FITTING
AND
REMOVING TYRES.
Inextensible
steel
wires
are incorporated in
the
edges of the tyres.
Therefore,
do not
attempt
to stretch-
the wire
edges
of
the tyre cover
over
the rim
edge.
Force is
entirely
unnecessary,
and may be
dangerous, as it merely
tends
to damage
the cover
edgei
and serves
no helpful purpose.
--
Fitting
or removing,will
be
quite
easy
if
the
wire
edges are carefully
adjusted.into
the
rim
base;
if
if is not
fbund to
be
easy, the
operation
is not
being performed
correctly.

Remove

all
valve parts,
and
push
both
cover
edges
into
the base of
the rim
at
the part
diametrically
opposite to the valve,
then lever
the
cover
edges
near
the
valve
over'tfre rim edge.
