This model requires a 14 to 15 CFM air source at
175 PSI maximum pressure. The safe operating pressure
range for this model is between 110 PSI and 175 PSI at
the machine. A 1/4” ID hose (or pipe) for connection to
the machine is satisfactory. Sufficient air pressure assures
good performance.
1. Connect the Air Supply to the Air Drier / Oiler. A proper
fitting (not supplied) to match the supply line of the air sup-
ply connection is required. Use Teflon tape (not supplied)
on the NPT thread of the fitting.
This connection is located on the right side of the rear
of the machine. (See Fig 9.1)
OILER ADJUSTMENT
1. Check Oil Level on Oil Level Gauge. (See Fig. 9.2)
If Oil level is low refer to Section 15, Page 30 for filling in-
structions.
2. With the air source connected, depress the Bead
Breaker Pedal to operate the Bead Breaker.
3. Observe the sight glass and adjust the oil flow of the
oiler by turning the Oiler Adjustment Screw by using a small
screwdriver so that 2-3 drops of oil drip through the sight
glass for each operation of the Bead Breaker Pedal. (See
Fig 9.3)

uRemember to remove all weights from both sides of the
wheel. Weights left on the back side of the wheel may cause
the wheel to be clamped un-level. This may result in the
combination mount/demount head contacting the rim causing
scratches. On alloy wheels, always rotate the wheel one turn
after setting the head to ensure proper wheel chucking.
u Always review nicks and scratches with owners of
expensive wheel and tire combinations prior to servicing.
u Review the performance wheel section of this manual
prior to servicing performance tire/wheel combinations.
BEAD LOOSENING
1. Deate tire completely by removing the valve core from
the valve stem. (See Fig 11.1)
2. The clamps on the table top may extend beyond the
table top itself. To avoid damaging the clamps and/or
wheel, move the clamps to their full inward position before
positioning a tire for bead loosening.
3. Always loosen the bead on the narrow side of the wheels
drop center rst. (See Fig. 11.5 on page 16 for description
of the drop center)
4. Pull the bead breaker blade away from the machine and
roll the wheel into position.
5. The Bead Breaker Arm Adjustment Rod limits or extends
the movement of the arm. Set the Rod as appropriate to the
tire and wheel being serviced. (See Fig. 11.2)
6. Position the bead breaker blade against the tire next
to, but not on, the rim or the sidewall of the tire. Press the
breaker pedal to actuate the blade and loosen the bead. It
may be necessary to loosen the bead in multiple locations
around the tire. Use extra care in positioning the bead
breaker blade on larger wheels/tires, and on alloy wheels.
(See Fig. 11.3)
7. Turn wheel around and repeat procedure on the other
side of the wheel. This should be the long side of the drop
center. It will be easier to clamp the wheel to the table top if
the lower bead is loosened last. (See Fig. 11.4)
8. Determine the mounting side of the wheel. The mounting
side is the narrow side of the drop center. (See Fig. 11.5
on page 16)

The following instructions help identify how to properly mount wheels on
the tire changer turntable. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to
tire and/or wheel damage, equipment damage or failure, serious personal
injury or death to operator or bystanders or damage to property.
IMPORTANT WHEEL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. It is important to understand that tires and/or tire beads do not stretch. It is nearly impossible to mount or
dismount the top bead of the tire unless the top bead of the tire is positioned deep into the drop center area of the
wheel.
2. Find the position of the drop center on the wheel. Clearly identify the Drop Center, Narrow Side and Wide Side
flanges.
3. The tire must ALWAYS be demounted or mounted with the wheel positioned on the turntable with the Narrow
Side facing upward and the deepest part of the Drop Center facing upward.
WARNING! - The wheel illustrated above in diagram A has little or no prominent drop center. These are not DOT
approved wheel configurations. The tire or wheel - or both - can be damaged during mounting procedures causing the tire
to explode under pressure, resulting in serious injury or death. If you attempt to mount/demount this type of wheel, use
extreme caution.
IMPORTANT NOTE – Most aftermarket and many OEM performance wheels are REVERSE DROP-CENTER
configurations. These wheels MUST be mounted on the turntable with the hub or wheel-face POSITIONED DOWNWARD
on the turntable and the Narrow Side and deep part of the Drop Center facing upward.

