Mounting
Warning – hand injury danger!
During locking plate rotation there is a risk of
crush injuries.
Do not insert the fingers between the tire
and the rim.
1. Rotate the locking flange and bring the valve bet-
ween 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock position (the mounting
tool is at 12 o'clock position).
2. Lay the tire bead on the lower left edge of the moun-
ting tool tab.
3. While holding the bead in the semi-drop centre press
the rotation pedal and keep turning the locking plate
until the upper tire bead has passed close to the
mounting tool (1) and it has gone under the edge of
the rim.

Be sure that the bead is inserted in the drop centre
of the rim in order to eliminate bead yields; in order
to make his operation easier, it is suggested, during
rotation of the locking plate, to assist with a bit of
pressure the insertion of the bead in the rim.
i
In case of tires with tube, use the locking knob to
unlock the horizontal arm and move it to free the
working area; place the rim so that the valve hole of
the tube is positioned at about 90° degrees relatively
to the mounting tool position and insert, if needed,
the tube.
4. Repeat the same operations for the insertion of the
second bead.
i
In case of RFT or UPH tires, in order to hold the bead
inside the semi drop centre, the use of accessories
like clamps, wedges or of the TECNOROLLER SWING
bead breaker is suggested.
5. Press the locking jaw pedal to release the rim.

Inflation
Inflation can generate potential danger
situations. The operator has to carry out the
necessary precautions in order to guarantee
operational safety.
!
Safety device:
To protect the operator from eventual dangers that
can occur during tire inflating on the locking plate,
the COLIBRI BL512 26" ITAS has been equipped with
a valve that limits operational pressure to 3,5 bar.
5.4.1
Inflation with inflation pipe
1. Screw the valve element.
2. Connect the inflation pipe to the tires' valve.
3. Operate on the inflation pedal to inflate the tire until
it reaches the nominal pressure.
5.4.2
Inflation with tubeless pneumatics devices
1. Insert the inflation pipe in the tire valve.
2. Lift the tire upwards with both hands, allowing the
air (that comes out from the holes in the jaw) to
come in between rim and tire.
3. Press the inflation pedal until end stop, to let the
air come out from the jaws and, in the meantime,
release the tire to allow bead seating.
!
If the tire bead doesn't "seat" repeat accurately the
above mentioned operations.
4. Once the tire bead is seated, carry on the inflation
operation by holding the inflation pedal pressed in
its intermediate position, until the desired pressure
is reached.
