180 degrees and stop and observe
the bead mounting; if OK, apply
more downward force to the rim.

90 degrees and stop, this gives the
bead time to relax and began to roll
into place. Rotate the tire/rim
about another 45 degrees and the
bead should snap into location.

tion, twist the manual bead lock
device from the rim.

Inflation Of PAX Tire
Once the tire is completely
mounted, bead positioning is
very important to assure the
tire balance remains consis-
tent and does not reposition
after mounting on a vehicle.
601. Begin by introducing 10 PSI
of air pressure into the tire.
602. Bring the small roller down
to the edge of the rim and apply a
small amount of pressure. Rotate
the tire/wheel two complete revo-
lutions. This should position the tire
bead to be concentric with the rim.

the above (two complete revolu-
tions).
