1. Inspect and remove the source of the
puncture. NOTE: Some items may require
the use of pliers or similar tool to
remove. (see image A)

the package and install it onto the
installation tool.

4. Apply a liberal amount of glue onto the
plug prior to installation. The glue will act
as a lubricant for the plug during insertion
and as a bonding agent once it cures.

5. Using the installation tool, insert the plug
into the puncture making sure to leave at
least 1/2” remaining above the tire.
(see image E) Remove the installation tool
while carefully making sure that the plug
stays completely inside the puncture.

6. Although the plug will remain in place while
the tire is ridden slowly and safely back
to a location where it can be repaired, it
is recommended to clip the plug down to
approximately 1/4” from the tires outer most
surface. Note: Use of wire cutters or some
other sharp cutting device recommended.

7. Infl ate tire to recommended pressure
and check to see if the repair is holding
by applying soapy water solution to the
puncture area. Check puncture area and
tire pressure periodically to insure that the
repair is holding.


WARNING: It is not recommended that sidewall punctures be repaired.
Plugged repairs should not be considered permanent. Get tire
professionally repaired or replace as soon as possible. Ride slowly
after repair is made until professional repair can be performed as a
blowout, at high speed can result in injury or death.
