5.2 Mounting tubeless tires

A. Lubricate the entire rim surface (Fig. 5.2-1).Lubricate
both beads, inside and outside, (Fig. 5.2-2).
OBSERVE THE ROTATION DIRECTION OF THE TIRE,
IF REQUIRED. SOME TIRES HAVE A COLOR DOT THAT
MUST BE KEPT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE WHEEL.
LIBERAL LUBRICATION OF THE TIRE AND RIM
IS NECESSARY TO MOUNT TIRE CENTERING
CORRECTLY AND GET A PROPER ON THE RIM. BE
SURE YOU ARE USING APPROVED LUBRICANT ONLY.

B. Lock the rim on the turntable and rotate it to have the
valve in 5 o'clock position. Place the tire to be mounted
on the rim. Swing the mounting arm forward so that the
mount/demount tool is in the working position.
ENSURE THAT THE MOUNT/DEMOUNT TOOL IS NOT
PRESET TO A WRONG POSITION SOTHAT IT WILL HIT
THE RIM EDGE AND CREATE AN HAZARD, BE-FORE
TILTING THE COLUMN FORWARD.
C. Engage the lower bead OVER the mounting wing and
UNDER the mounting fi nger of the mounting tool. Turn
the wheel clockwise and push the tire down into the drop
centre, opposite to the mount/demount head (Fig. 5.2-3).
D. Mount the upper bead following the same directions
(Fig. 5.2-4). With low profi le tyres the bead depressor
device "easymont pro" can help to facilitate mounting of
the top bead.
5.2.1 Use the Bead Presser as a mounting
help device.
A. Mount the fi rst bead.
Position the roller (Item 1) and the bead pusher tool
(Item 2) as showed in Fig. 5.2-5.
B. Lower the bead pusher so that the roller and the bead
pusher tool on the tire help keeping the bead into the drop
center (Fig. 5.2-4).
The bead pusher tool follows the tire rotation during the
mounting operation.
Bring the roller and the bead pusher tool back to rest
position.
