will affect tire wear. Make sure to look for
cracking, bulging, uneven tread wear, etc.
Check and adjust tire pressures before and
after each trip. Always check and adjust with
the tires cold. Never add or release pressure
from the tires when they are hot (after having
driven a mile or more).
Replacement
If you experience a flat tire on your RV while
driving, gradually decrease your vehicle speed
(if possible). Hold the steering wheel firmly and
move the RV to a safe place on the side of the
road. If a tire needs to be replaced, make sure
it is the same size and load capacity as those
originally supplied with your trailer. Refer to the
RV Federal Certification label for the proper
tire size and load range. If you have further
questions, consult with your RV dealer or local
tire store.
Vinyl Tire Cover (If So Equipped)
Your tires are manufactured with components
that cause “bleeding” onto the tire cover. To
prevent this, it is recommended to use a
separator (garbage bag, paper, cloth, etc.)
between the tire and the cover.
Spare Tire Carrier (If So Equipped)
The spare tire is mounted on the rear bumper.
To remove the spare tire from the tire carrier
1. Remove the lug nuts holding the tire in
place.
2. Pull the tire from the tire carrier.
To install the spare tire on the tire carrier
1. Place the tire on the tire carrier
2. Install the lug nuts.
3. Make sure the lug nuts are tightened
securely before returning to travel.
Changing the tire
1. Keep the RV attached to the tow vehicle.
Block the tire on the opposite side of the
RV from the tire you are changing.
2. Loosen the wheel lug on the tire you are
changing before jacking up the RV. DO
NOT remove the lug nuts; only loosen
them for ease of removal when the tire is
off the ground.
3. Locate the main frame rail of the trailer (it
spans from the front-to-back just inside the
tires).
4. To raise the RV, place the jack (hydraulic
or screw) under the main frame rail. It must
be just ahead of the front tire or just behind
the rear tire.

SECTION 6
PRE-TRAVEL INFORMATION
WARNING
Be sure to use only tires that are rated for
trailer use. The use of passenger tires
should be avoided. The load rating/ range
embossed on the sidewall of passenger
tires must be de-rated accordingly they do
not have the same load capability as tires
that are specifically identified for trailer use.
Failure to use tires that are properly
matched to your recreation vehicle could
lead to premature tire wear or less than
optimum trailer handling.
WARNING
When replacing a tire make sure to replace
it with a tire of the same size and
specifications (refer to the Federal
Certification label information.)
WARNING
Never raise the RV by placing the jack
under the axle beam, springs or any
attachment parts. Failure to comply could
result in property damage, personal injury
or death.
