D. Mount the fi rst bead as described in section 4.2.B.

5.2 INFLATING TUBE-TYPE TIRES
Make sure that both beads are properly lubricated.
BEAD SEATING IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PART
OF MOUNTING A TIRE.
NEVER STAND OVER TIRE WHEN ATTEMPTING
TO SEAT BEADS OR DURING INFLATION
IT IS POSSIBLE TO MOUNT TIRES THAT ARE 1/2"
SMALLER IN DIAMETER THAN THE RIM THAT
THEY ARE MOUNTED ON. WHILE THESE BEADS
WILL SEAL, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THEM TO
SEAT IN THEIR PROPER POSITION.
EXPLOSION OF A TIRE MAY CAUSE SEVERE IN-
JURY OR DEATH.
BEFORE INFLATING A TIRE, CHECK THE CONDI-
TION OF THE TIRE AND THE RIM.
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE AL-
LOWED BY THE TIRE MANUFACTURER.
THE RIM MUST BE UNCLAMPED WHEN INFLA-
TING.
THE OPERATOR MUST STAND CLEAR FROM THE
WHEEL WHEN INFLATING, AND PRESSURE MUST
BE MONITORED FREQUENTLY TO AVOID OVER
INFLATION.

To infl ate the tire unlock the rim and start infl ating
while pressing the valve towards the inside (this is
necessary to avoid air pockets forming between tube
and the tire) (Fig.26).
Ensure that the tire is correctly centered on the rim
and complete infl ation.
5.3 MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING
MOTORCYCLE TIRES
To mount and demount motorcycle tires it is necessary
to utilize the optional four motorcycle adaptors (part
number EAA0351G92A).
The bead-breaking, mounting and demounting techni-
que is the same as per the car, tubeless or tube-type
tires.
NOTICE!
MOTORCYCLE RIMS MUST ALWAYS BE CLAMPED
FROM THE OUTSIDE. AIR PRESSURE MUST NOT
EXCEED 110 PSI (8 BAR) WHEN CLAMPING MO-
TORCYCLE RIMS.
