Repairing a flat tyre
• Unscrew the valve cap.
• Let the air out of the tyre completely by pressing the
pin in the centre of the valve in.
• Use the Allen key to remove the 5 cheese-head screws
(rear side of the wheel, 2).
• Remove the rim halves from the shoe.
• Remove the hose from the contact surface.
• Repair the hose and re-fit or fit a new hose.
PLEASE NOTE
If it is intended to repair and re-fit the old hose and this has become wet during repair work, it
can simplify fitting if some talcum powder is applied to the hose.
• Re-fit the rim halves into the shoe from the outside.
• Fill the hose with some air.
• Re-fit the cheese-head screws and screw the rim together tightly. Make sure the inner tube
does not get pinched between the rims halves!
• Check the exact fit of the contact surface.
• Pump up the tyre to the prescribed air pressure.
• Re-check the exact fit of the contact surface.
• Screw on the valve cap.
• Fit the wheel.
