USE OF THE EQUIPMENT
11.1 Precaution measures during tire removal and fitting
Before fitting a tire, observe the following safety rules:
- rim and tire must always be clean, dry and in good condition; if necessary, clean the rims and check that: – neither the bead nor the tread of the tire are damaged;
- the rim does not have any dents and/or deformations (especially for alloy rims, dents can cause internal micro-fractures, that pass unobserved at visual inspection, and can compromise the solidity of the rim and constitute danger even during inflation);
- adequately lubricate the contact surface of rim and the tire beads, using specific tire lubricants only;
- replace the inner tube valve with a new valve, if the tire tube has a metal valve, replace the grommet;
- always make sure that tire and rim sizes are correct for their coupling; never fit a tire unless you are sure it is of the right size (the rated size of rim and tire is usually printed directly on them);
- do not use compressed air or water jets to clean the wheels on the equipment.
11.2 Preliminary operations
In view of the tire changer structure and of its intended use, the operator
must work with large diameter and heavy wheels/tires. The utmost care while
moving the wheels is recommended: make use of other operators, properly
trained and with suitable clothes.
THE CAREFUL LUBRICATION OF THE TIRES BEADS IS RECOMMENDED, IN ORDER TO PROTECT
THEM FROM POSSIBLE DAMAGES AND TO FACILITATE MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING
OPERATIONS.
11.3 Preparing the wheel
-
Remove the wheel balancing weights from both sides of the wheel.
REMOVE THE VALVE STEM AND ALLOW THE TIRE TO COMPLETELY DEFLATE. -
Establish from which side the tire should be demounted, checking the position of the drop center.
-
Find the rim locking type.
WHEN HANDLING WHEELS WEIGHING MORE THAN 500 KG (1102.5 LBS) A FORK-LIFT TRUCK OR A CRANE SHOULD BE USED.
11.4 Wheel clamping
DUE TO THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THE WHEEL/ TIRE, MAKE USE OF A SECOND
OPERATOR TO HOLD THE WHEEL INTO VERTICAL POSITION, IN ORDER TO ENSURE SAFE
OPERATIVE CONDITIONS.
MAKE SURE THAT RIM CLAMPING IS DONE PROPERLY AND THAT THE GRIP IS SECURE, TO
PREVENT THE WHEEL FROM FALLING DURING MOUNTING OR REMOVAL OPERATIONS.
DO NOT CHANGE THE SET OPERATING PRESSURE VALUE BY MEANS OF THE MAXIMUM
PRESSURE VALVES. THE MANUFACTURER SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INJURY OR
DAMAGE ARISING FROM UNAUTHORISED CHANGES.
THE OPENING/CLOSING MOVEMENT OF THE SELF CENTERING CHUCK GENERATES A GREAT
DEAL OF COMPRESSIVE FORCE DURING THE WHEEL LOCKING/UNLOCKING PHASE. KEEP
HANDS/FINGERS OR ANY PART OF THE BODY AWAY FROM MOVING CLAMPS AT ALL TIMES.
All wheels must be clamped from the inside.
CLAMPING ON THE CENTRAL FLANGE IS ALWAYS SAFEST.
FOR WHEELS WITH DROP CENTER RIMS SECURE THE WHEEL SO THAT THE DROP CENTER IS
FACING OUTWARDS COMPARED TO THE SELF-CENTERING CHUCK.
IF IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO CLAMP THE RIM IN THE HOLE OF THE DISC, CLAMP ON THE
BEAD SEAT CLOSE TO THE DISC.
TO SECURE WHEELS WITH ALLOY RIMS ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE JAWS ARE AVAILABLE.
THEY ALLOW YOU TO WORK ON THE RIMS WITHOUT DAMAGING THEM. THE PROTECTIVE JAWS
ARE FITTED ONTO SELF-CENTERING CHUCK NORMAL JAWS BY MEANS OF A BAYONET
CONNECTION.
