Tire Removal, Three- and Four-Piece Wheels
WARNING
Make sure all of the air pressure is removed from the tire
before a wheel is disassembled. Air pressure in the tires
can cause the tire and rim parts to explode causing seri-
ous injury or death.
Keep tire tools in firm contact with the wheel parts. If the
tool slips, it can move with enough force to cause an
injury.
1. Loosen the tire bead from the
side flange.
2. Put the tire tool into the slot
between the lock ring and wheel
rim. Remove the lock ring and side
flange. If there is a flange seat,
remove it.
3. Loosen the bead from the other
side of the wheel rim. Remove the
valve stem from the wheel.
4. Remove the wheel rim from the
tire.
Install Wheel in Tire
WARNING
Damage to the tire and wheel
assembly and injury or death can
occur if you do not do the follow-
ing procedures:
• Clean and inspect all parts of
the wheel before installing the
tire.
