5.3 LOCKING THE WHEEL
Operate the joystick 2 (2/fig. C) to raise the tool holder
arm (10/fig. A) out of the working position.
Operate the joystick 1 (1/fig. C) to raise or lower the
chuck arm until the chuck is centered with the rim.
With the jaws (2/fig. A) are closed, bring the wheel up to
the chuck.
Operate the chuck switch (4/fig. C) to open the chuck
and lock the rim internally in the best position based on
the type of the rim according to figs E/1-E/2-E/3-E/4-
E/5 and E/6.
When the chuck arm is lowered, there is always a potential for crushing
anything in its movement range. Always work from position given in the
instructions keep well out of working range of the various moving parts
.
In locking the wheel, make sure that clamps
are properly positioned on the rim, so as to
prevent the tire from falling.
This operation can be extremely dangerous.
Do it manually only if you are certain you
can keep the wheel balanced.
For large and heavy tires an adequate lifting
device must be used.
Always remember that the safest locking is
on the central FLANGE.
For rims with channel, clamp the wheel so
that the channel is near the outside of the
rim (fig. E/1).
Do not leave the work area with a wheel
clamped on the tire changer and lifted up
from the floor.
