IT IS NECESSARY TO KNOW
THAT:
WARNING
Do not operate the compressor
for more than 20
minutes. Risk of overheating.
The sealer included in the quick repairing
kit, good for temperatures between –30°C
e +80°C, is not adequate for permanent
fixing.
The liquid inside the tyre can be easily removed
with water.
The sealer has no expire date.
INFLATING PROCEDURE
1) Place the wheel in the position illustrated
in the figure (A-fig. 13) for the operation
with the valve, then engage the
handbrake.
2) Screw the filling pipe (B-fig. 14) to
the bottle (C).
3) Unscrew the tyre valve plug, remove
the element inside the valve by using the
appropriate tool (D-fig. 15); be careful
not to place it on the sand or on a dirty surface
.
4) Introduce the filling pipe (B-fig. 16)
in the tyre valve, keep the bottle (C-fig.
16) with the pipe directed downwards, then
press it so that the whole sealer can get into
the tyre.

5) Screw again the element inside the
valve with the tool (D-fig. 17).
6) Use the appropriate lever (E-fig. 18)
to insert and clamp the air compressor pipe
(F) to the tyre valve.
7) Start the engine, insert the plug (Gfig.
19) in the lighter (or socket 12V) and
inflate the tyre according to the right pressure
value (see “Cold inflation pressures” in
the “Technical specification” chapter). You
are advised to check the tyre pressure value
on the pressure gauge (H-fig. 18) with
the compressor off, in order to have a more
accurate reading.
