K.1.1 Removing tyres
Deflate the tube and while pressing on the tyre so that the air escapes
as completely as possible.
Press the tyre casing, opposite the valve as far as possible into the rim
and lift with a suitable tool (e.g. Bicycle tyre lever) a section of the tyre
wall up and over over the rim
Use a second tyre lever immediately adjacent to where the first was
used and progressively work around the rim, lifting the tyre over the
rim until one side of the tyre is lifted completely off the rim.
Pull the second side off the tyre off the rim with your hands
K.1.2 Putting on tyres
Put the tube inside the tyre and have the bend in the tube valve facing
in the direction that the tyre will rotate when it is on the wheel. Put the
tube valve through the opening in the wheel rim and make sure it is on
the correct side of the rim - where there is a recess in one of the wheel
rim spokes to enable the valve to sit flat against the spoke.
Once the tube is in the correct position tighten the lock nut on the tube
valve by hand
Coat the the tyre beads and the egdes of the rim with tyre bead
lubricant paste or dish washing liquid.
Completely press the first side of the tire casing by hand on to the rim.
The second side, starting next to the valve and push away from the
valve in the rim, so that the tyre then slips in the end at the valve in the
rim.
Note: As you are nearing having the last section of tyre onto the
rim, make sure that the already mounted areas are deep in the
rim, then the last piece slips into the rim relatively easily.
Precisely align by moving the tire on the rim, the valve to the valve
opening of the rim
After fitting the pump to the valve, before inflating the wheel you must
complete pull the valve out of the rim.
After installing the wheel, check for and adjust as necessary to
achiveve straight-line running
