Before You Begin

When working on custom wheels, take your time and

use extreme care in all tire servicing operations to pre-

vent damaging these costly wheels. Read and follow all

the instructions and acquaint yourself with this adapter

before use.

Adapter Usage Instructions

1. Before servicing aluminum or magnesium wheels

with a large rim ﬂange, install the 3/16-inch shim to pre-

vent the lower bead loosener from catching on, or dam-

aging the wheel.

To install 3/16-inch Shim: Depress the foot pedal until

the cylinder reaches the top of its stroke. Lay the lower

bead loosener shoe back and place the shim between

the small lower shoe and the shoe adjusting bar (ﬁgure

1). When loosening beads on wide ﬂanged rims, watch

the small lower shoe and make certain it clears the rim

ﬂange. If it does not, use the 1/4-inch shim or combine

both shims. Do not use shims on steel wheels.

Figure 1 - Installation of Shim

2. Place the spring and positioning cone over the cen-

ter post onto the table. The small end of the cone

points upward (ﬁgure 2).

Figure 2 - Place Spring and Positioning Cone on Post

3. Place the wheel over the center post onto the

table top, guiding the positioning pin into a lug hole. Be

sure the valve stem is in front of the operator.

Figure 3 - Place Wheel on Table Top

4. Place the adapter plate over the center post onto

the wheel with the large side (cushion side) down.

Figure 4 - Place Adapter Plate Over Wheel

Note: On some high center hub wheels where the

adapter assembly touches the hub of the wheel, the

spacer cushion must be used. Place the cushion on the

wheel, ledge side up, and place the adapter plate on top

of the cushion.

5. Turn the tire changer hold down cone over and

thread it onto the center post. Tighten it down securely

onto the adapter plate. Be sure the hold down cone is

tight.

6. On models 1010, 1010A, 2020, 2020A, 3030A and

3040A, install the black upper bead loosener protector

on the upper bead loosener nose to protect the wheel

from possible marring by the bead loosener guide.

Place the upper bead loosener shoe on the tire next to,

but not on, the rim. Be sure the top bead loosener

guide is engaged on the rim (ﬁgure 6). Depress the

foot pedal until both bead looseners complete their full

strokes. If the top bead is not completely loosened,

release the foot pedal until the machine completes the

full return cycle, then

depress the foot pedal

again. The ratchet effect of

the upper bead loosener will

deliver a deeper stroke.

Important: Use the sec-

ond stroke only if the upper

bead is not completely loos-

ened by the ﬁrst stroke.

7. Check detent control knob for proper setting.

Forward is used for all tire and rim combinations

except 15-inch x 4-inch - 4-1/2-inch, 16-inch x 5-inch - 5-

1/2-inch, and 17.5-inch x 5-1/2-inch - 6-1/2-inch.

Relocate detent knob by pushing it down and moving

forward or backward to the proper setting.

8. Install the combination tool end protectors.

9. Demount the tire in the usual manner. Make cer-

tain the plastic protector is positioned to completely

cover the end of the tool. Always apply plenty of rub-

ber lubricant to tire beads.

10. Mount the tire in the usual manner. Make cer-

tain the plastic protector is positioned to completely

cover the end of the tool. Always apply plenty of rub-

ber lubricant to tire beads.

Small Lower Bead Loosener Shoe

Adjustment

Important: Before attempting to loosen beads, make

sure small lower bead loosener shoe is in adjustment.

1. Clamp a 13-inch, 14-inch, or 15-inch wheel, with-

out tire, on the table top.

2. Depress the foot pedal and cycle the bead

loosener shoe through to the top of its stroke. Watch

closely and inspect the shoe/wheel clearance.

Clearance between the shoe and the wheel rim ﬂange

should be approximately 1/16-inch to 1/8-inch at all

points across the shoe edge. If the clearance is out of

range evenly across the shoe, it can be adjusted. If the

clearance is uneven across the shoe, it has been dam-

aged and must be straightened or replaced.

3. Adjust shoe by loosening the 3/8-inch c 1-1/4-inch

self-tapping bolt located just below the shoes on the

end of the power arm (ﬁgure 13). Add or remove shims

turning the small lower shoe into adjustment. Addition

of shims will increase the clearance, and removal of

shims will decrease the clearance. Additional shims

are available.

4. Retighten the self tapping bolt and recheck shoe

adjustment.

Tire failure under pressure can be haz-

ardous. Inspect the tire carefully for wear or

defects before seating or inﬂating. Never

use pressure beyond the tire industry rec-

ommendation of 40 PSI. Always lubricate

with approved lubricant and never damage

beads. Keep hands and entire body back

from inﬂating or inﬂated tire.

Special Safety Instructions

1. Never stand with any part of your body over the

tire during inﬂation process.

2. Before starting, release all air from the tire.

3. Place wheel on the table top with the narrow,

mounting side of the wheel up.

4. Position tire with valve stem directly in front of

operator.

5. Hand tighten hold down cone or adapter before

breaking beads, mounting, or demounting.

6. Use approved lubricant on all beads before seat-

ing, mounting, or demounting.

7. On units with Air-ﬂate, depress inﬂation pedal only

when seating or inﬂating the tire.

8. Loosen hold down cone on full turn immediately

after obtaining initial bead seal and before attempting

further inﬂation.

9. To seat beads, use a small amount of air intermit-

tently. Never exceed tire industry recommendation of

40PSI.

10. During inﬂation, observe pressure frequently

and avoid distraction to prevent over inﬂation.

11. When using a bead expander band, do not

exceed 5 PSI in the tire when the band is in place.
