zone.
•
Lower the Disc (Command 3, Fig. 5.2-4) by exerting
moderate pressure to move the bead just slightly
away from its seat on the rim.
Note: Proceed with rotation and lubrication so that
the solution penetrates as far as possible
between tire and rim Figure 5.2-3.
• Gradually lower the Bead Breaker Disc, ensuring
that rotation is always active, until the bead has
been moved completely away from its seat in the
direction of the rim drop center.
