Repair the flat tyre.

•Remove the valve cap.

•Let the air out of the tyre by pressing the pin in the centre of the valve in.

•Remove the 5 Allen screws (3)

•Take the tyre and the inner tube off of the rim halves.

•Repair the inner tube and re-fit, or replace it with a new one.

NOTE

In case the old inner tube is to be repaired and used again, and it happens to get wet during repair, then it is easier to re-fit it if you powder it lightly with talcum powder.

•Pump up the tyre a little.

•Re-position the Allen screws in the rim and tighten them firmly.

•Check to make sure that the tyre is squarely in place on the rim.
