between right-hand edge of mount/demount head and the bead of the tire.
Pull back on bead lever tool repeatedly to force tire forward, and slip the backside of
the depressed "Tail" area into the drop center.
Position bottom roller and push on the lower bead of the tire.
NOTE: The mount/demount head must be fully seated on the outer
edge of the upper rim lip before prying bead lever back for
demounting.
Partially lift the tire bead over the right-hand end of the head.
Push bottom roller up again to fully bring tire bead over head.
Rotate the wheel counterclockwise approximately 1/2 inch to unfurl tire bead onto

Rotate wheel clockwise until the entire bead is lifted from the rim. Remove the Bead
