EZ Open Install
The EZ Open Bag comes inside of a Shipping bag.
Be sure to remove the EZ Open Bag itself from the Shipping Bag, and remove the Shipping Clip prior to installing the bag into the tire.
Squeeze the tape between your thumb and forefinger before installing.
Carefully place the bag into the tire.
Keeping the tire vertical, “spoon” or "hammer" the second tire bead over the rim. And still keeping the tire vertical, follow the balance of the Staun beadlock mounting instructions.
Do not let the tire go horizontal until the entire mounting process is completed and both beadlock and tire are properly inflated.
Finishing Up...
- Tighten the tube valve stem nut.
- Lubricate both tire beads with a Windex-like product before starting this step. Inflate the beadlock until both tire beads are in full (air holding) contact with the rim. This will typically be less than 10 psi (0.66 bar) in the tube.
- Using the tire valve stem, pop both tire beads onto the rim. In some rare cases when the bead will not pop on, use the beadlock to finish the job.
- Remove the tire valve core to ensure that there is no interacting tire back pressure that could interfere with full beadlock inflation.
- Inflate the beadlock to 40 psi (2.6 bar) cold. This leaves room for temperature, pressure expansion. The maximum beadlock pressure is 50 psi (3.3 bar).
- Reinstall the tire valve stem and inflate to the tire to your desired pressure. Under all circumstances, the tire pressure should always be at least 5 psi less than the beadlock pressure and more difference is acceptable.
- Depress the tire valve stem for 5 seconds to ensure that air flows out of the tire. Air should readily come out as will happen when airing down. If not, the Air Channel must be reinstalled.
- With both beadlock and tire inflated, and both valve stem nuts tight, using a mild soap and water solution, check both tire beads and valve stems for leaks.
