Push the mounted part of the trye further in towards the centre. It will give you the extra room you need.
Be careful not to pinch the tube and make sure you stand back when you re inflate it. Centralise the centre as best you can before you start to re inflate.

Thats where a jack leg on a 3cx comes in handy .Did it come off ok ?
As said above the smaller diameter of the wheel towards the centre is to allow the tyre to be pushed into and give enough room to pull it over the rim.
With the pretty cheap prices of tyre fitters these days, providing there is one close it just isn’t worth the hassle of doing yourself.

Im not sure that the tyre mounting paste you are using is up to the job!
I would suspect that the tube is just sitting under the bead, but if you've checked that, then spin the wheel so that the mounted bit is at the top, and with a club hammer only tap the tyre first downwards, then over the rim.
Then again sometimes they just refuse to budge, good luck

I thought JCB front wheels were usually split rims? You remove the collar to remove the tyre?

Depends on the age of the machine, and they're barstewards to do when they get older anyway.
And you need plenty lubrication as well.

They are but this isn’t a JCB.
@Greenbeast if your struggling better to take the wheel off and do it on some clean concrete,also clean the tyre,nothing worse than a stone in the mud to puncture it again.

Yes take it off. I am not sure if you are showing putting the tyre on or taking it off. With the wheel off on the concrete you will be able to push the tyre into the rim which will give you more to work with. Is the bead fully broken?

My thoughts were that it would be a right basket to hold down and give it some with a lever............ but them I'm not much over 60kg!

give it some fairy liquid to help it along. On the tyre levers too so it slides down them.

If its on the machine then you must have it off the ground, or it will never go on. If its on the concrete then put a wood block under the rim to get the thing in the air, stand up on the tyre and hit it with your club hammer.

you need to push the bead that still on the rim more to the centre, as the centre diameter ios smaller you get more bead to play with,
its a rights sh!t hole there get it off on some clean floor.

If you had the wheel off and washed clean you could lye it on the floor and use your feet too push the part of tyre shown by the green arrows down where the groove is for more room and lever the tyre on at same timeyou need to push the bead that still on the rim more to the centre, as the centre diameter ios smaller you get more bead to play with,

Back when I had a dairy herd, every year I had a slurry spreading gang come in to empty the slurry pit. 4 or 5 big rotor spreaders and a Poclain 360, the driver of which was the foreman and tyre changer. Every time that they came, they seemed to get a puncture in a spreader tyre. He would mend the puncture in the mud.
It's not surprising that the had so many punctures.
