How to Perform Planned Maintenance 7-17
Section 7. Planned Maintenance and Lubrication
WARNING
!
Check tire pressure from a position facing the tread of the
tire, not from the side. Use a long-handled gauge to keep
your body away from the side. If tires are low, do not
operate and do not add air. Check with a mechanic. The
tire may require removal and repair. Incorrect (low) tire
pressure can reduce the stability of your lift truck. Do not
operate truck with low tire pressure. For proper cold
inflation pressure, check the CLARK specifications.
Disassembling the Split Rim Wheel
When you disassemble the split-rim wheel,
NEVER remove the tire before you deflate
the tire pressure. First, deflate the tire
pressure completely and then loosen the
wheel bolts and nuts. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury. This work
should be performed only by a trained and
authorized mechanic.
