Repair Unit Application
The tire must be in the relaxed position when the repair unit is installed. Do not spread the beads excessively.
Two-Piece Plug and Repair Units
- If applicable, install the repair unit so that the alignment is correct.
- Center the repair unit over the injury and stitch down thoroughly with the stitching tool, working from the center out.
- Being careful not to stretch the plug material, cut the plug flush with the outer tread.
Combination Repair/Plug Units
- Pull the plug through the injury until the repair just reaches the liner. Stitch down thoroughly.
- Follow the repair material manufacturer's recommendations for further installation instructions.
Consult your repair material supplier for the proper stitching tool.
