INSTALLATION

1) Position the Model 5120 on a solid level floor. Bolting it to the floor is recommended.
2) Attach valve assembly to base of machine with fasteners provided.
2) Attach a 1/4 NPT quick coupler nipple (not provided) into the fitting located on the treadle
valve assembly. Use 1/4 inch air hose with 100 p.s.i. minimum.

OPERATION

1) Position tire on rollers. Steady tire with hand and insert spread hooks between tire beads.
2) Adjust spread hooks to proper height for the tire size being repaired. The spread hook
arms are held in position with a hitch pin. To adjust the spread hook arms, pull the hitch
pin and move spread hook arm up or down to one of the four adjustment holes.
Most larger truck tires will use the uppermost adjustment holes. Both spread hook arms
must be adjusted to the same height.
3) Spread tire to desired width using the foot operated valve. If tire is lifted off tire rollers
when it is spread, the spread hook arms are positioned too high and should be lowered.
4) To rotate tire to new position, release air pressure and rotate tire on rollers.
5) The attached work light can be adjusted to most favorable position.
6) After tire repairs are complete, actuate foot valve to release spread hook pressure and
remove spread hooks from the tire bead.
