A WHEEL CAN EXPLODE IF:
1) the diameter of the rim is not exactly the same at the tyre's.
2) the rim or tyre are defective.
3) if the maximum recommended pressure is exceeded during bead seating.
4) the tyre is inflated to a pressure higher than the maximum recommended by the manufacturer.
5) the operator does not observe the requisite safety regulations.
Follow these steps:
1) Remove the valve stem.
2) Clip the valve onto the inflator chuck making sure it is properly connected.
3) Make a last check to be certain that tyre and rim diameter correspond.
4) Check to be certain that rim and beads are sufficiently lubricated. If necessary lubricate some more.
5) Seat the beads with short bursts of air. Between bursts, check the air pressure on the inflator gauge. Check to see if the
beads have seated and, if not, repeat the process. Special take must be taken when seating beads on humped or double humped
anti-bead breaking rims.
6) Continue to inflate the tyre with short bursts of air and constantly checking the pressure between bursts until the required
pressure has been reached.
EXPLOSION HAZARD!
NEVER exceed 3.5 bar (50 Psi) when seating beads or inflating tyres.
IMPORTANT! If a higher tyre inflation pressure is required, remove the wheel from the tyre changer
and continue the inflation procedure with the wheel inside a special protection cage
(commercially available).
NEVER exceed the maximum inflation pressure given by the tyre manufacturer.
ALWAYS keep hands and entire body back from inflating tyre.
ONLY specially trained personnel are allowed to perform these operations.
Do not allow other to operate or be near the tyre changer.
WARNING!
Before making any inspection, adjustment or repair be certain power source is disconnected:
1) disconnect the machine from the mains electric supply.
2) disconnect the machine from the compressed air circuit by detaching the compressed air line from the quick
couple.
Perform the following routine maintenance operations:
1) From time to time (about every 15 days) check the oil level in the lubricator,
which should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" indicators on the jar (1, Fig. S).
Top up as needed as follows:
- Unscrew the jar (1, fig. S)
- Top up with ISO VG 32 viscosity ISO HG class oil for compressed air circuit (such
as ESSO Febis K32; Mobil Vacouline Oil 1405; KLUBER Airpress 32).
2) Every 2 or 3 days check if after every 2 or 3 pedal movements (3 or 5, Fig. H) a
drop of oil falls into the lubricator glass cup.
If it does not, adjust the lubricator regulating screw using a screwdriver (see Fig. S).
3) Clean the machine daily to remove any dirt or tyre debris from the wheel clamp
jaw slides.
Lubricate these slides using ISO VG 68 viscosity ISO HG class grease (such as, for
TC 110 PRO
