Using the Duckhead Roller

1. Lubricate both tire beads liberally. Performance tires will require more lubrication than standard passenger car tires.

2. Mount the lower bead. In most cases, the lower bead will mount easily.

Note: Mounting the top bead can be very difficult when mounting new tires on performance and custom wheels. Proceed slowly and cautiously.

3. For top bead installation, rotate table top until the valve stem on wheel is 180 degrees ahead of the duckhead (9 o’clock position). Attach duckhead roller assembly to the duckhead using RoboArm™ to assist (fig 3).

3a. Make sure the duckhead roller assembly is fully

engaged on the arm bracket; with no gap (figure 4).
