Service tyres safely
WARNING
Failure to follow the correct procedure
when fitting a tyre on a wheel or rim can
produce an explosion which may result in
serious injury or death.
Do not attempt to fit a tyre unless you
have the proper equipment and experience
to perform the job. Have the work carried
out by ITMCO Dealer or a qualified repair
service.
When sealing tyre beads onto rims,
never exceed 2.4 bar (35 lbf/in) or the
maximum inflation pressure specified by
the tyre manufacturer for fitting tyres.
Inflation beyond this maximum pres-
sure may break the bead , or even the rim,
with a dangerous explosive force. If both
beads are not seated when the maximum
recommended pressure is reached, deflate,
reposition the tyre, relubricate the bead,
and reinflate. Observe the following safety
The implement and/or tractor must be
supported on suitable blocks or stands,
NOT a hydraulic jack.
Check all nuts and bolts periodically
for tightness, especially wheel hub and
rim nuts.
Check the power steering reservoir (if
fitted) regularly and top-up as necessary
with an ITMCO approved fluid.
Check the brakes regularly, and ad-
just where necessary. Make sure that the
brakes are evenly adjusted, especially
when using a trailer.
Check the brake fluid reservoir and
top-up as necessary. If the fluid level con-
tinually falls report it to ITMCO Dealer im-
mediately so that the fault can be rectified
(see maintenance section).

The top link must not be extended be-
yond the point where the threads begin to
show.
