Operator Protective Equipment
Personal protective equipment helps make tire servic­ing safer. However, equipment alone does not take the place of safe operating practices. Always wear durable work clothing during tire service activity. Loose fitting clothing should be avoided. Tight fitting leather gloves are recommended to protect operator’s hands when handling worn tires and wheels. Sturdy leather work shoes with steel toes and oil resistant soles should be used by tire service personnel to help prevent injury in typical shop activities. Eye protection is essential during tire service activity. Safety glasses with side shields, goggles, or face shields are acceptable. Back belts pro­vide support during lifting activities and are also helpful in providing operator protection. Consideration should also be given to the use of hearing protection if tire service activity is performed in an enclosed area, or if noise levels are high.
Safety Devices
This machine has several protectors to prevent com­pression or crushing hazards to body areas. Keep these devices properly maintained and do not disable or in any way shortcut the safety controls and opertations.
There is a micro-switch protection under the chuck arm to prevent compression.
The rotation speed of the chuck has been limited to a maximum of 8 rpm to prevent dragging or en-trapping hazards.
There is an emergency button on the portable control unit.
Important Safety Instructions
Only properly tr ained personnel should serv­ice tires on the 9500R. Read all safety and operating instructions thoroughly before using the tire changer.
ALWAYS
remove all wheel weights and the valve core
to deflate the tire before servicing.
ALWAYS
cover the electric motor and switch box before hosing down the tire changer. Be sure water does not enter the motor or switch box.
ALWAYS
disconnect the electric power and air supply
before attempting any maintenance.
ALWAYS
keep all working surfaces clean and free of
tire lube buildup.
ALWAYS
be aware of what each person is and will do
before attempting any two-person operation.
Safety Precautions
A. Before servicing any tires, wheels or rims all per­sonnel should receive thorough training for the proper servicing of truck tires, wheels and rims. Consult with your local city, country state, and national safety and health administrators to receive clarification of any pub­lications available governing this serious matter.
B. During the use and maintenance of the machine it is mandatory to comply with all laws and regulations for accident prevention.
C. The electric power source must have a ground cable and the ground cable of the machine (yellow and green) must be connected to the ground cable of the power source.
D. Before any maintenance or repairs are accom­plished the machine must be disconnected from the electric supply. The unit should only be serviced by a qualified service technician.
E. Never wear ties, chains or other loose articles when using, maintaining or repairing the machine. Long hair is also dangerous and should be kept under a hat. The user must wear proper safety attire, i.e. gloves, safety shoes and glasses.
F. Maintain all electric cords in good repair.
G. Keep safety features in place and in w orking order.
H. Keep working area clean. Cluttered areas invite
accidents.
I. Avoid dangerous environments. Don’t use power tools or electrical equipment in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain.
L. Nobody should be allowed to stand next to or near the wheel, when mounting/demounting a tire or clamp­ing a wheel.
M. Keep the work area well lighted.
N. Properly anchor the machine to the floor.

NEVER
use
antifreeze, silicone, or petroleum base lubricants.
ALWAYS
clean and inspect the wheel before servic-
ing.
NEVER
mount a tire on a damaged or rusty wheel. Wheel damage or rust may cause tire or wheel failure during inflation. Explosion from failure may result in severe injury or death of the operator and bystanders.
ALWAYS be sure the bead opposite the tool is in the drop center before rotating the tire when demounting or mounting to avoid damage to the tire beads.
Inflation Safety
ALWAYS follow all applicable Local, State, and Federal Codes, Rules, and Regulations; such as the Federal OSHA Standard Number 1910.177.
NEVER
seat beads or inflate a tire on the tire changer. This tire changer is not designed as a safety device or stand for bead seating or inflation.

tion cage.
The following safety instructions are for one piece wheels only. Refer to the manuf acturer’s or R.M.A. pro­cedures for multipiece wheels.
ALWAYS
use an approved inflation chamber or infla­tion cage equipped with a grip chuck and a remote infla­tion gauge and valve. DO NOT OVER INFLATE! Tire or wheel failure during and after inflation may result in an explosion capable of causing severe injury or death.
ALWAYS
inflate the tire to manufacturer’s recom-
mended cold operating pressure.
NEVER
reinflate a tire that has been run underinflated or flat without first demounting the tire and checking for wheel and tire damage.
ALWAYS
inspect the tire interior for loose or broken cords, cuts, penetrating objects, and other damage to the carcass. Discard tires that cannot be properly repaired.
NEVER
rework, weld, heat or braze wheels.
NEVER
strike the tire or wheel with a hammer.
ALWAYS
be sure the tire diameter exactly matches the wheel diameter.
Tire f ailur e under pr essur e can be hazar dous. Place the wheel inside an approved inflation chamber or cage before inflating. Use an approved remote inflation valve, hose, and gauge. ALWAYS wear safety goggles for eye protection.Do not stand beside the wheel or cage during inflation. Keep hands and other parts of the body out of the cage during inflation. Observe the tire pressure fre­quently. Do not exceed the manufacturer’s recommended maximum inflation pressure. Failure to follow these instructions may cause the tire and rim to separate with tremendous force, resulting in serious per­sonal injury or death.
