• Remove the wheel from the tire changer, and in-
stall the valve core in the valve stem.
NOTE,
Before installing the valve core inspect the
core.
• Bounce the tire several times while rotating. This
makes the tire bead expand outwards, and thus
makes inflation easier.
NOTE,
Before inflating, confirm that the balance
mark lines up with the valve stem.
• Pump up the tire with air.
WARNING,
Do not inflate the tire to more that 4.0
kg/cm 1 . The tire could burst with sufficient
force to cause severe injury. Never stand
directly over the tire while inflating it.
NOTE,
Check the "rim line" cast on the tire side
walls. It must be equidistant from the wheel
rim all the way around. If the distance bet·
ween the ' r im line and the wheel rim varies,
this indicated that the bead is not properly
seated. If this is so, deflate the tire completely,
and unseat the bead for the both sides. Coat
the bead with lubricant, and try again.
• After tire is properly seated to the wheel rim,
adjust the pressure to the recommended pressure.
Correct the wheel balance if necessary_
WARNING,
Do not run a repaired tire more that 50 km/h
(30 mph) within 24 hours after tire repairing,
since the patch may not be completely cured.
Do not exceed 130 km/ h (80 mph) with a
repaired tire.
