device against the possible explosion risk of tyres, air chambers or rims.
7. Maintain a suitable distance from the tyre changer during bead insertion, do not approach it.
DANGER: A bursting tyre can cause projections of its parts in surrounding areas with a force sufficient to cause
serious injury or death.

dimensions (printed inside the rim) or if the rim or the tyre are defective or damaged.
The tyre changer is not a safety device and does not prevent tyres and rims from exploding.
Keep other people at a distance

• If an extension is necessary, use a cable with nominal features equal to or greater than those for the
machine. Cables with nominal features that are lower to those of the machine could overheat and
cause a fire.
