8.5.b POSITIONING THE WHEEL (for
AS 924 – AS 924 TI)
- Move the mounting/demounting head
against the edge of the rim (fig.23a).
- Press the button
in the working position (Fig. 23b).
IMPORTANT: press the button
lock both the vertical and horizontal arms simultaneously while
the mounting/demounting head moves slightly upwards away
from the rim edge (fig. 23).
This space between the rim and the vertical slide will be
maintained for as long as the handle is in the locking position.
The operator can tilt the tower freely (eg. when demounting
wheels of the same size) without repositioning the vertical
slide.
8.5.C DEMOUNTING THE WHEEL
- Insert and position the bead lifting tool on
the mounting vertical slide (fig.24).
When working with alloy wheels or wheels
with delicate paintwork, it is recommended
that the bead lifting tool is removed before
proceeding with the demounting.
Grip the bead lifting tool firmly during use.
- Lift the upper bead above the rear part of the demounting head (fig.25) and push a part
of the upper bead into the rim well by pushing downwards on the side wall of the tyre
nearest the operator.
