Tire, Installing
• Pay attention to the safety precautions and conditions. Refer to => [ Notes and Conditions ] Notes and Conditions.
• When changing a tire, it is recommended to change the tire pressure sensor seals at the same time.
- Coat the rim flanges, tire beads and inside of the upper tire beads thoroughly with tire mounting paste.
- Install the inner side of the tire first
- Turn the wheel on the tire mounting device so that the valve stem/tire pressure sensor - arrow - is opposite to the mounting head.
- Push the tires between the valve stem/tire pressure sensor and the mounting head into the bead - direction of the arrow -.
- Let the tire dismounting/mounting machine run clockwise.
- Mounting of the lower bead ends before the valve stem/tire pressure sensor to prevent damage to the tire pressure sensor.
The tire bead now slips over the rim flange. The wheel may be turned until the mounting head is located just in front of the valve stem/tire pressure sensor.
- Make sure the tire bead fits correctly on the mounting head and let the mounting device run clockwise.
- Mounting of the upper bead ends before the valve stem/tire pressure sensor to prevent damage to the tire pressure sensor.
The tire bead now slips over the rim flange. The wheel may be turned only until the mounting head is located just in front of the valve stem/tire pressure sensor.
- Inflate the tire to an inflation pressure of Max. 3.3 bar (spring pressure) (47.86 psi).
If the tire beads do not make contact completely on the wheel edge, pressure must not be increased under any circumstances.
Pre-damage to the tire or wheel would result.
- If the tire beads do not make contact completely on the wheel edge, then release the air, press off the tire bead once more and coat the rim flange thoroughly again with tire mounting paste.
- Inflate the tire to an inflation pressure of Max. 3.3 bar (spring pressure) (47.86 psi).
- If the tire beads make contact on the bead seat without problems, then increase the inflation pressure to 4 bar (58 psi) to settle the tire.
- Install a new nickel-plated valve stem insert and fill the tire to the specified pressure.
- Then balance the wheel.
- Install the wheel and tighten it to specification. Refer to => [ Wheel Bolt Tightening Specifications ] [1][2]Specifications.
