Operating Instructions
⚠WARNING
 DO NOT to use the bead breaker with inflated tires.
 Wear ANSI Z87.1 compliant protective goggles and equipment.
 Ensure the wheel is stable and the work area if free and clear of debris.
 Secure and fully support any vehicles.
This bead breaker works on agricultural wheels, one-, two- and
three-piece truck tires and rims.
Depending on the type of wheel, make sure you have the right
accessories installed:
 Assemble the product, including the air-driven hydraulic
pump, hydraulic oil pipe, hydraulic quick coupling, and the
bead breaker. Check that all parts are in good condition and
not leaking. Connect the air compressor with the air-driven
hydraulic pump.
 Unload the truck and lift it with the jack. Place the wheel in
position and release the tire pressure.
 Hold the bead breaker to the rim as indicated in the photo.
 Turn on the air-driven hydraulic pump switch. Place the
pump in working position.
 With the claw pushing against the inner portion of the rim, push the shovel and feet against the
lateral ring and the bead of the tire.
 Maintaining pressure, push the shovel against the bead of the tire, breaking the bead from the rim.
Stop operation when the hydraulic rod reaches the stroke of 3 ¾". This helps to extend the life of
bead breaker.
 Treadle the air-driven hydraulic pump to the oil return and release the pressure. The hydraulic
push rod will be retracted and loosen the claw.
 Repeat this process around the rim as many times as needed to completely break the tire bead
from the rim of the wheel.
Maintenance
Checking
a) Every time you use the bead breaker, check for leaks, damages, and missing, loose, or worn
parts.
b) We suggest skilled personnel inspect the bead breaker yearly, and that all defective parts are
replaced with original parts supplied by the manufacturer (see parts list).
