Deflate the Tire
You must fully deflate
⚠
DANGER
To deflate a Tire:
1. If the Valve Stem has a Cap on it, remove it.
2. Pull the Valve Core out of the Valve Body.
Use a Valve Core Tool to remove the Valve Core. If a tool is not available, you may be able to use
needle-nosed pliers.
If you are going to use the same Valve Stem with the new Tire you are going to mount, keep the
Valve Core you just took out.
BendPak Ranger recommends installing a new Valve Stem when you mount a new Tire.
3. Make sure all of the air comes out of the Tire.
