4.4 Mounting and Demounting
Motorcycle Tires
To mount and demount motorcycle, motor scooter or
ATV tires it is necessary to utilize the optional adaptors
(4 piece EAA0247G07A or EAA0332G84A) and the
small-wheel bead breaker blade.
The bead breaking, mounting and demounting
technique is the same as per car tires.
NOTE: If the top tire bead is diffi cult to mount, see
paragraph 4.2.1.
WARNING!
MOTORCYCLE RIMS MUST ALWAYS BE CLAMPED
FROM THE OUTSIDE.
4.5 Angular tool adjustment
The tool is adjusted at the factory with an optimal angle
for most wheels used today. However, the angle can
be optimised for wheels with a diameter that differs
considerably from the standard.
To adjust the tool angle, proceed as follows:
1. Mount the rim for which the adjustment is required.
2. Loosen the lower screw (1, Fig. 4.4-1).
3. Adjust the tool with the screws shown (2a and
2b, Fig. 4.4-1). Unscrew the screw (2a or 2b, Fig.
4.4-1) to rotate the tool, respectively clockwise or
counterclockwise.
4. Screw in the opposite screw to block the tool in the
desired angular position.
5. Tighten the lower screw (1, Fig. 4.4-1) with a torque
of 35 Nm.
