RISK OF CRUSHING
Take utmost caution when mounting the tyre. The rim and/or the tyre may be da¬maged accidentally,
with the risk of the tyre exploding during the inflation stage.
European style high-performance wheels (asymmetric curvature)- fig. 11-C: some European wheels have rims with
very pro-nounced curvature CF except in the area of the valve hole A where the curvature is less pronounced B.
On these wheels the bead must first be broken in correspondence with the valve hole, on both the top and bottom
sides of the wheel.
NB
When working on "weak" rims (i.e. a central hole with thin, projecting edges
- see next figure), or rims with gaps, we recommend using the universal
turntable for blind rims accessory.
8. PRACTICAL HINTS, ADVICE AND USEFUL INFORMATION
WARNING
To read before using the S 100 PL tyre changer.
The following information is highly signifi¬cant as it facilitates
the operator's job and/ or helps clarify any doubts that might
arise.
- Practical Hints
• Upon demounting, over-lubrication and/or an unusually shaped rim edge may cause the tyre to slip on the rim, making
demounting difficult. First, try using the bead breaker disc in an upward direction to raise the tyre. Otherwise, to speed up
the procedure simply place the manual Help accessory between the tyre and the edge of the rim. This will help lifting the
bead quickly off the rim so that it can be demounted (fig. 12).
• Upon demounting, if the tool cannot completely overturn the tyre bead to allow demounting to start, the tyre bead
may still be, or just have been, inserted at 180° to the demounting zone. In this case, it is es¬sential to restore the ideal
condition, with the tyre bead inside the well of the rim. This operation can be assisted with any tool you wish (clamp
supplied with the machine, pliers, bead presser or lever) (fig. 12a).
