Mount a New Tire
Mounting a Tire is the process of putting a Tire onto a Wheel.
⚠
WARNING Mounting a new Tire can be hazardous if not done correctly. Do not change a Tire
unless you have been trained to do so. Failure to understand and follow proper
procedures can result in injury or death.
During mounting, the Tire Bead goes over the Mount Lip of the Mount/Demount Head, but stays under
the Demount Lip. See Mount/Demount Heads for additional information.
Review the following points before mounting a Tire:
•
Check the Tire and Wheel to make sure they are an exact match.
• If desired, replace the Wheel’s Valve Stem before mounting the Tire.
• Consider using the Alloy Steel Mount/Demount Head, as it has a built-in Roller that helps to keep
the Sidewall of the Tire stay under the Mount/Demount Head.
• Make sure the Wheel is both clean and free of balancing weights. Remove any weights and any
corrosion you find on the Wheel;
do not
service heavily corroded Wheels.
• Check the Tire for damage;
do not mount a damaged Tire
.
• Check the location of the TPMS and adjust the Tire if necessary. Do not damage the sensor.
• Check for yellow and red dots. If found, line them up with the appropriate locations on the Tire.
• Make sure the Tire is
fully
deflated.
When mounting a Tire, you mount the bottom Bead first, then the top Bead.
To mount a Tire :
1. Make sure you are wearing OSHA-approved (publication 3151) personal protective equipment:
leather gloves, steel-toed work boots, back belts, hearing protection, and ANSI-approved eye
protection (safety glasses, face shield, or goggles).
2. If the Wheel is not already secured on the Turntable with the Narrow Side facing up, move the
Wheel onto the Turntable and secure internally or externally.
3. Apply Tire lubricant to the top and bottom Beads and the top and bottom Rims.
4. Put the Tire over the Wheel, with the side that will be next to the Mount/Demount Head low and
the other side high (above the top of the Wheel).
5. Swing the Mount/Demount Head into position.
6. Bring up the low side of the Tire and put the bottom Tire Bead over the Mount Lip and under the
Demount Lip.
