3.5.2 Using a Tire Mounting Machine
1. After removing the deated tire / wheel assembly from the vehicle, unseat
the beads directly opposite the sensor and valve stem. The sensor should
be located at the valve stem (the rim mounted decal should also indicate
the sensor’s location). Do not break the bead at or near the sensor /
valve stem.
2. Position the lubricated tire / wheel assembly on the machine so that the
dismount head and the sensor are approximately aligned.
3. Lift the bead over the rim ange with the bead lifting bar and then advance
the assembly / dismount head clockwise to remove the top bead.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to remove the bottom bead.
