Chapter 3: Adjustment 32
To install a tire on the wheel
To repair a tube leak, apply a patch to the
puncture on the tube, or replace the tube.
1. Follow the Inspection procedures in the
Wheels section to check the rim and inside
of the tire.
If you replace the tube or tire, make sure the
new tube or tire is the same size as the old
one, or consult your dealer for compatibility
of different sizes. The size can be found on
the side of the tire.
2. Inflate the tube until it begins to take shape.
3. Place the tube in the tire.
4. Insert the valve stem through the hole
in the rim.
5. Install the first bead onto the rim with your
hands (Figure 53). Start at the valve stem.
6. Push the tire and tube over so the tube is
inside the rim (Figure 54).
7. Push the second bead into the rim with your
hands. Start at the valve stem.
Be careful not to pinch the tube between
the rim and the tire (Figure 55) when you
mount the tire.
8. Push the base of the valve stem up into the
tire so that it is not caught between a tire
bead and the rim.
9. Inflate the tire to about half pressure and
then check that the tire bead is properly
seated in the rim (Figure 56).
10. Deflate the tire again. This will help avoid
any pinching of the tube.
11. Inflate the tire to the pressure indicated on
the side of the tire. Do not over-inflate.