ALLOY WHEELS-
Some manufacturers offer wheels with little or no drop
center. These are not DOT approved. The tire or wheel - or
both - can be damaged and the tire could explode under
pressure, resulting in serious injury or death. If you attempt
to mount/demount this type of wheel, use extreme caution.
(See Fig 12.1)
EUROPEAN PERFORMANCE WHEELS
(ASYMMETRICAL HUMP)-
Some European wheels have very large humps except
near the valve hole. On these wheels, the beads should be
loosened at the valve hole on both the upper and lower
sides first.
WHEELS WITH TIRE PRESSURE WARNING
SENSORS-
Performance wheels on some vehicles have a pres-
sure sensor strapped to the rim opposight the valve hole
or mounted on the valve stem. On these wheels, the beads
should be loosened at the valve hole on both upper and
lower sides first. (See Fig 12.2)

Position One - Tire Pressure - With the Inflation Hose
attached to the tire valve and the pedal in this position, the
air gauge will register the air pressure in the tire. Whenever
your foot is removed from the pedal, it will return to this
position. (See Fig 14.2)
Position Two - Tire Inflation - With the Inflation Hose
attached to the tire valve and the pedal in this position, line
pressure is allowed to flow through the valve and into the tire
for inflation. Tire pressure is not indicated on the gauge in
this position. (See Fig 14.3)
TIRE INFLATION
The unit is equipped with a Pressure Limiter/Regulator to
assist the operator with proper tire inflation. The Pressure
Limiter will keep most car and light truck tires from inflating
beyond 60 PSI (smaller tires may reach higher pressures).
It is the operators responsibility to follow all instructions and
to control inflation pressure as specified in these instruc-
tions. (See Fig 14.4)
WARNING!
TIRE FAILURE UNDER PRESSURE IS HAZARDOUS.
THIS TIRE CHANGER IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A

STAGES OF INFLATION
Tire inflation is performed in four steps: Restraint, Bead
Seal, Bead Seat, and Inflation. Read the explanation
of each step and understand them thoroughly before
proceeding and refer to them as necessary to verify that
you are proceeding properly and safely.
STAGE ONE / WHEEL RESTRAINT
As an added safety precaution, a wheel restraint device has
been added to protect operators during tire inflation.
1. Swing the Assist Tower to the side of the wheel and
insert the restraint device as shown. (See Fig 14.5)
2. Make sure the restraint tool is centered in the center hub
of the wheel then press down on the left hand control valve.
(See Fig 14.6) STAGE TWO / BEAD SEALING
1. Position valve stem in front of operator and connect the
inflation hose. (See Fig 14.7)
2. Hold tire up against upper edge of the wheel. Be sure tires
top bead is over the bottom of the valve stem. (See Fig 14.8)
3. Briefly depress Inflation Pedal and hold, less than 1 full
second, to begin air flow through tire valve. (See Fig 14.9)
Fig 14.5
WARNING!
OPERATOR SHOULD KEEP HANDS, ARMS, AND
ENTIRE BODY AWAY FROM THE TIRE DURING THE
FOLLOWING BEAD SEAT AND INFLATION PROCE-
DURES. DO NOT STAND OVER TIRE, AS PERSONAL
INJURY COULD RESULT FROM INFLATING TIRE.
AVOID DISTRACTION DURING INFLATION. CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE FREQUENTLY TO AVOID OVER
INFLATION. EXCESSIVE PRESSURE CAN CAUSE
TIRES TO EXPLODE, CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH TO OPERATOR OR BYSTANDER.
DANGER!
THIS MACHINE IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A RESTRAIN-
ING DEVICE FOR EXPLODING TIRES, TUBES, OR
RIMS. KEEP HANDS AND BODY CLEAR AT ALL TIMES
AND AS FAR BACK AS POSSIBLE DURING INFLATION.
DO NOT LEAN OVER THE TIRE WHILE INFLATING.
AN EXPLODING TIRE, RIM OR OTHER WHEEL COM-
PONENT CAN CAUSE DEATH TO OPERATOR AND/OR
BYSTANDER. REMAIN CLEAR AT ALL TIMES.
WARNING!
THIS DEVICE IS A RESTRAINT DEVICE ONLY. IT WILL
NOT PROTECT OPERATORS IN THE EVENT OF
CATASTROPHIC TIRE/WHEEL RUPTURE OR FAILURE.
ALWAYS USE EXTREME CAUTION DURING THE INFLA-
TION PROCEDURE. AS AN ADDED SAFETY PRECAU-
TION, SAFETY CAGES THAT CONFORM TO OSHA
STANDARD 1910.177 ARE RECOMMENDED.
CAUTION!

