21. Depress the table top pedal to rotate the wheel clock-
wise. Leave the left hand helper in position opposite the
demount head and allow it to follow the wheel rotation to
assist the bead into drop center while demounting. Hold
the tool bar down until demounting nears completion.
(See Fig.11.23 - 11.25)
22. Lift and hold the tire so it is positioned with the lower
bead in the drop-center portion of the wheel. If the tire is
large/wide or has become stuck on the lower part of the
rim, the lower bead helper disk may be used to un-stick and
raise the tire. (See Fig. 11.26)
23. Insert the smooth curved end of the tool bar over the
right end of demount head and below the lower bead of the
tire. Push the tool bar down toward the wheel to lift the tire
bead up and over the right -side knob portion of the demount
head. Hold the tool bar in this position.
(See Fig. 11.27 -11.28)
24. Depress the table top pedal to rotate the wheel. The
demount head will guide the bead up and over the edge of
the wheel. Continue rotation until the lower bead is
de-mounted. The helper disk should be removed during
rotation. Swing the disc out of the way to complete
de-mounting. (See Fig. 11.29)
25. After the tire has been removed from the wheel, depress
the tower tilt pedal to move the tower away from the wheel.
(See Fig. 11.30)
DANGER!
The tool bar and demount head may encounter
resistance or come under load at times during
the mount and demount procedures. Keep one
hand firmly on the tool to avoid possible tool
kick back. Use the reversing feature (lift table
top pedal upwards) to back out of jam ups.
