Special Procedure - Hunter TCX56 Operating Instructions Manual

Step down partially on the pedal to inflate tire and seal beads with inflation hose. Frequently
stop to check bead seating pressure on gauge.
Avoid personal injury. Follow the following instructions.
1. Overinflated tires can explode, producing hazardous flying debris that may result in an
accident.
2. Tires and Rims that are not the same diameter are "mismatched". Never attempt to
mount or inflate any tire and rim that are mismatched. For example, never mount a 16"
tire on a 16,5" rim (or vice versa). This is very dangerous. A mismatched tire and rim
could explode, and resulting in an accident.
3. Never exceed the Bead setting pressure (gauge on hose) provided by the tire
manufacturer's, stated on the sidewall of the tire.
4. Never place your head or any part of your body over a tire during inflation process or
when attempting to seat beads. This machine is not intended to be a restraining device
for exploding tires, tubes or rims.
5. Always stand back from the tire changer when inflating, never lean over.
An exploding tire and rim may be propelled upward and outward with enough force
to cause serious injury or death.
Do not mount any tire unless the tire size (molded into the sidewall) matches the rim
size (stamped into the rim) exactly or if the rim or tire are defective or damaged.
This tire changer is not a safety device and will not restrain exploding tires and rims.
keep area clear of bystanders.

Special procedure

In case during inflation the tire does not seat on the rim because of the excessive gap
between tire/rim, it is possible to use a air-pressure airblast through jaws on turn table.
Verify that both upper and lower tire beads and rim bead seat have been properly lubricated
with an approved mounting paste.
Remove valve stem core if not already done.