4. Depress inflation pedal and open the Turbo-Blast Valve
The blast of air from the Turbo Blast Nozzle will expand tire
and seal the beads.
5. Release the inflation pedal. Verify that both beads are
completely sealed to the wheel. Repeat these steps if beads
have not sealed. It may be necessary to wait a few seconds
for the air storage tank to recover before attempting again.
If tire and wheel are properly lubricated and operator cannot
achieve bead seal after a few attempts, the valve core should
be removed from the valve stem to allow more air flow into
the tire to assist with bead seal. After bead seal is achieved,
remove the chuck and reinstall the valve core.
STAGE THREE / BEAD SEATING
Bead seating usually occurs on the long tapered side of the
wheel first and the shorter side last. Bead seating will usu-
ally require at least 7 PSI in the tire. 40 PSI is the maximum
safe pressure at this stage regardless of tire operating pres-
sure. Most European import cars and many aftermarket
alloy wheels are very tight and can be difficult to bead seat.
Also note that asymmetrical hump and run-flat tires are
extremely difficult to bead seat. Follow tire manufacturer’s
recommended procedure for bead seating.
1. Once tire pressure is indicated on the pressure gauge
continue to inject air into the tire in short intervals. Check
the pressure frequently. Stand back during bead seat. Keep
hands, arms, and entire body away from tire during this
procedure. Tire beads should move outward and “pop” into
their bead seat position as pressure inside the tire increas-
es. If this does not happen, a problem exists. Investigate
carefully. (See Fig 14.12)
2. Release air pressure from the tire by pressing the manual
Pressure Relief Valve. (See Fig 14.13)
WARNING!
OPERATOR SHOULD KEEP HANDS, ARMS, AND ENTIRE
BODY AWAY FROM THE TIRE DURING THE FOLLOW-
ING BEAD SEAT AND INFLATION PROCEDURES. DO
NOT STAND OVER TIRE, AS PERSONAL INJURY COULD
RESULT FROM INFLATING TIRE. AVOID DISTRACTION
DURING INFLATION. CHECK TIRE PRESSURE FREQUENT-
LY TO AVOID OVER INFLATION. EXCESSIVE PRESSURE
CAN CAUSE TIRES TO EXPLODE, CAUSING SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH TO OPERATOR OR BYSTANDER.

STAGE FOUR / TIRE INFLATION
1. Make sure both beads are seated. When both beads are
seated, the tire is ready for ination.
2. Replace the valve core if it was removed.
3. Depress the Ination Pedal to inate the tire. DO NOT
STAND OVER TIRE DURING INFLATION.
4. Do not inate the tire above the manufacturer’s recom-
mended pressure as stamped on the tire sidewall. The
typical ination pressure for automobile tires is between 24
and 45 PSI. Light truck ination pressure typically covers a
wider range. Release air pressure from the tire by pressing
the manual Pressure Relief Valve.

