Should it be necessary to replace tyres, it is recom-
mended to leave this to a specialist and follow the
mentioned rules.
1. Always clean and inspect the rim before mounting.
2. Always check that the rim diameter corresponds
exactly to the rim diameter moulded on the tyre.
3. Always inspect inside of the tyre for cuts, penetrating
objects or other damages. Repairable damages
should be repaired before installing the tube. Tyres
with unrepairable damages must never be used.
4. Also inspect inside of the tyre for dirt or foreign bodies
and remove it before installing the tube.
5. Always use tubes of recommended size and in good
condition. When fitting new tyres always fit new tubes.
6. Before mounting, always lubricate both tyre beads
and rim flange with approved lubricating agent or
equivalent anti-corrosion lubricant. Never use petro-
leum based greases and oils because they may
damage the tyre. Using the appropriate lubricant the
tyre will never slip on the rim.
7. Always use specialised tools as recommended by the
tyre supplier for mounting the tyres.
8. Make sure that the tyre is centred and the beads are
perfectly seated on the rim. Otherwise danger of bead
wire tear can occur.
9. Inflate the tyre to 100-130 kPa (14.5-19 p.s.i.) then
check weather both beds are seated perfectly on the
rim. If any of the beads do not seat correctly, deflate
the assembly and re-centre the beads before starting
inflation of the tyre. If the beads are seated correctly
on the rim at 100-130 kPa inflate the tyre to a maxi-
mum of 250 kPa (36 p.s.i.) until they seat perfectly on
the rim.
10. Never exceed the maximum mounting pressure
moulded on the tyre!
11. After mounting tyres adjust inflation pressure to
operation pressure recommended by the tyre manu-
facturer.
12. Do not use tubes in tubeless tyres.
WARNING! Non observance of mounting instruc-
tions will result in the bad seating of the tyre on
the rim and could cause the tyre to burst leading
to serious injury or death!
WARNING! Never mount or use damaged tyres
or rims!
Use of damaged, ruptured, distorted, welded or brazed
rim is not allowed!
