Wheel Clamping - SICE S 45 Basic Manual De Instrucciones

Bring the blade (14, Fig. L) against the bead about 1 cm from the edge of the rim
(See Fig. N1).
WARNING! Position the blade as to operate the side of
the tyre and not of the rim.
4) Push the blade (14, Fig. L) into the tyre by depressing pedal (3, Fig. L).
Repeat this process at different points around the tyre and on both sides until the
beads are completely loosened.
WARNING: During bead breaking, care must be taken
not to deform the tyre too much as this may damage it.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of damage to the valve and
the pressure sensor (if installed), only break the bead
with the valve and sensor at 90° to the bead breaker
pressure point (at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock).
Before proceeding with the bead breaking procedure, it
is essential to identify the type of tyre being worked on
(especially when working on RUN FLAT, LOW PROFILE
or UHP tyres).
The optional stroke limiter (see Fig. N/2) is required for bead breaking on RUN
FLAT, LOW PROFILE and UHP tyres.
The device limits the "closure" of the bead breaker by different amounts depending
on the position of the pin (1, Fig. N/2):
- setting "0" : no limitations
- settings 6"-7" ; 8 -9" ; 10"-11" : indicate the rim width for which the bead
breaker closure is set.
Check the width of the rim then place the pin in the correct hole: the stroke limiter
will allow the bead to be broken without letting the shovel penetrate too far and
crush the beads (see Fig. N/3).

10.2 WHEEL CLAMPING

1) Check to make sure there are no weights on the rim.
2) Coat the bead and the edges of the rim thoroughly with the special grease.
3) The rim can be clamped on the table top from the inside or the outside.
ATTENTION: In order to avoid marking the rim, alloy rims should be locked exclusively from the outside after having
mounted the specially-provided protection on the clamps.
WARNING!
When clamping a tyre, NEVER have your hands under the tyre.
To clamp the tyre correctly, position the wheel exactly at the centre of the table top (2, Fig. L).
Check to be certain that the wheel is correctly clamped by all four grippers.
