Location of Tire Inflation Cage

Provide at least three feet of clear space between the Tire Inflation Cage and building walls. When a tire fails, the explosive release of air will throw all movable objects in the path of the expanding compressed air.

The Tire Inflation Cage may be attached to a tire changer using a COATS Tire Inflation Cage bracket.

and around the cage area.

2. Be sure to clean tire and rim of any loose debris.
