Clean the Clamping Table Daily

Remove dirt, rubber dust and lubricant residue so the wheel can be clamped securely and evenly.

Inspect the Mount Head and Tooling

Check the condition of the mount head, bead breaker parts and plastic protectors to avoid wheel damage.

Check Air System Performance

Verify that air pressure is stable and inspect hoses and fittings for leaks.

Lubricate Moving Parts
