4.2 

Changing pneumatic tyres 

  Risk of injuries and damage 

  Make sure all air is released from the tyre, before removing it. 

  Make sure that no body parts, the inner tube nor any other objects are pinched between tyre 

and rim.  

  Make sure all screws are firmly secured by hand before driving with the wheelchair.  

  Make sure that the pressure is correct, see the pressure indication on the tyres. 

  Inflate  the  tyre  using  inflating  equipment  which  complies  to  regulations  and  with  a pressure 

indication in “bar”.  

  Only use replacement parts approved by Vermeiren. 

 
To change the tyre or inner tube, proceed as follows:  

1.  Let all the air out of the inner tube.  
2.  Insert a tyre lever between de tyre and the rim.  
3.  Gently push the tyre lever downwards. This will pull the tyre over the edge of the rim.  
4.  Move the lever along the rim so the tyre pops out.  
5.  Carefully remove the tyre from the rim and remove the tube.  

 

Before replacing the tyre, check the rim bed and the inside wall of the tyre for foreign matter and 
clean  these  properly  if  necessary.  Check  the  condition  of  the  rim  bed,  especially  around  the 
position of the air valve.  

 

Please use only genuine original replacement parts. We do not accept any liability for damage 
caused by non-genuine parts. Kindly contact your specialist dealer.
