Deflate the Tire
You must
fully deflate
a Tire before you can demount it.
⚠
DANGER
Never attempt to demount or mount an
inflated
Tire. They must be deflated.
Attempting to demount or mount an inflated Tire could cause it to explode, which
could result in injury or even death.
To deflate a Tire:
1.
If the Valve Stem has a Cap on it, remove it.
2.
Pull the Valve Core out of the Valve Body.
Use a Valve Core Tool to remove the Valve Core. If a tool is not available, you may be able to use
needle-nosed pliers.
If you are going to use the same Valve Stem with the new Tire you are going to mount, keep the
Valve Core you just took out.
BendPak Ranger recommends installing a new Valve Stem when you mount a new Tire.
3.
Make sure all of the air comes out of the Tire.
⚠
WARNING
Do not proceed with any other Tire changing activity until you are certain the Tire is
fully
deflated. Do not demount a Tire until you yourself have made sure the Tire is
fully deflated. In other words, do not take someone’s word for it. If you are
demounting a Tire,
you
must make sure it is
fully
deflated.