To clamp the wheel proceed as follows:
- make sure the front bead breaker arm is in open position (Fig._16 ref._2);
- place the wheel in vertical position onto the platform;
- move the wheel close, by keeping it in vertical position, until grazing self-centering chuck jaws;
- use the corresponding control (Fig._13 ref._G-H) to position the coaxial self-centering chuck with the wheel center, in order to make jaws edges skim wheel edge;
- adjust the opening of the self-centering chuck through the corresponding control (Fig._13 ref._M-N) according to the type of rim to be locked;
- tilt the wheel at approximately 15° towards the self-centering unit;
- operate the control (Fig._13 ref._M) until the wheel is completely clamped;
- check both that the rim is clamped and centered correctly, and that the wheel has been raised above from the floor (Fig._13 ref._G),
so that it does not slip during the following operations.
KEEP ON OPERATING RIM CLAMPING CONTROL, UNTIL REACHING THE MAXIMUM OPERATING
PRESSURE (130 BAR- 1885 PSI).
THE CAREFUL LUBRICATION OF THE TIRES BEADS IS RECOMMENDED, IN ORDER TO PRO-
TECT THEM FROM POSSIBLE DAMAGES AND TO FACILITATE MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING
OPERATIONS.
AFTER COMPLETION OF TIRE MOUNT/DEMOUNT OPERATIONS DO NOT LEAVE THE WHEEL
CLAMPED ON THE SELF-CENTERING CHUCK AND NEVER LEAVE IT UNATTENDED.
11.5 Bead breaker arms’ functioning
During the working phases, the the front bead breaker arm (Fig._16 ref._2) can
maintain two firm positions, that is:
- “working” position (wheel front side) (Fig._16 ref._3);
- “off-work” position (Fig._16 ref._2).
In “working” position” (Fig._16 ref._3) the front bead breaker arm is in front
of the tire, just next the rim. From this position it can perform the
different tire bead breaking and mounting-demounting operations.
The adjustment of the correct “working” position of the rear bead breaker arm
(Fig._16 ref._4) is performed through handle’s rotation (Fig._16 ref._1).
11.6 Tubeless tires
11.6.1 Bead breaking
NEVER PLACE ANY PART OF YOUR BODY BETWEEN THE BEAD BREAKER ROLLER AND THE
TIRE.
THROUGHOUT TIRE MOUNTING/DEMOUNTING OPERATIONS, CHECK THAT THE WHEEL IS FIRMLY
CLAMPED BY THE EQUIPMENT CHUCK.
- Clamp the wheel on the self-centering chuck as described in “WHEEL CLAMPING” paragraph;
- move the self-centering chuck to working position (rise fully home) (Fig._13 ref._G);
- move to work position A (Fig._5);
- move rear bead breaker arm (Fig._17 ref._1) to work position with the roller at approximately 5 mm (0.2”) form rim’s edge, using the lateral handwheel (Fig._17 ref._2).
- move front bead breaker arm (Fig._17 ref._3) to work position, using lever (Fig._13 ref._1-F).
- carry out bead breaking of front bead first, then bead-break rear bead, by turning self-centering chuck counter-clockwise (Fig._17 ref._4);
- carry on turning self-centering chuck while generously lubricating tire rim and bead with a suitable lubricant. The more the tire adheres to the rim, the slower should bead breaking rollers advance.
THE BEAD BREAKING ROLLERS MUST NOT EXERT PRESSURE ON THE RIM BUT ON TIRE BEAD.
USE ONLY TIRE LUBRICANTS. SUITABLE LUBRICANTS CONTAIN NO WATER, HYDROCARBONS,
OR SILICON.
11.6.2 Demounting
THROUGHOUT TIRE MOUNTING/DEMOUNTING OPERATIONS, CHECK THAT THE WHEEL IS
FIRMLY CLAMPED BY THE EQUIPMENT CHUCK.
