To facilitate the assembly and disassembly and to
avoid the tire sealed ply breakage, wipe the tire bead and
the rim flange with cloth soaked in soap or simple water.
Prior to mounting, inspect the technical state of
wheel and tire: there should be no traces of corrosion,
dirt, metal scoring, especially on tapered surfaces con-
tacting with tire, there should be no bead damages, deep
cuts, holes on sides or tire tread. The operations should
be performed with the serviceable tools.
To mount a tubeless tire on a wheel rim
1. Place the gate onto a wheel rim.
2. Place the tire horizontally.
3. The wheel is disposed with disk up, insert the
bottom flange of wheel rim completely into the tire space
(see Fig. Tubeless tire mounting procedure 1).
4. Turn the wheel with tire over and, keeping the
upper tire bead on the level of a rim mounting groove,
by means of flat ends of one then both tire irons, force it
completely behind the bead flange of a rim (see. Fig.
Tubeless tire mounting procedure, 2).
