Installation guide

1. Loosen the tire
   Remove the valve cap and valve nut and deflate the tire.
   Use an air pressure trowel to peel the rubber outer tire off the rim.
   Note: Make sure that the valve tip faces the air pressure scoop at an angle of 180°.

2. Remove the tire.
   Clamp the tire onto the tire changer, adjust the valve to the 1 o’clock position relative to the tire separation head, insert the tire tool and lift the tire bead onto the mounting head to remove the bead.
   Note: This starting position must be observed during the entire disassembly process.

3. Removing Sensors
   Remove the valve tip cap and nut from the stem, then remove the sensor assembly from the rim.

4. Installation of sensors and valve tips
   Step 1. Remove the valve caps and nuts from the valve stems one by one.
   Step 2. Make sure the sensor is located on the inside of the rim, then put the valve stem through the valve hole and install the nut back on the valve stem. Tighten the nut with a torque of 4 N.m. and then install the valve cap back onto the valve stem.
   Note: Both the nut and valve cap should be located on the outside of the rim.

5. Mounting the tire
   Mount the tire on the rim by placing the tire on the rim, making sure that the valve faces the breakaway head at an angle of 180°.
   NOTE: Please follow the tire changer manufacturer’s instructions strictly for mounting the tire to the rim.
