PUMPING TYRE
(It applies to stroller fitted with wheels pumped)
Illustration 25. Illustration 26.
•Before pumping the tires, identify the type of valve which is located on the tire. This may be
one of the two valves shown in Illustration 25 and 26.
•Prest valve also has an additional small top, which must be loosened before pumping.
•After identifying the valve, prepare the pump designed to valve type.
•Most of the new pumps are equipped to service both Prest and Schrader valve. Many of them
let to reverse the tip. Smaller hole is Prest valve, Schrader valve greater. If the pump does not
support Prest, you will need to buy yourself one with the "Prest adapter", which is available at
any bike store.
•At this point, if the wheel is provided with a valve Prest, it will be necessary to unscrew the
top located on the vent. It is a small top, which can be unscrewed with fingers. When doing
this, the top should move upwards. Then valve is considered open.
•Then remove the plastic top from the valve and set it aside in a safe place. It is important to
not lose it, because the valves will get dirt, leading to difficulties in pumping and rapid air
loss.
•Place the nozzle of the pump to the valve and check if it stick properly. If it is needed, push
the pump to the valve to make sure that the air does not go to the sides.
•If the pump has a lever with clamp at the nozzle, tighten it. If the nozzle of the pump and valve
have a threaded tip, screw them together. As a result, air will be streamed directly to the inner
tube and the nozzle can not detach from the valve.
•At the beggining of pumping the pressure in tyres should be checked at some points. Check
tire pressure with your thumbs at the end of the tread. If it is possible, make only a millimeter
indentation. It means that the tire has enough air. If necessary continue pumping.
•After pumping, remove or unscrew the nozzle from the valve outlet while compressing it's
ends by thumb. It is recomended to do this quick enough in order to not loose too much air.
•For Presta valve, tighten previously loosened additional small top.
