18) Position the tyre on the platform with the
side ring turned towards the turntable.
19) Clamp the side ring on the turntable as
described for WHEEL CLAMPING.
WARNING
The tyre is not fastened securely to the
side ring.
Any strain on it during positioning and/or
clamping could cause it to detach and fall.
20) Move the mobile control unit to working
position D.
21) Lift the wheel.
22) Return the tool holder arm to the working
position.
23) Position the turntable so the bead breaker
disc is perfectly lined up with the tyre bead.
24) Turn the turntable and at the same time
move the bead breaker disc forward until the
tyre comes out of the side ring completely.
N.B.: This double bead breaking procedure
can be avoided by using the PAIR OF CLAMPS
(upon request) that make it possible to fasten
the side ring to the rim and break them at the
same time.
The pair of clamps (Fig. 37) is supplied with
instructions for proper mounting and use.
WARNING
When the beads come off the rim, the tyre
will fall.
Make sure no one is in the work area.

MOUNTING
WHEELS WITH 3-PIECE SIDE RINGS
1) Move the turntable arm to the non-working
position.
If the rim has been removed from the turn-
table, reclamp it as described in the "WHEEL
CLAMPING" paragraph.
N.B.: On wheels with an inner tube, the valve
hole must be positioned at the bottom (6
o'clock).
2) Lubricate the tyre beads and rim using the
recommended soapy solution.
3) Move the mobile control unit to working
position B.
4) Move the mobile platform outward so that
the tyre can be placed onto it.
N.B.: If the wheel has an inner tube, position
the tyre with the valve at the bottom (at 6
o'clock).
5) Lower or lift the turntable in order to ex-
actly centre the rim to the tyre.
6) Move the platform inward to make the rim
enter the tyre.
WARNING: If the tyre has an inner tube, push
the valve inside so it will not be damaged.
Move forward with the platform until the rim
is completely inserted in the tyre.
7) Move the tool holding arm to the external
side then lower it to the working position
with the bead breaker disc turned towards
the wheel.
N.B.: If the tyre is not inserted sufficiently
37
on the rim, move the turntable until the tyre
bead is positioned in correspondence of the
bead breaker disc. Move the disk forward (and
at the same time turn the turntable) until it is
completely inserted.
8) Put the side ring on the rim and then install
the lock ring with the help of the bead breaker
disc as shown in Fig. 38.
