5.After that, place the bakelite ball of the RF-arm under the rim edge and let the wheel turn one or two revolutions, to push down the bead over 360°. Stop the rotation when the valve is 90° passed by the bakelite ball of the RF-arm (1/4 revolution).

6.In this position put the end of the rubber tube Ø25 under the rim edge, just after the bakelite ball of the RF-arm. Let the wheel turn with small sequential movements while putting in the complete rubber tube in-between rim edge and tyre bead.

Precaution : It is advisable to use manual traction on the under side of the tyre – just after the demounting tool – while starting the table turning, to avoid the wheel turning on its own without the tyre. This manual endeavours to prevent all damage to a valve with a pressure-sensor.
