Tire Mounting and Dismounting
CAUTION: Use a tire-changing machine to mount or dismount the tires. Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions. Do not use hand tools or
tire irons to change tires. These tools may damage the beads or the wheel rim.
1. Clean the rim bead seats with a wire brush or coarse steel wool to remove lubricants, old rubber, and light rust. Before mounting or dismounting a
tire, lubricate the bead area well with an approved tire lubricant.
2. After mounting the tire, inflate it until the beads are seated. Never exceed 275 kPa (40 psi) to seat the beads.
WARNING: To avoid serious injury, do not stand over the tire when inflating it, because the bead may break when it snaps over the
safety hump. Do not exceed 275 kPa (40 psi) of air pressure in any tire if the beads are not seated. If 275 kPa (40 psi) of air pressure will
not seat the beads, deflate the tire. Relubricate the bead and reinflate the tire. Overinflation may cause the bead to break and cause
serious injury.
3. Install the valve core and inflate the tire to the proper pressure. Make sure the locating ring outside of the bead of the tire shows around the rim
flanges of the wheel on both sides. This positioning of the tire will insure that the bead of the tire is seated.
