The space between the rim and the tool head will be maintained for as long as the handle
is in the locking position. The operator can tilt the pole freely (e.g. when demounting
wheels of the same size) without repositioning the tool head.
9.5.b TOOL HEAD POSITIONING (Startline S 424 - Startline S 421)
- Take the horizontal arm into the operating position (Fig. 24)
- Lower the vertical arm until the tool head touches the upper rim edge.
- Adjust the opening of the horizontal arm using the handwheel (B, Fig. 24A) to create
the distance of about 2 mm between the tool head and the rim (B, Fig. 23A)
- Lock the vertical arm using the lever (A,
Fig. 24).
9.5.c WHEEL DEMOUNTING
-Insert and position the bead lifting tool on
the mounting tool head (fig.25).
When working with alloy rims or rims
with delicate paintwork, you are advised
to remove the bead lifting tool before
proceeding with the demounting.
Grip the bead lifting tool firmly during use.
- Lift the upper bead above the rear part of the demounting tool head (fig.25A) and push
one part of the upper bead into the rim channel by pushing downwards on the side wall
of the tyre near the operator.
