TIRE PRESSURE
TIRE PRESSURE
Inappropriate tire pressure is a primary cause for
tire damage. Insufficient tire pressure will
damage internal carcass of tire. Repeated
excessive bending will damage or break the
carcass. Excessive pressure will also cause
premature damage of tire.

Continuous operation will produce heat and
increase pressure on tire. But such phenomenon
was already taken into account when designing a
tire. Do not try to remove normally increased air
because tires may be crushed or overinflated.
The three major causes for excessive heat and
pressure of tire are insufficient pressure,
excessive load and overspeed. Avoid excessive
load and overspeed in order to keep tires in
good shape.
