I ran a wheel shop with this machine. The drum will come down and seat the bead on the rim. It will say "seating bead" on the screen. Once that is done it will stop the rim and spin it the other direction still on the drum. We did a LOT of high end cars and never once had a problem. Its really the best money can buy!
