CAUTION: Avoid injury! 
Explosive separation of tire and 
rim parts is possible when they 
are serviced incorrectly: 

Do not attempt to mount a 
tire without the proper 
equipment and experience 
to perform the job. 

Do not inflate the tires above 
the recommended pressure. 

Do not weld or heat a wheel 
and tire assembly. Heat can 
cause an increase in air 
pressure resulting in an 
explosion. Welding can 
structurally weaken or 
deform the wheel. 

Do not stand in front or over 
the tire assembly when 
inflating. Use a clip-on chuck 
and extension hose long 
enough to allow you to stand 
to one side.