Tubeless tires can be removed in two ways:
-
Lubricate both rim and tire.
Move the lower bead into rim drop center and start pushing with rear bead breaker arm (Fig._18 ref._1), when the tire is tilted activate front bead breaker arm’s return movement (Fig._18 ref._3) and its shift to rest position (Fig._18 ref._2). Move the rear one forward (Fig._18 ref._1) until the tire comes out.
Move rear bead breaker arm (Fig._18 ref._1) to rest position. -
When working with very hard and low-profile (supers ingle) or with very wide tires, after the bead breaking of the two beads and after rim and tire lubrication, the first bead can be removed by using the tool (Fig._19 ref._1). After the bead has been loaded onto the tool (Fig._19 ref._1) through lever (Fig._19 ref._2), turn the self-centering chuck CLOCKWISE (Fig._19 ref._4); the second bead is removed by using rear bead breaker arm (Fig._19 ref._3).
THE REMOVAL OF THE BEADS FROM THE RIM CAUSES THE TIRE TO FALL. ALWAYS MAKE
SURE THAT NO ONE IS STANDING IN THE WORK AREA.
WHEN DEMOUNTING VERY HEAVY TIRES LOOK AT THE PROCESS AND AREA AROUND THE
CHANGER CLOSELY BEFORE COMPLETING THE OPERATION.
11.6.3 Mounting
THROUGHOUT TIRE MOUNTING/DEMOUNTING OPERATIONS, CHECK THAT THE WHEEL IS
FIRMLY CLAMPED BY THE EQUIPMENT CHUCK.
Tubeless tire fitting is normally done with front bead breaker roller; if the
wheel is especially hard to fit, use the tool.
With bead breaker roller
Proceed as follows:
-
secure the rim to the self-centering chuck according to the procedure described in “WHEEL CLAMPING” paragraph;
-
adequately lubricate tire beads and rim bead seats with a suitable lubricant using the supplied brush;
USE ONLY TIRE LUBRICANTS. SUITABLE LUBRICANTS CONTAIN NO WATER, HYDROCARBONS, OR SILICON. -

11.7 Tires with inner tube
11.7.1 Bead breaking
REMOVE THE LOCK NUT OF THE INNER TUBE VALVE TO ALLOW ITS EXTRACTION DURING
TIRE REMOVAL PHASES; REMOVE THE NUT WHEN DEFLATING THE TIRE.
The beading procedure is the same one described for tubeless tires.
WHEN BEADING WHEELS WITH INNER TUBES, INTERRUPT THE FORWARD MOVEMENT OF THE
BEAD BREAKER ROLLER AS SOON AS THE BEADS HAVE BEEN DISLODGED TO AVOID DAMAGE
TO THE INNER TUBE OR TO THE VALVE.
11.7.2 Demounting
THROUGHOUT TIRE MOUNTING/DEMOUNTING OPERATIONS, CHECK THAT THE WHEEL IS FIRMLY
CLAMPED BY THE EQUIPMENT CHUCK.
- Introduce the tool between rim edge and tire bead;
- move to work position A (Fig._5);
- insert bead lever (Fig._25 ref._1) between the rim and the bead on the right-hand side of the tool;
- turn the wheel clockwise by keeping lever pressed until the bead has gone completely out;
- lower self-centering chuck until the tire rests on the floor; exert a certain pressure on it; this will create enough space to extract the inner tube;
- extract the inner tube and lift the wheel again;
- the second bead is removed by using rear bead breaker arm (Fig._25 ref._2).
THE REMOVAL OF THE BEADS FROM THE RIM CAUSES THE TIRE TO FALL. ALWAYS MAKE
SURE THAT NO ONE IS STANDING IN THE WORK AREA.
WHEN DEMOUNTING VERY HEAVY TIRES LOOK AT THE PROCESS AND AREA AROUND THE
CHANGER CLOSELY BEFORE COMPLETING THE OPERATION.
