Removing the Tire





- Turn the wheel on the tire mounting device so that valve stem/tire pressure sensor is in front of the mounting head.

- Position the mounting head in the vicinity of the valve stem/tire pressure sensor so that tire iron can be put on approximately 30° next to valve stem/tire pressure sensor.

- Now, pry the tire bead over the mounting finger on the mounting head using the tire iron and remove the tire iron again.

- Let the tire dismounting/mounting machine run clockwise until the upper bead lies completely above the rim flange.

- Turn the wheel on the tire mounting device so that the valve stem/tire pressure sensor is in front of the mounting head.

• Check the tire pressure sensor for loose or damaged parts. If the threaded connections are loose, the nut, valve stem insert, seal, sealing washer and valve cap must be replaced by new parts from the repair kit. Refer to the Parts Catalog.

• If the tire pressure sensor is damaged, then it must be replaced completely. Refer to one of the following:
