PUNCTURE PROOF FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Fitting puncture proof tyres to 1-piece wheels is a very straightforward process, providing you have the right equipment. You will need access to a hydraulic press, the correct fitting cone and some lubrication, like tyre bead paste and a spare puncture proof tyre.

  • 1Place the spare puncture proof tyre on the base of the press. (This provides space for the fitting cone once the tyre has been fitted).

  • 2Now place the tyre being fitted on top of the spare tyre.

  • 3Take the relevant size fitting cone, lubricating thoroughly before placing the smaller end of the taper into the central hole of the tyre.

  • 4Finally, put the wheel on the top of the cone.

  • 5Ensure that everything is centred and level before proceeding.

  • 6Keeping a close eye on progress, proceed by bringing steady downward pressure onto the hub of the wheel.

  • 7Once the cone has passed through the tyre and the wheel snaps into place, release the pressure of the press. Check that the tyre is seated on both sides of the wheel.
