both beads, inside and outside, (Fig. 5.3-2).

TIRE, IF REQUIRED. SOME TIRES HAVE A COLOR
DOT THAT MUST BE KEPT ON THE OUTSIDE OF
THE WHEEL.

NECESSARY TO MOUNT TIRE CENTERING
CORRECTLY AND GET A PROPER ON THE RIM.

• Lock the rim on the turntable and rotate it to have
the valve in 5 o'clock position. Place the tire to be
mounted on the rim. Swing the mounting arm forward
so that the mount/demount tool is in the working
position. Engage the lower bead OVER the mounting
wing and UNDER the mounting finger of the mounting
tool. Turn the wheel clockwise and push the tire
down into the drop center, opposite to the mount/
demount head (Fig. 5.3-3).
• Mount the upper bead following the directions in
section B (Fig. 5.3-4). With low profile tyres the bead
depressor tool "MX" (optional #4003444) can help to
facilitate mounting of the top bead.
