NEVER STAND OVER TIRE WHEN ATTEMPTING
TO SEAT BEADS OR DURING INFLATION.
D. Press the inflation pedal down swiftly to the end of
its travel to activate the bead seater jets. (Page 10
Fig. 1.2-1 item 8)
The top bead is already sealed by the lifting motion.
Therefore, the air from the bead seater jets will enter
the tire impacting on the top sidewall and rebound
into the bottom sidewall driving it into place and seating
the bead, creating an air seal.
WHEN OPERATING THE BEAD SEATER, ALWAYS
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES TO AVOID INJURY TO
EYES.
E. Install valve core, if removed. Complete inflation to
manufacturer's suggested pressure. Never exceed
pressure listed on tire sidewall.
