4. Operating the Tire Changer (ME-T500)
The ME-T500 tire changer is designed for efficient mounting and demounting of tires. It features a robust 2.0HP motor and adjustable clamps for various wheel sizes.
4.1 Bead Breaking:
- Position the wheel on the side-mounted bead breaker. Ensure the tire is flush against the machine to prevent movement.
- Actuate the foot pedal to engage the bead breaker. Apply steady pressure to separate the tire bead from the rim.
- Repeat for both sides of the tire.

4.2 Demounting the Tire:
- Place the wheel onto the turntable, ensuring it is securely clamped. The adjustable clamps accommodate 12"-24" wheels.
- Position the mounting head (bird head) at the edge of the rim. Ensure the plastic protector is in place to prevent rim damage.
- Use a tire lever to lift the top bead over the mounting head.
- Rotate the turntable using the foot pedal to fully demount the top bead.
- Repeat the process for the bottom bead.

4.3 Mounting the Tire:
- Apply tire lubricant to both beads of the new tire and the rim edges.
- Place the bottom bead onto the rim, ensuring it is below the mounting head.
- Use the tire lever to guide the top bead over the mounting head while rotating the turntable.
- Inflate the tire using the integrated inflation hose with pressure gauge. Ensure the beads seat properly. Do not inflate tires while clampයන්ත්රය මත ed.

5. Operating the Wheel Balancer (ME-B620)
The ME-B620 wheel balancer ensures accurate wheel balancing for smooth vehicle operation. Refer to the balancer's specific display and button functions for precise weight placement.
5.1 Balancing Procedure:
- Mount the wheel securely onto the balancer shaft.
- Input the wheel's dimensions (diameter, width, offset) into the balancer's control panel.
- Initiate the spin cycle. The balancer will measure imbalances and display the required weight and location.
- Apply the correct balance weights to the indicated positions on the rim.
- Perform a final spin to verify balance. Adjust weights as necessary until the display shows zero imbalance.
