INTRODUCTION

The easy and instant way to seat tubeless tyre beads. Dumps air into tyre void forcing bead to seat against the rim for inflation. Air release is controlled by a hand lever operating a ball valve. A fully certified tank with gauge and safety valve prevents over-pressurising. Suitable for use on cars, commercials, agricultural and ATV tyres.

SPECIFICATION

Model No: ……………………….. TC900.V2
Maximum Pressure ………………… 150psi(10.4 bar)
Tank Capacity ……………………… 19ltr

ASSEMBLY

Check that all components are present and in good order. Screw the Barrel firmly into the Air Release Valve using PTFE tape or equivalent to enable sealing and ease of removal.

OPERATION

5.1.TO CHARGE THE TANK.
5.1.1.  Attach an airline to the air inlet connection on the bead seater, open the inlet valve and charge the tank to required pressure. The normal working pressure varies from 50psi to 130psi, depending on the size and condition of the tyre. The bead seater can help inflate all passengers, trucks and even some small agricultural tyres. When used with the wheel in the upright position it will normally require a pressure over 90psi to set the bead.

5.2.1. Adjust the barrel, so that the barrel flange is on the top, ensuring that it is secure.
5.2.2. Ensure that both beads of the tyre have been well lubricated and position the wheel onto a stand. The valve stem should be pointing upwards and the wheel should be off the ground so that the lower bead should be already seated.
5.2.3. Position the bead seater so that the weight of the unit is resting firmly and comfortably on your leg, and rest the barrel flange on the rim of the wheel directly opposite the valve stem. Attach an airline to the valve stem to simultaneously assist in the inflation process. The bead seater should be positioned at an angle of between 50 and 70 degrees (fig.1), so that the barrel is pointing directly into the largest gap between the tyre and the wheel (fig.3).
5.2.4. Holding the bead seater securely with one hand and keeping it steady against the wheel quickly open the release valve with the other hand. If the bead does not seat, recharge the tank to a higher pressure and repeat the procedure.
NOTE: Once the bead has been set, if required, move the wheel into a tyre cage and inflate to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure.
5.3. USING THE BEAD SEATER IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION (TRUCK TYRES ONLY).
5.3.1. Adjust the barrel so that the barrel flange is on the bottom, ensuring that the lock nut holding it is secure.
5.3.2. Position the wheel against a wall or a solid prop. Make sure that the valve stem is at the bottom and facing towards you.
5.3.3. Attach an airline to the valve stem to simultaneously assist in the inflation process.
5.3.4. The bead seater should be positioned at an angle of between 50 and 70 degrees (fig.2), so that the barrel is pointing directly into the largest gap between the tyre and the wheel (fig.3).
5.3.5. Holding the bead seater securely with one hand and keeping it steady against the wheel quickly open the release valve with the other hand. If the bead does not seat, recharge the tank to a higher pressure and repeat the procedure.
NOTE:
Once the bead has been set, if required, move the wheel into a tyre cage and inflate to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure.
WARNING! Always wear the personal safety equipment as recommended in these instructions whilst using this product.
