- Make sure that the wheel on which the tyre has been mounted is firmly clamped to the
turntable using the clamping device 1 fig. 31. Also make sure that the tool head and the
bead breaker unit are well clear of the working area, if possible in the rest position.
- Fix a new valve to the rim.
- Connect the Doyfe union of the inflation line 2 fig. 31 to the stem of the valve, after
removing the cap. Inflate the tyre by pressing Pedal 3 fig. 31. The tyre expands, bringing
the beads into the position where they create a seal.
- Continue inflating up to the maximum value of 3.5 bar to position the tyre correctly on the
rim. Make sure you are concentrated during this operation and check the tyre pressure
on the Air pressure display pressure gauge 4 fig. 31 continuously to avoid over-inflating.
Inflation of tubeless tyres requires a higher air flow-rate to allow the beads to pass over
the humps in the rim - see types of profiles of tubeless tyre rims in fig. 31; to provide
this, the internal mechanism of the valve should be removed.
In terms of anchoring of the bead in its seat, the hump (H) and double hump (H2) versions
provide greater safety in use, even if the inflation pressure is slightly lower than recom-
mended.
- Check from the position of the centring ridges that the beads are properly positioned
on the rim, and otherwise deflate, break the beads as described in the relevant sec-
tion, lubricate and turn the tyre on the rim. Repeat the mounting operation described
previously and check again.
- Replace the internal mechanism of the valve.
- Bring the pressure to the operating value by pressing the Inflation button 5 fig. 31.
- Fit the cap on the valve to protect its internal mechanism from dust and ensure an
airtight seal.
- Remove and unload the wheel as described in steps 11-12 of the "MOUNTING" sec-
tion.
