Mounting a NASCAR Type Tire with a
Liner using the COATS PIT Tire Changer
Following are the steps:
1. Mount inspected wheel on faceplate and engage
lug pins. Next thread centering nut on shaft. If the plas-
tic protector is to be used, this would be the time to
install it with the small notch over the wheel’s inflation
valves.
2. Inspect tire and liner; next lubricate tire beads and
liner beads. Use ample amount of lubricant.
3. Position the tire/liner over rim and place duckhead
at the rim’s top edge; next position bottom bead of tire
onto duckhead; do not include lower liner bead.
4. Angle the tire as shown and press pedal to rotate
rim; first tire bead will mount onto rim; stop when
mounted.
5. Use rotation pedal (raise pedal upward) and
reverse rotation until the liner’s lower bead drops in a
mounting position on the duckhead. Next rotate wheel
in forward direction to mount lower bead of the liner.
