    • When separating the tire bead from the wheel, position the bead breaking fixture 90 degrees from the valve stem.
    • Position the mounting/dismounting head so the tire iron, or pry bar can be inserted slightly clockwise of the sensor body when prying the tire bead up and over the mounting/dismounting head.
    • Using the tire machine, rotate the tire/wheel assembly clockwise when transferring the tire bead to the out side of the wheel rim.
    • Repeat items for inner bead.
