5.1 Demounting tubeless tires
• Remove all wheel-weights from the rim. Remove the
valve stem or core and de!ate the tire (Fig. 5.1-1).
• Break outer bead starting from opposite the valve
position. lubricate the bead and rim with a tire lube only.
Break inner bead. Do not hold the foot pedal depressed
longer than necessary since this could damage the
bead. Liberally lubricate bead and rim (Fig. 5.1-2).
WARNING"
ON CARS WITH RUN FLAT TYRES WITH THE
OPTIONAL LOW PRESSURE SENSOR INSTALLED,
BREAK THE BEAD AT 90 DEGREES OFFSET FROM
THE VALVE STEM. DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL WILL
RESULT IF THE BEAD IS BROKEN AT ANY OTHER
POINT ON THE RIM.
Locking Rims
• Set the rim clamps to the proper position: retract
clamps to clamp the wheel from the inside and expand
clamps to clamp from the outside. When clamping
small wheels (14” or smaller) from the outside, set the
clamps at diameter nearly equal to the rim diameter,
before placing the wheel on the clamps. This will avoid
the risk of pinching the tire.
WARNING"
TO MINIMIZETHE RISK OF SCRATCHINGALLOYRIMS,
THESE SHOULD BE CLAMPED FROM THE OUTSIDE.
• Liberally lubricate bead and rim.
• Place the wheel WITH DROP CENTER UPWARDS
(Fig. 5.1-3) on the turntable, and clamp in position.

5.1.1 Removing the tires
BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE TYRE EXTRACTION,
CHECK THAT BOTH BEADS ARE COMPLETELY
BROKEN.
5.1.1.1 Head Positioning
Procedure:
If necessary, adjust the mounting head as described in
chapter 5.7.2.
• Position the mount/demount head in contact with the
rim edge and lock it into place: the tool automatically
moves away from the rim edge vertically. Turn the
adjustment knob until the mount/demount head clears
from the rim flange about 1,5 mm (1/16”): this is
necessary to avoid rim damage (Fig 5.1-4).
Note: once the mount/demount head is positioned
properly, matching wheels may be changed
without having to reset the head.
Note: the plastic insert inside the mount/demount
tool must be periodically replaced. Every
machine is equipped with several plastic
inserts (inside standard equipment box). If
desired, the plastic insert may be replaced
by a steel roller also included in the standard
equipment box. Follow the instructions
included with the replacement parts.
• Insert the bead lifting tool under the bead and over the
support of the mount/demount tool. Lift the bead onto
the mounting !nger. To facilitate this operation, press
with left hand on the bead in position diametrically
opposite to that of the tool. If desired, the bead lifting
tool can be removed after lifting the bead onto the
!nger (Fig. 5.1-5).
• Rotate the turntable clockwise and at the same time
push down on the tire sidewall to move the bead into
the drop-center of the rim (Fig.5.1-6).
• Repeat the process for removing the lower bead. With
left hand, lift the bead in position diametrically opposite
the tool to keep it in the drop center (Fig. 5.1-7). Move
the swing arm aside and remove the tire.

5.2 Mounting tubeless tyres
• Lubricate the entire rim surface (Fig. 5.2-1).Lubricate
both beads, inside and outside, (Fig. 5.2-2).
OBSERVE THE ROTATION DIRECTION OF THE
TIRE, IF REQUIRED. SOME TIRES HAVE A COLOR
DOT THAT MUST BE KEPT ON THE OUTSIDE OF
THE WHEEL.
LIBERAL LUBRICATION OF THE TIRE AND RIM
IS NECESSARY TO MOUNT TIRE CENTERING
CORRECTLY AND GET A PROPER ON THE RIM.
BE SURE YOUARE USING APPROVED LUBRICANT
ONLY.
• Lock the rim on the turntable and rotate it to have the
valve in 5 o’clock position. Place the tire to be mounted
on the rim. Swing the mounting arm forward so that the
mount/demount tool is in the working position. Engage
the lower bead OVER the mounting wing and UNDER
the mounting !nger of the mounting tool. Turn the wheel
clockwise and push the tire down into the drop center,
opposite to the mount/demount head (Fig. 5.2-3).
• Mount the upper bead following the directions in
section B (Fig. 5.2-4). With low pro!le tyres the bead
depressor tool “MX” (optional #EAA0247G70A) can
help to facilitate mounting of the top bead.
NOTE: FOR NARROW SIDEWALLS, RUN FLATS, OR
EXPECIALLY STIFF TIRES IT IS RECOMMENDED TO
USE THE EASYMONT-PRO OPTIONAL ACCESSORY.
