To use the Tire Station without an air tank:
• To use the Tire Station without an air tank thread the short and long rods into the ring assemblies
as instructed in Item 1 above, but continue to thread the lower rods in until each is bottomed out and
tighten with a wrench in the bottomed out position. Note: We recommend applying grease to the
threads prior to assembly.
• Attach the top and base ring assemblies together as described in step 3 above.

The Tire Station is now ready to be used without an air tank (Fig 7).

For Transport:

Motion Pro recommends that you remove the center rod on the top ring assembly
to avoid damage to the center rod during transportation.

To use the Tire Station with an air tank:

1. Thread the short tie rod into the top ring assembly (the ring
assembly with Tire Station decals) in a clockwise direction until all rods
are even in height with 1 to 2 inches of threads showing. Thread the
long tie rods into the base ring assembly (no decals) by turning the rod
counter-clockwise (left-hand thread) until all three rods are at an equal
height with about 1 to 2 inches of thread showing (Fig 1). Note: We
recommend applying grease to the threads prior to assembly.

2. Place your air tank onto the base ring assembly (Fig 2). Set the top
ring assembly over the top of the air tank. Adjust the top and bottom
rods such that there is an equal amount of threads showing on the top
and on the bottom, and the top and bottom rods are nearly touching
each other (Fig 3). Note: The threaded rods must be screwed in a
minimum of one inch into the ring assemblies in order to hold the tank
securely.

3. Connect the top and base ring assemblies together with the locking
collar, making sure that the locking collar is properly seated on the
threads and turns freely. Use a wrench to tighten the locking collar
(15/16” or 24 mm open end wrench, or adjustable wrench) while
securing the lower rod with a second wrench so that it does not turn
(Fig 4).

4. Make sure your air tank is firmly clamped between the top and base
ring assemblies by turning each of the three lower tie rod hex fittings.
Tighten each rod evenly, and not more than one full turn at a time, just
enough to secure the air tank from moving inside the unit. Turning the
tie rod in a counter-clockwise direction will tighten the ring assemblies
together and turning the tie rods in a clockwise direction will loosen
them (Fig 5). Note: To prevent damage to your air tank do not over
tighten.

5. Thread the center rod into the top ring assembly and the Tire
Station is now ready for use (Fig 6).
