Removing and Installing Tire on Wheel

1. Before attempting any removal operation, always completely deflate the tire. For tires with fluid, rotate the valve stem to the 12 o'clock position.

2. If the tire is flat, check for a plugged valve stem by running a wire through it. Inspect all parts for wear or damage, replace if necessary.

3. Make sure all parts are clean and free of dirt, paint, rust, oil, grease or other foreign material before assembly.

4. Install the valve stem into the rim base.

5. Apply soap to the bead of the tire and mount the tire on the rim.

6. Clear area of bystanders.

   CAUTION: Possible over-inflation may cause the tire to explode; this can cause personal injury or death. When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and an extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side. DO NOT stand in front of, or over the tire. Use a safety cage if one is available.

7. Connect the pressure regulating valve to the valve stem and stand to one side. Inflate the tire until the side flange of the tire slides outward against the rim. Adjust the tire pressure.

8. Install the valve stem cap.
