Mounting - Corghi Artiglio 500 Betriebsanleitung

To make full use of all a tyre's characteristics and have the necessary guarantees of safety
in use, a series of precautions must be taken when choosing and fitting tyres.
The tyre's dimensional, construction and service characteristics are provided by the
markings on its sidewall.
Once the appropriate tyre has been chosen from those approved for use on the vehicle,
the mounting procedure can begin.
ATTENTION
When mounting a new tyre, replace the inner tube in tube type tyres and the valve in
tubeless types.
ATTENTION
Always check that the tyre/rim combination is correct in terms of compatibility (tube-
less tyre on tubeless rim, tube type tyre on tube type rim) and geometrical size (keying
diameter, cross-section width, Off-Set and shoulder profile) before mounting.
Also check that rims are not deformed, that their fixing holes have not become oval,
that they are not encrusted or rusty and that they do not have sharp burrs on the valve
holes.
Check that the tyre is in good condition with no signs of damage.
1 • Preparing the tyre (fig.22)
- Grease both the tyre beads (A).
- Place the tyre on the rim (B)
2 • Positioning the tool head (fig.23)
- Operate control 1 to move the tool head into the working position (A).
N.B.: The tool is already in the correct position for mounting the tyre, unless the type of
rim has been changed.
3 • Mounting the bottom bead (fig.24)
- Place the bottom bead of the tyre underneath the tool (A) and at the same time apply a
little pressure to the tyre by hand while starting to rotate the wheel (pedal 1) for easier
bead insertion.
- Rotate until tyre mounting is complete.
4 • Positioning the top bead (fig.25)
- Position the top bead of the tyre as clearly shown in fig. 25.
Take care that the tyre does not slip underneath the tool.
