· Lubricate the tire beads with the special grease in order to avoid da-
maging them and to facilitate the mounting operations.
During rim locking NEVER keep your
hands under the tire. For a correct loc-
king operation set the tire exactly in the
middle of turntable.
· For 10 to 20 inch wheels lock the rim using the inner part of the clamps.
· For 12 to 22 inch wheels lock the rim using the outer part of the clamps.
When working with rims of the same size
it is not necessary always to lock and un-
lock the mounting bar; you only need to tilt
and return the ram (P) with the arm and
the bar locked in their working positions.
Never keep your hands onto the wheel: the
arm recovery to "working position" could
set the operator at risk of hand crushing
between rim and mounting head.
· Move the tire so that the bead passes below the front section of the
mounting head and is brought up against the edge of the rear section
of the mounting head itself.
· Keeping the tire bead pressed down into the wheel rim channel with
your hands, press down on the pedal (Z) to rotate the turntable cloc-
kwise. Continue until you have covered the entire circumference of
the wheel rim (Fig. 12).
To prevent industrial accidents, keep
hands and other parts of the body as far as
possible from the tool arm when the table
top is turning.
· Insert the inner tube if there is one and repeat the same operations to
mount the upper side of the tire.
Demounting and mounting are always
done with the clockwise turntable rotation.
Anticlockwise rotation is used only to cor-
rect operator's errors or if the turntable
stalls.
