Abstract
In a tire removal processing, a clamping step and a tire removing step are executed. In the clamping step, a tire is clamped by an upper support and a lower support by bringing the lower support into contact with a lower side wall of the tire in a state where a lower rim is fitted in the tire and the upper support is in contact with an upper side wall of the tire. In the tire removing step, the tire is detached from the lower rim by relatively moving the lower rim vertically downward with respect to a lower support while the clamping step is maintained.
