around the rim with the second iron
until the bead is over the rim for the full circumference
of the tire.
Remove the tube from the opening between the rim and
tire bead.
Stand the tire and wheel up. Then, working from the
other side of the wheel, pry the other bead over the rim,
using the tire iron and protector. Use care to support the
wheel and prevent it from falling as the tire is being
removed.
Remove the rubber rim strip from inside the rim. Discard
the rim strip if it is damaged or has deteriorated.

Check the wheel rim to ensure that no spokes are
protruding through the spoke nuts on the inner surface
of the rim. Correct the condition if necessary and then
install the rim strip over the spokes.
Apply a coat of rubber lubricant to the bead surfaces of
the tire. With the wheel flat on the ground, place the tire
in position on the upper edge of the wheel. Be sure the
tire is positioned correctly for its designed forward
direction of rotation.
Using the tire irons and protectors, pry the lower bead
over the rim edge and into the center. Press the bead
against the lower seat of the rim.
Partially inflate the tube for easier installation. Align the
tube valve stem with the stem hole in the rim and insert
the tube into the tire through the opening between the
rim and upper bead. Be sure to seat the valve stem in
the rim stem hole. Use care when installing the tube and
tire to avoid moving the rim strip from its position over
the spokes.
Starting opposite the valve stem, place a protector on
the rim and, using a tire iron, start the upper bead over
the edge and into the rim. Hold the bead in the rim with
the iron.
Exercise care when using the tire irons to avoid
pinching the tube and damaging it as the tire is
being installed.
Using a second tire iron and rim protector, start the bead
over the rim at a short distance away from the first iron.
Continue working around the rim with the second iron
until the upper bead is in the rim center for the full
circumference of the tire. Pressure adjustment may be
required to leverage the remaining 12" of tire bead over
the rim.
Inflate the tube to the specified pressure to fully seat the
beads in the wheel rim.
Release the air from the tire, using the valve core
remover. Reinstall the valve core and again inflate the
tube to the specified pressure. This process ensures that
the tube is properly positioned within the tire.
Inspect the tire bead on both sides to make sure the
beads are fully seated against the rim.
