CAUTION

Make certain that the teeth slip in between the rim flange and the bead. If not, depress the RE-

LEASE end of the pump pedal and realign the tool. If the tool is not positioned correctly, extending

the breaker rod may damage the tire bead or sidewall, the rim flange, or the tool. If the tool is not

pushing parallel to the bead seat area, reposition before continuing.

Continue pumping until the tongue of the bead breaker pushes the bead free of the rim. Repeat the

process as needed around the diameter of the rim. The tool can be used on the front and back

bead areas.

Once the bead is free of the rim, depress the RELEASE end of the pump pedal.

Cleaning

Wash the exterior of the bead breaker with warm, soapy water. Rinse with clean water and the

tool dry with an air nozzle. Also pay particular attention to the cleanliness of the pump.

CAUTION

Avoid seal damage. Do not use solvent to clean the bead breaker.

Storage

Prior to storing the bead breaker:

1. Completely retract both rods. An exposed rod may be subject to rusting, pitting and damage

from striking other tools.

2. If chloride is spilled on the tool, rinse with clean water and blow dry.

3. Dress rod surface nicks and dents with fine grit emery paper. Rod surface nicks and dents if

left untended, provide a starting point for rust.

NOTE

The chrome plated rod surfaces provide the seal for the tool. Any steps taken to ensure the con-

tinuing quality of the rod surfaces will increase the service life of the tool.
