Activating the Bead Breaker

CAUTION

The bead breaker uses a long stroke and high force. Be Careful not to dam-

age or bend rim parts, such as flange But weld, when using the bead

breaker.

1. Run the air hydraulic pump so that the clamping jaw begins to tighten against

the rim. (See Fig. 3) Make sure the wedge –

shaped teeth are placed well into the tire bead and against the rim flange.

NOTE: To grab the rim flange evenly, you may have to try Several times.

Do not force the bead breaker when grabbing the flange.

2. Continue to apply hydraulic pressure until the bead breaking ram ex-

tends about ¼ inch [6,35 mm] from the bead breaker. (See Fig 4.)

Maintain the

bead breaker, so that it is nearly perpendicular (90°) to

the rim.(See Fig. 5.) If necessary, adjust the position of the bead

breaker.

4. Step away from the bead breaker. (See Fig. 6.)
