8.12.1.2 Disassembling the rim and the tyre on a vehicle with puncture-proof tyres

WARNING!
Danger of damage to the motor if the screws are not loosened and removed in the
correct sequence!
· Make sure you loosen and remove the screws in the correct sequence!
Screws 1 to 5 must be loosened and
removed in a particular sequence in
relation to each other. There is no pre-
defined numbering for the screws. There
is, for example, no screw with the pre-
defined number "1". For this reason, you
can start with any screw. This will then be
"number 1". "Number 2" is then the screw
next to it in a clockwise direction, "3" is
the next and so on.
●
Loosen and remove screws 1 and 3,
using the 6mm Allen key.
●
Loosen screws 2, 4 and 5 a single
turn each, one after the other, going
from screw to screw in a clockwise
direction, until they have all been
completely loosened and removed.
●
Remove the rim-half and the
puncture-proof inlay from the wheel.