SECTION 15
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all the maintenance instructions provided
in this manual to keep the machine in good operating
condition. Regular inspections and proper maintenance
are essential to preventing accidents and injuries. These
instructions will help you service the unit. Instructions are
for a person with some mechanical ability and training. No
attempt has been made to describe all basic steps such
as how to loosen or tighten fasteners. Basic procedures
such as cycling systems and checking operation of the
equipment are not fully described since they have been
described previously in this manual. Do not attempt to
perform work beyond your ability or at which you have no
experience. If you need assistance, call an authorized ser-
vice center or contact the factory.
DAILY
tCheck the tire pressure gauge function, and check the
accuracy monthly. Use a pressurized tire and a high quality
pressure gauge. If the gauge is defective, replace it imme-
diately.
tMake sure all fasteners are securely tightened and all
guards and covers are in place.
tCheck for worn, damaged or missing parts including
grips and protective covers. Replace them before allowing
the unit to be used.
tInspect the unit and check to be certain that all systems
are operating normally. Follow detailed inspection and
testing procedures as specified for various components at
regular intervals.
MONTHLY
t Pivot Points, assist tower vertical shaft should be
cleaned with a vaporizing solvent and then lubricated with
chassis grease. (See Fig 15.1)
tCheck adjustment of the mount/demount head.
tCheck the condition and adjustment of the turntable
drive belt.
tCheck function of the Inflation Pedal pressure lim-
iter/ regulator. The pressure regulator should never be
adjusted to exceed 60 PSI.
tClean the table top, clamps, steel mount/demount
head, and other working surfaces with a vaporizing solvent.
tReplace any damaged or missing safety decals, avail-
able from the factory.
Mount/Demount Tool Head Adjustment
To adjust tool head clearance, adjust locking nut up or
down until lift clearance is 1/8” to 3/16”. Recheck clearance.
(See Fig 15.2)
Mount/Demount Head Cleaning
Clean dirt and debris from the mount/demount tool roller
with small screw driver or pick. Lubricate with light pen-
etrating oil. (See Fig. 15.3)

AIR DRIER /OILER MAINTENANCE
Check oil and water levels regularly, and perform these
maintenance items weekly:
1. Observe the sight glass on the water separator/filter unit.
(See Fig 15.4)
2. If water is observed, drain by pushing up on the drain
plug at the bottom of the reservoir. (See Fig 15.5)
3. Disconnect air supply to machine. (See Fig 15.6)
4. Add oil to the lubricator if the fluid level is below the
middle of the gauge. Unscrew the Fill Cap, add SAE 10W
non-detergent oil or an air tool oil if necessary.
(See Fig 15.7)
5. Reconnect the air supply when service/adjustments are
complete.
6. With the air source connected, depress the Bead
Breaker Pedal to operate the Bead Breaker.
7. Observe the sight glass and adjust the oil flow of the
oiler by turning the Oiler Adjustment Screw so that 2-3
drops of oil drip through the sight glass for each operation
of the Bead Breaker Pedal. (See Fig 15.8)
(Either reservoir may be removed for cleaning by turning
the reservoir counter-clockwise and pulling down.)

Inflation Pedal Pressure Limiter
Maintenance
The Inflation Pedal pressure limiter helps prevent inflation
of standard size or larger tires or tubes beyond 60 PSI to
minimize risk of explosion. This device is for the safety of
the operator and bystanders. Proper operation of the pres-
sure limiter is essential to safe operation of the machine.
(See Fig 15.9)
Check operation of the pressure limiter as follows at least
once a month:
1. Remove tires and/or wheels from the machine.
2. Connect the Inflation Hose to an empty service tank with
a pressure gauge (the gauge should read 0). Use a certified
tank with at least 250 PSI pressure rating. (See Fig 15.10)
3. Depress Inflation Pedal to start air flow through the
hose and into the tank. Maintain a steady pressure for
constant flow.
4. Watch the rising pressure on the tank gauge and the
gauge on the machine. As tank pressure reaches 60 PSI,
the pressure limiter should stop the air flow automatically.
Both gauges should read 60 PSI ± 5 PSI.
5. If the pressure exceeds 60 PSI, adjust the knob on
the regulator by lifting the locking cover and turning
COUNTERCLOCKWISE. After adjustment is made, secure
cover in the locked position. (See Fig 15.11)
6. Repeat steps 1-6. Readjust if necessary.
7. After pressure limit has been set, check the manual
release valve function by pressing the button and releasing
pressure from the tank until it reaches 50 PSI. Release air
inside tank and disconnect Inflation Hose. (See Fig 15.12)
WARNING!
THE INFLATION PRESSURE LIMITER IS
PRESET AT THE FACTORY AND SHOULD NEED
NO ADJUSTMENT. ADJUST ONLY IF PRESSURE
EXCEEDS 60 PSI. OPERATING A TIRE CHANGER
WITH A DEFECTIVE, IMPROPERLY ADJUSTED, OR
