Those are interesting, not sure if the notch is big enough for the lip on the steel rims. I just use a few small pieces of wood that I had laying around.
After I’ve pushed down one portion of the tire the bead is more likely to reset. So i throw a shim on one or both sides of the tool to keep the tire out of the bead. Then I reset on another side and repeat the process. I’ll be rebuilding the last rim here soon and I’ll make a video.

I use this one, similar to the one on the video. They don't recommend you use pneumatic tools with it... but I haven't had any problems.
I have to shim it with a piece of wood for each time I use the breaker. I have to break the bead in about 3-4 places before it frees itself from the steel rim.
