Change of tire

Should it be necessary to replace tires, it is recommended to leave this to a specialist and follow the mentioned rules.
1. Always clean and inspect the rim before mounting.
2. Always check that the rim diameter corresponds exactly to the rim diameter molded on the tire.
3. Always inspect inside of the tire for cuts, penetrating objects or other damages. Repairable damages should be
repaired before installing the tube. Tires with unrepairable damages must never be used.
4. Also inspect inside of the tire for dirt or foreign bodies and remove it before installing the tube.
5. Always use tubes of recommended size and in good condition. When fitting new tires always fit new tubes.
6. Before mounting, always lubricate both tire beads and rim flange with approved lubricating agent or equivalent
anticorrosion lubricant. Never use petroleum based greases and oils because they may damage the tire. Using the
appropriate lubricant the tire will never slip on the rim.
7. Always use specialized tools as recommended by the tire supplier for mounting the tires.
8. Make sure that the tire is centered and the beads are perfectly seated on the rim. Otherwise danger of bead wire tear
can occur.
9. Inflate the tire to 15-19 p.s.i. (100-130 kPa) then check whether both beds are seated perfectly on the rim. If any of the
beads do not seat correctly, deflate the assembly and re-center the beads before starting inflation of the tire. If the
beads are seated correctly on the rim at 15-19 p.s.i., inflate the tire to a maximum of 36 p.s.i. (250 kPa) until they seat
perfectly on the rim.
10. Never exceed the maximum mounting pressure molded on the tire!
11. After mounting tires adjust inflation pressure to operation pressure recommended by the tire manufacturer.
12. Do not use tubes in tubeless tires.
€
DANGER! Non observance of mounting instructions will result in the bad seating of the tire on the rim and could
cause the tire to burst leading to serious injury or death!
€
DANGER! Never mount or use damaged tires or rims! Use of damaged, ruptured, distorted, welded or brazed rim is
not allowed!

Change of bulbs

2. Loosen the screws on the lamp and remove the cover or lens.
3. Remove the bulb.
4. Fit a new bulb, refit the cover and tighten the screws.
