5.7. TYRE INFLATION
5.7.a. SAFETY INDICATIONS
Verify that both upper and lower tyre beads
and the rim bead seat have been properly
lubricated with an approved mounting paste.
Safety goggles with plain lenses and safety
footwear must be worn.
Lock the rim on the turntable during inflation.
Remove the valve stem core if not already done.
Connect the inflation hose to the valve stem
(Fig. 42).
Step down partially on the pedal to inflate
the tyre and seal beads with the inflation hose. Frequently stop to check bead seating pres-
sure on the gauge.
Avoid personal injury.
Carefully read, understand and observe the following instruc-
tions.
1. Overinflated tyres can explode, producing hazardous flying debris that may result in an
accident.
2. Tyres and Rims that are not the same diameter are “mismatched”. Never attempt to mount
or inflate any tyre and rim that are mismatched. For example, never mount a 16” tyre on a 16.5”
rim (or vice versa). This is very dangerous. A mismatched tyre and
rim could explode, resulting in an accident.
3. Never exceed the bead setting pressure (gauge on hose) pro-
vided by the tyre manufacturer, as stated on the sidewall of the tyre.
4. Never place your head or any part of your body over a tyre
during the inflation process or when attempting to seat beads.
This machine is not intended to be a restraining device for
exploding tyres, tubes or rims.
5. Always stand back from the tyre changer when inflating, never
lean over.
