What should be paid attention to when operating the tyre changer?

Although the tyre changer can provide us with great convenience when changing tires in normal times, we must strictly abide by the usage specifications when operating the tyre changer to ensure safety and efficiency. The following are some important precautions that must be followed:

Work environment inspection: Before using the tyre changer, the equipment and debris that hinder the operation on and near the machine should be removed, and the various parts of the machine should be checked to see if they are normal. It is recommended to check it once before use every day to eliminate safety hazards in time and ensure that work efficiency will not be delayed due to failures during use.

Tire deflation: When removing the tire, first completely deflate the tire and remove all lead blocks on the steel rim. This step cannot be skipped to save time and be lazy. Safety first.

Separation of tire and steel rim: Before removing the tire, put the tire in the tire squeezing position, repeatedly rotate the tire and operate the squeezing arm to completely separate the tire and steel rim. During the squeezing process, hands and feet should be prevented from reaching into the squeezing arm.

Avoid bumping the equipment: Avoid bumping the equipment when the tire is moved to the disassembly and assembly table. Before stepping on the pedal to lock the steel ring, make sure there is no foreign matter between the chuck and the steel ring. Do not use your fingers to check whether the steel ring is placed correctly.

Use lubricant: Apply lubricant to the inner ring of the tire with a brush before disassembling the tire. Do not use mineral oil as a lubricant.

Use of crowbar: When using a crowbar to pick the edge of the tire to the bird's head, pay attention to the direction and strength of the crowbar. Never put your hand into the pried gap.

Tire inflation safety: Before inflating the tire, first confirm whether the tire pressure gauge is normal. Be sure to pay attention to safety when inflating. Pay attention to the pressure gauge to avoid over-pressure of the tire causing personal injury.

Daily cleaning and maintenance: At the end of each day's work, the machine body and the surrounding area must be cleaned and the rotating parts must be lubricated.

Personal protective equipment: Before operating the tire dismantling machine, the operator should wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including a helmet, goggles, earplugs, protective gloves and wear-resistant shoes.

Operator training: Operators must undergo professional training, be familiar with the structure, performance and operation methods of the tyre changer, and obtain relevant operation certificates.

Equipment stability: The tyre changer must be placed on a solid and stable ground, and ensure that the equipment is stable.

Equipment inspection: Before operating the tyre changer, check whether the equipment is intact, whether all parts are fastened and reliable, whether the power supply is normal, and whether the air pressure meets the requirements.

Concentrate attention: During the operation of the tyre changer, the operator must concentrate and must not be distracted or perform other irrelevant operations.

Operation area safety: When operating the tyre changer, it must be ensured that there are no other people around the operation area to prevent accidental injuries.

Use of special tools: During the operation of the tyre changer, it is prohibited to use damaged or worn tools, and special tools that meet the requirements must be used.

Follow the operating manual: During the operation of the tyre changer, it is prohibited to change the settings and parameters of the equipment at will, and the operation must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the operating manual.

Following these precautions can ensure the safety and effectiveness of the tyre changer operation.
