Mounting Tractor And O.T.R. Wheels
On One-piece Rims
1. Liberally lubricate both beads and the rim.
2. Firmly fit the mounting clamp to the outer rim flange at 9
o’clock. Roll the tire onto the sliding table and position it over
the mounting clamp attached to the rim edge.
3. Place the hook about (1” or 2-3 cm) away from the rim
edge and (1” or 2-3 cm) to the outside.
7. Place the hook tool as shown. The edge of the hook
should be about 1” (2-3 cm) away from the rim edge and
about 1” (2-3 cm) to the outside. Put the long tire bar in
between the bead and the rim.
4. Turn the chuck clockwise until the first bead is mounted.
Remove the clamp.
5. Place the tube (if any) in the tire and secure the valve
stem to the rim.
8. Rotate the chuck counterclockwise until the tire is
completely demounted.
6. Firmly fit the mounting clamp to the outer rim edge at 11
o’clock with the valve stem at 10 o’clock in such a way as
to hold the outer bead. If necessary make use of the tool to
create the space to fit the clamp.
7. Place the hook tool as described then rotate the chuck
clockwise till the tire bead is completely mounted. If
necessary, use the bead bar to keep the bead in the drop
center.
During the final phase of the demounting operation remove
the tire bar and hold the tire with both hands, in order to
keep it in a vertical position.
Do not inflate the tire on the machine. This machine is
not an inflation device. For inflation place the wheel in
an approved inflation restraint device. Refer to OSHA
standard number 1910.177.
