C. Mount the upper bead following the directions in section
B. With low profile tires the bead depressor tool (option

coming full circle and impacting the mount/demount head.
4.3 INFLATION OF TUBELESS
TIRES
Make sure that both beads are properly lubricated.
WARNING!
BEAD SEATING IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PART OF
MOUNTING A TIRE.
NEVER STAND OVER TIRE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO
SEAT BEADS OR DURING INFLATION.
IT IS POSSIBLE TO INCORRECTLY MOUNT TIRES THAT
ARE 1/2" SMALLER IN DIAMETER THAN THE RIM THAT
THEY ARE MOUNTED ON. WHILE THESE BEADS WILL
SEAL, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THEM TO SEAT IN THEIR
PROPER POSITION.
EXPLOSION OF A TIRE MAY CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR
DEATH.
Inflate tire according to manufacturers recommendations.
WARNING!
SAFETY RESTRAINT ARM MUST BE IN PLACE PRIOR
TO ATTEMPTING BEAD SEATING OR INFLATION.
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE ALLOWED
BY THE TIRE MANUFACTURER.
THE RIM MUST BE UNCLAMPED WHEN INFLATING BUT
ONLY AFTER THE BEADS HAVE BEEN SEATED.
THE OPERATOR MUST STAND CLEAR FROM THE
WHEEL WHEN INFLATING, AND PRESSURE MUST BE
MONITORED FREQUENTLY TO AVOID OVER INFLATION.
BEFORE INFLATING A TIRE, CHECK THE CONDITION
OF THE TIRE AND THE RIM.
