• Adjust the oil feed: twist the adjusting screw (FIG19-2) clockwise using the screw driver to slow the dripping speed and otherwise, quicken it.

CHAPTER 4 DEMOUNT AND MOUNT TIRE

Note: the operator must be trained and qualified then allow to operate the tire changer.Need to use the proper device and tools, wear the protective clothes, and use the proper safety precautions, like goggle, earplug, and safety shoe and so on.
4.1 BASIC PRINCIPLE

• In order to avoid damage the rim, especially the alloy rim, when mount and demount the ire, must use the specified crowbar.
• In order to facilitate the removal and protection the tire and rim, between the tire and rim, at the position which the bead break blade insert to, need to lubricate using industrial lubricants or soap water.
• For certain types of tires, pay attention to the tire wall and the rotation direction marked on the tire.
• The tire size must be suitable for the rim to mount.
• Before mount and demount the tire, need to check whether the rim had damage (deformation or surface of the outside of the rim, rim axial for radial beat is too big, corrosion or overall wear).
• In any case, pay attention to the mounting and demounting request of the special tire from the tire manufacturers.
• When inflate the tire, to increase the pressure uniformly and pay attention to the tire edge situation.

4.2DEMOUNT TIRE

• Deflate the air in the tire completely and pull out the core. Use the special tool to detach the weight on the rim. Place the tire between then bead breaking blade and tire pressing runner clog(FIG15).
• Then step down the tire press pedal(FIG3-11) to detach the rim from the tire. Repeat the same operation on the other parts of the tire to make the tire completely detached from the rim.
  
• Move the hexangular shaft to the working position to make the demount tool close to the rim of the wheel. The cylindrical roller in the demount tool will contact with the external rim of the rim and the bottom of the demount tool will contact with the surface of the rim.
  
• Press the lock handle press button(FIG3-3) to lock horizontal arm and hexangular shaft and the hexangular shaft will automatically move upwards. The quadric shaft will automatically backward a little to make the demount tool detached from the rim of the rim to avoid the damage on the rim(FIG16).

NOTE: The angle of the demount tool has been calibrated according to the standard rim (14″). If handling the extra-big or extra-small rim, you can reposition.
Use the crowbar to detach until the lip to the hump of the demount tool (FIG17). Step the turntable rotation pedal(FIG3-12) to rotate the turntable clockwise until the rim of the wheel fall off.
If the demount of the tire is jammed, please stop the machine immediately and then lift up the pedal to let the turntable rotate counterclockwise to remove the resistance!

• Take out the tube and then move up the lower lip to contact with the upper edge of the rim nd detach another lip (FIG18). Step the column tilt pedal (FIG3-9) and the column tilt backwards and at this moment, you can take off the tire.

4.3Mount tire

• Clean up the oil and rust on the rim and lock the rim on the turntable.
• Spread the lubrication liquid or soap liquid around the lip. Tilt the tire against the rim and keep the front end upwards. Press down the column tilt pedal (FIG3-9) to make the column return to the original position. Move the demount head to firmly contacted rim (FIG16). Position the left of the lip above the tail of the demount tool and the right under the hump of the demount tool (FIG18).
  
• Press down the right side of the tire as hard as you can and step turntable pedal (FIG3-12) to rotate the turntable clockwise to guide the lip into the tire detach slot completely.
• If there is tube, raise up the demount tool and put in the tube and position the core.
  
• Mount the demount tool again. Adjust the position of the upper lip. Use the assistant press roller and press to press the side of the tire to make partial of the lip into the tire detaching slot (FIG24). Step the turntable rotation pedal to rotate the tire. At this moment, continue pressing the lip just mounted on the rim.
• When 10~15cmof the tire not into the rim, change to the step mode. And observe the condition of the tire to avoid the tear of the tire. Once you feel there is any tear on the tire, release the pedal at once. Then lift up the pedal by instep to make the motor rotate reverse. Make the tire restore to the original condition to mount again.

4.4 Inflation
NOTE: When inflating the tire, please be carefully and series obey the operation process. Check the air route to see if the air connection is OK. This machine is equipped with an inflation device for monitoring the inflation of the tire and the inflation pressure.

• Loose the tire from the turntable.
• Connect the inflation hose with the tire air core.
• In the process of inflation, you should repeat stepping the inflation pedal. Confirm the pressure indicated on the pressure gauge not exceed the scope specified by the manufacturer. In this machine, there is a pressure decrease valve to keep theinflation pressure not exceed 3.5bar.
• For tubeless wheel with lax tire, the common inflation is invalid and can use the quick inflation then common inflation. (The quick inflation function is not standard configuration and need to special order).
• Step down the inflation pedalto the bottom position (second gear) and quickly release the pedal when the tireis full to the position of the first gear.

Note: the machine equips the reducing valve and set the pressure value at 3.5 bar. Customers can get different inflation pressure by adjusting the pressure decrease valve according to their own requirement.If the inflation pressure too high, you can press down the deflation press button on the inflation device to reach the required air pressure.
Warning! Explosive!
When inflation, you must follow the above safety operation and abide by the following instruction:

• Carefully check is the size of the rim same to the size of the tire and also check the wear condition of the tire to secure there is no damage before inflation.
• When the inflation pressure is relatively high, you should remove the tire from the machine and inflate in the protective cover.
• When inflate the tire, be carefully, keep your hands and body far away from the tire.

Chapter 5 Repair and maintenance

Note: Only the professional personnel can repair. Before any operations of repair and maintenance, you should power off and the power plug should be monitored by the repair personnel, meanwhile switch the pneumatic source and deflate the residual gas.
To correct use the tire changer and prolong its life,repair and maintenance in accordance with the operation manual is necessary. Or the running and reliability of the machine will be effected and the operator or the personnel around the machine will be injured.
5.1 The following parts will be maintained monthly:

• Keep the clean of machine and working site.
• Use the diesel oil to wash the hexangular shaft and quadrichorizontal arm (Fig20).
• Use the diesel oil to clean the turntable jaw and guide railand use the Lithium grease to lubricate.
• Periodically check the height of the in the oil fogger. If itis lower than the oil scale, please fill in the SAE30 grease. Periodically drill out the water and impurity in the oil-water separator.
• Periodically check and adjust the tension force of the transmission belt and properly adjust the adjustable nuts at the A and B position to adjust the tension of the belt.
• Check all the connecting part and tight the loose bolts.

5.1 The adjustment on the clearance between the tool head and rim.

• Switch off the pneumatic source and detach the protective cover on the hexangular shaft.If the clearance if too much, we can adjust the nuts (Fig21-A) on the vertical hexangular shaft downward by 16# spanner;If the clearance if too small we can adjust the nuts on the vertical hexangular shaft upward.
• Switch off the air source and detach the protective cover at the upper end of the horizontal arm.Use 5# spanner to loosen the lock nut (Fig21-C)on the M6 screw at the two end.Adjust the M6 screw,meanwhile use your hand to push the quadric shaft until it runs smooth and thenlock the nut.Use the spanner to adjust the screwin the middle and meanwhile lock the horizontal arm and observe the displacement. When the displacement is 2mm,lock the nut.
• If the square locking plate cannot lock firmly, adjust the taper locking pole.(FIG21-D)

CHAPTER 6 TRANSPORTATION

When transport the machine must apply the original package and place according to the mark on the package. The machine must be transported by the forklift with the corresponding tonnage(Fig22)and the stacked layer will not exceed 3layers.
