Tyre inflating

TYRE INFLATING OPERATIONS ARE HAZARDOUS FOR THE OPERATOR. IF NOT PROPERLY
EXECUTED THEY CAN CAUSE DAMAGE FOR USERS OF VEHICLES WHERE TYRES ARE
FITTED.
STANDARD OR OPTIONAL INFLATING UNITS FITTED ON TYRE CHANGERS ARE EQUIPPED
WITH A PRESSURE LIMITING DEVICE WHICH ALMOST ELIMINATES ANY RISK OF TYRE
EXPLOSION DURING TYRE INFLATING.
AN OUTSTANDING RISK OF EXPLOSION STILL EXISTS THEN THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS
MUST BE RESPECTED:
OPERATORS SHOULD WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING LIKE GLOVES, SAFETY
EYEWEAR AND EARCAPS.
BEFORE FITTING A TYRE, CHECK TYRE AND RIM CONDITIONS AS WELL AS PROPER
COUPLING;
MAKE SURE THAT TYRE IS PROPERLY POSITIONED ON THE MACHINE. WHEEL OUTER PART
MUST NOT BE SECURED ON THE JAWS,
WHILE OPERATING THE MACHINE, OBSERVE CORRECT WORKING POSITION: DURING TYRE
BEADING AND INFLATING KEEP BODY AS FAR AS POSSIBLE FROM THE TYRE;
COMPLIANCE WITH TYRE MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS FOR TYRE INFLATION
PRESSURE.
NOTE: If measured pressure exceeds 4,2 bar, it means that the pressure limiting valve and/or pressure gauge
is not working properly. In this case, deflate the tire on the spot and contact an authorized service centre
to verify equipment operation. Make sure of proper operation before using any inflating equipment.
4.9.1

Tyre inflation with pressure gauge (on demand)

Connect the inflation device to the tyre valve and inflate the tyre using the left pedal.
Well lubricated beads and rims make the beading in and inflation much safer and easier.
A LIMITATION DEVICE IS PRESENT IN THE AIR SUPPLY LINE FOR THE TIRE INFLATION (4,2
BAR / 60 PSI).
In the case the beads are not seated at 4,2 bar, release all the air from the wheel, remove it from the tyre
changer and put it in a safety case to complete the inflation procedure.
4.9.2

Tubeless tyre inflating (only for "I" - "IT" versions)

• BEAD TIGHTNESS IS ENSURED BY A FAST, POWERFUL AIR JET WHICH CAN RAISE DUST, DIRT, ETC...
CLOSE TO THE AIR LANCES AND CAUSE SUDDEN NOISE PEAK, WITH ACOUSTIC SHOCK WAVE.
• WHEN TYRE IS BEADED, TYRE BEADS ARE STRONGLY PUSHED ON THE INNER RIM EDGES, THUS
CAUSING SUDDEN NOISE PEAK.
